Although Node.js is a popular platform for building web services, it wasn't designed for simple website development. Express.js is a fast, minimalist framework that sits on top of Node.js and allows you to build powerful single and multipage web applications and websites. In this course, instructor Daniel Khan shows how to set up the framework and build a realistic website with these technologies. Along the way, he helps you pick up bits and pieces about Express.js and improve your overall knowledge of how to work effectively with Node.js. Learn how to build a basic application with templating engines; create more flexible, modular code with conditional statements; work with POST requests, and more.
