Part 1
Getting Up to Speed on Node.js 8

Node.js is a powerful platform for developing server-side JavaScript.

In this first part, you’ll write Node.js code, beginning with the familiar domain of the command line and then expanding into the realm of microservices. Along the way, you’ll learn to structure your code into modules, use third-party modules from npm, and take advantage of the latest ECMAScript language features.
