This is a most AMAZING Node JS beginner course for literally a complete beginner out there! I had total ZERO knowledge of backend (NODE), and got to understand everything he explained here! This guy is so kind and calm in explaining things thoroughly! I love the way he tries to not miss any single detail...

If you're confused on the event loop, a call back function will ran last because it is a message event. All functions in your program have to complete before the callback function will run your code. So Ex: Console. log('One') setTimeout(()=>{ console.log('two') Callback gets stored into quene until everything finishes running. },0) console.log('three') It prints out One three two and not One, Two, Three. This is useful because it can run everything while it's getting data from somewhere else, maybe reading a file. If we do it synchronously and we have something that takes a while to load, then everything else will stop and wait for it to get the data back. Hope this helps someone lol
The Tutorial is gold, just great, very informative, and nicely explained. The only problem is that after a particular point the video and audio sync go out of sync, please try to correct it if possible because that makes it confusing to understand.

Just want to say this is awesome, got confused after watching several short videos & crash courses🥴😵💫 that try to fit node.js nd express in 1/2hrs on youtube...it was totally mind-bugling, most times they leave several complex logic out just because they want to finish their video..But you're different and your videos are awesome...you take your time out to deliver awesome content, fully understandable ...If youre watching this and wondering why it's 8hrs, pls carve out time to watch it through. John Smilga videos are the best..I'm heading over to watch your React 10hrs videos...Cant wait to see MongoDB tutorial soon...Want to become a Full stack MERN developer...Just started JS a month ago, lol
Such a good tutorial! John constantly tells us not to panic as he patiently explains all the basics with plenty of examples. I feel so much more reassured for my project after learning this. Hopefully I will be able to build something good.
You have actually improved in your speech/pronunciation/vocals and I believe you have been working on it and you can really do more, I really love your course contents, you really deliver good contents, thanks for the course.
i loved the course but the pronunciacion was really bad, i can understand everything but the "aaaaand" and the "and thaaaan" are really annoying after 7 hours xD
i just completed the course, it took me an entire week but the learnings i got from this course i dont think i will get anywhere else thanks John Smilga for this epic course!!
Impressive that you completed it in a week - if you are a beginner - great going brother - how are you doing now - did you crack that dream job? Would love to know your story
@@vishnuvnair1725 sorry for the late reply brother, but yeah i still havnt cracked that dream job but i have been hustling since and i know the day isnt far now i am giving my 100% waiting for the opportunity and give my everything to it regarding the course it is good for the starting however you need to get your hands dirty in order to learn anything and building projects by yourself is the only way around so start builidng projects by yourself you can start by very small just start a server add some models to it and do basic api integration and you can slowly move ahead surely you will succeed AND WHENEVER I WILL GET PLACED I WILL MESSAGE YOU SURELY !!
I can't thank you enough for this beautiful piece of work John, 3 hours in and I'm still hooked on your practical method of teaching. I ran into an issue while installing nodemon globally, something about an ExecutionPolicy Preventing me from running script on my windows machine. Here is how I resolved it for anyone facing thesame issue: 1. press the window button your keyboard 2. Type 'PowerShell' and run as an administrator. 3. In your power shell type in the following command: Set-ExecutionPolicy 4. Press 'Enter' and type in 'RemoteSigned' as the response for ExecutionPolicy then press 'Enter' again 5. Press 'y' and press 'Enter' to effect change. You should be able to install nodemon globally and run "nodemon app.js" from the tutorial on your editor without error. We keep pushing till we get there! Good luck!
@@bestinbabu4244 Hey! In my opinion, you need to have a general understanding of vanilla JavaScript paying attention to ES6 classes, callbacks, promises and async await. Before you get nervous, please remember you don't have to be comfortable with them, the goal is to be familiar with how they work.. he has a 'JavaScript nuggets' series on his channel "coding addict" that would help you in this regard. To make things further easier for you, you need to have an idea on how HTML and CSS are structured, just the basics. I hope this helps, stay safe.
I seriously am scared for disappearing this channel ,I'm like hurrying to learn as many as I can from it as fast as possible. it really is a great opportunity , I recommend it
I still need around 2 hours to finish the full tutorial, however, I want to thank you for making such a good one for free, I had been learning frontend stuff for around a month just as a hobby and I was always so confused about how certain websites did stuff because I didn't know about how servers work, now that I have a basic understanding of how they do web development doesn't seem that daunting.
Just over 3hrs in. For the first time in my life, I had to slow a video down to 0.75. The content is good, maybe even great. I'm just used to people going so slow that I have to speed up the video, so they don't slow me down. NOT the case with this guy. I'm planning on coming back to this comment when the video is finished to see how I feel about what I've said.
At 5hr 50m in, I've been back to normal speed for a while. I'm much more interested at this point. The beginning of this tutorial teaches you a lot, but it's teaching you what not to do before you finally learn the correct way. At this point, I feel like I could've gotten by without knowing all of the incorrect methods, HOWEVER, I've been programming in other languages since my teens. I'm just not a full-time programmer. I'm still trying to figure out why you would ever use blocking code in NodeJS when the whole idea behind NodeJS is it being non-blocking. Anyway, I'm sure I'll learn more about that in the rest of the video. So far, so good!
Aaaaaaaand I'm finished. I didn't realize this was only a portion of the tutorial. lol. I should probably get acquainted with what I've been shown in this portion before I proceed further anyway. Not sure if it was me or if it's the video, but the audio was out of sync during the last hour or so. It wasn't too bad..
I can't believe I watched this video all the way through and followed every single one of your instructions. The course is very suitable for newbies like me. Thank you John!
@@ankursinger102 I think you need to take the time to learn and practice through this video too. Do your best, buddy! ruclips.net/video/qwfE7fSVaZM/видео.html
I think there is some lag about 3 to 5 sec between audio and video, hope you will look over it. And the content that you have provided is very helpful. Thank you for this.....
Thank you! I was looking for a back-end course after a not-so-good attempt at "learning it", but then I came across this amazing course. Mr. Smilga's way of explaining is very clear and at a very good pace, especially for beginners.
Doing it for just under two hours and so far I only sought after info about few methods in order to better understand the syntax of them, which is a quite the usual thing when you are doing a tutorial. To me, the course is concise, clear and very easy to follow - and this comes from a beginner! All Aces & recommendations from me! 🙂
For anyone wondering if JS functions can include arrow functions in their parameters like the fs.readFile() method, yes that's normal in JS, the catch in fs read and write file is that they are actually based on callbacks that's why they look that way while callback methods in custom functions follow the generic callback format.
wow, I finished the whole tutorial, very good one because it explains why things work the way they do - get over the monotonous speech tone and you'll end up with a gem, thank you John Smilga, I'll watch all other tutorials and buy the node & react extensive courses
Awesome video, learning so much this is incredible. Just small side note (and maybe its just me), but the audio video seems to be lagging the audio by a few seconds. Thanks!
didn't anyone noticed or is it just me who thinks the audio in the half of the video is coming late it is delayed and you can clearly see that whenever he is trying to access the browser for example visit this time stamp: 5:26:45 you will notice that his voice is really delayed and there's something wrong!
Great course, learned so much from the course. Everything was explained in simple terms and I love how you showed us what could go wrong and explained why. One thing, the last 2 hours were pretty hard to follow because of the audio delay. Would love for that to be fixed
I would like to say that yes it is difficult to follow as you mentioned because of the audio delay. So I would provide a handy solution for every one else read your comment. You could open 2 same tabs and move forward the one that you watch by 10 seconds and mute it.
This is the best Node course I've found on youtube and sometimes I don't believe that's for free, just pick and watch. You will not regret to watch this 8 hour course, quite the opposite, you'll want more!
For those struggling with the audio bad sync halfway through the video, go watch it on john's channel directly I only figured this out after finishing the video so Im trying to save everyone else that come after haha ruclips.net/video/TNV0_7QRDwY/видео.html
I have an assignment due on Monday evening. More than halfway through on 2x speed and I can memorize most of it easily. Great pacing throughout the course and enough visual repetition and explanation to follow along. Love it!
Hi. Do you know if he creates the example web app in the course or is that part cut out? I am asking because I just started the course and didn't see any example in the video timestamps. I will still watch the whole course but I learn the best with real examples
I'm not a native English speaker, at the time when I first headed into this course, the instructor's pronunciation shocked me, but thank god, I persisted, now I'm at 4 hours and begin to enjoy the instructor's amazing tone. These contents are brilliant!
I had attended some paid courses, but this free course by John is far better. It is simple, comprehensive and direct to the point without any fluff. Thank you, John, for spreading your knowledge.
Yes while the course is not too much explaination and right to the coding, it will be difficult for you to answer questions if interviewer asks you certain questions, which is generally the case.
Thanks for providing this kind of course. Very helpful. My only recommendation is to realize that the audio gets out of sync with the video. Try to reduce the frequency of clicking back and forth between files and pause for a moment after completing code before jumping to another screen.
I have been learning from John's content for 5 months now and purchased the Udemy full courses for both Nodejs and React. He has the most comprehensive courses and he will equip you with all the tools to create a very functional full stack application from back to front using the latest tools. Simply superb.
Thanks for your effort, sir! This course help me a lot! As a learner, I want to give you some feedback! At the first half part of the course, all goes smoothly. But at the last half part of the course, I feel the audio track are not match with video track. This is not a big problem but I think this course will be nicer if this issue can be fixed! Thank you again, sir!
This course is good but the audio is so mismatched from the video (like 5 to 10 seconds) and it makes it really difficult to follow. It would be nice if you could upload it again with the audio correctly edited
I'm half way through this course it's really good ,i learned things like how to create custom event,http create server ..etc manythings ,i suggest everyone to understand callbacks, promises and async and awit concepts it will help u to understand the course much better and faster
John keeps on saying: "Just so you guys know, I'm not cheating" I'm like John, we do not think you are cheating. Simply amazing course content, pace and teaching style.
You know, we wouldnt mind if you have to divide this video in 2 parts just so you can upload it in full. But i want to thank you with all my heart for putting up this tutorial because i am on the path of learning node js and this is the first tutorial that i will be watching and learning from :)
Finished the whole course. Loved the content and it actually shows us how to work with an architecture that was really amazing. As in the industry standard projects we usually follow these approaches to make our life easy.
Yes, I also used if-else approach. I think it kept on crashing as it is getting two re.end() statements. One from if() and second at the end of callback function.
Almost 2 days (2 times speed video, I'm a web developer) doing it, a really good course John I'm a developer but a long time since I have done anything so I'm like refreshing my mind to start off again, really clear. I will follow the next one to build 4 projects in Node and Express course.
Thank you sir, I was procrastinating from last 1 year, took a paid course but did not do it. Finally in 5-6 days I have completed this lecture as my mentor told me to finish it asap for an internship, and I am feeling very confident and happy that I have done it with good fundamental knowledge.. Thank you very much..
The end was abrupt, the course has more parts where he finally makes a database connection he promised in the beginning...but any idea where are those?

If you're confused on the event loop, a call back function will ran last because it is a message event. All functions in your program have to complete before the callback function will run your code.
So Ex:

setTimeout(()=>{

It prints out

two
and not One, Two, Three.

Just want to say this is awesome, got confused after watching several short videos & crash courses🥴😵💫 that try to fit node.js nd express in 1/2hrs on youtube...it was totally mind-bugling, most times they leave several complex logic out just because they want to finish their video..But you're different and your videos are awesome...you take your time out to deliver awesome content, fully understandable ...If youre watching this and wondering why it's 8hrs, pls carve out time to watch it through. John Smilga videos are the best..I'm heading over to watch your React 10hrs videos...Cant wait to see MongoDB tutorial soon...Want to become a Full stack MERN developer...Just started JS a month ago, lol
Just finished the course and for me this is one of the best and detailed node js course i have seen so far.
Is it still updaed?
Where is the rest of this course?
@@berkantasci8811 Udemy
Such a good tutorial! John constantly tells us not to panic as he patiently explains all the basics with plenty of examples. I feel so much more reassured for my project after learning this. Hopefully I will be able to build something good.
is this course still valid to take today, or node content has changed since the creation of the course?
@@OsmAnaa for the basic, it still valid
You have actually improved in your speech/pronunciation/vocals and I believe you have been working on it and you can really do more, I really love your course contents, you really deliver good contents, thanks for the course.
i loved the course but the pronunciacion was really bad, i can understand everything but the "aaaaand" and the "and thaaaan" are really annoying after 7 hours xD
Thanks for people who create these types of contents for free. You are doing what universities are supposed to do.
Just can't express how complete, detailed and concise this 8 hour course is!!!
Bet you can Express after completing the course ;)
@@vedantsharma5876 lol
me: nodes in agreement
i just completed the course, it took me an entire week but the learnings i got from this course i dont think i will get anywhere else thanks John Smilga for this epic course!!
yes it will probably take like 6-7 days on a normal pace like 2 hours watching and taking notes and understanding stuff!
Impressive that you completed it in a week - if you are a beginner - great going brother - how are you doing now - did you crack that dream job? Would love to know your story
@@vishnuvnair1725 sorry for the late reply brother, but yeah i still havnt cracked that dream job but i have been hustling since and i know the day isnt far now i am giving my 100% waiting for the opportunity and give my everything to it
regarding the course it is good for the starting however you need to get your hands dirty in order to learn anything and building projects by yourself is the only way around so start builidng projects by yourself you can start by very small just start a server add some models to it and do basic api integration and you can slowly move ahead surely you will succeed
AND WHENEVER I WILL GET PLACED I WILL MESSAGE YOU SURELY !!
I can't thank you enough for this beautiful piece of work John, 3 hours in and I'm still hooked on your practical method of teaching.
I ran into an issue while installing nodemon globally, something about an ExecutionPolicy Preventing me from running script on my windows machine. Here is how I resolved it for anyone facing thesame issue:
1. press the window button your keyboard
2. Type 'PowerShell' and run as an administrator.
3. In your power shell type in the following command: Set-ExecutionPolicy
4. Press 'Enter' and type in 'RemoteSigned' as the response for ExecutionPolicy then press 'Enter' again
5. Press 'y' and press 'Enter' to effect change.
You should be able to install nodemon globally and run "nodemon app.js" from the tutorial on your editor without error.
We keep pushing till we get there! Good luck!
hey i am planning to watch this course ..i dont have any frontend knowlege .. can i learn node.js without knowing frontend
@@bestinbabu4244 Hey! In my opinion, you need to have a general understanding of vanilla JavaScript paying attention to ES6 classes, callbacks, promises and async await.
Before you get nervous, please remember you don't have to be comfortable with them, the goal is to be familiar with how they work.. he has a 'JavaScript nuggets' series on his channel "coding addict" that would help you in this regard.
To make things further easier for you, you need to have an idea on how HTML and CSS are structured, just the basics.
I hope this helps, stay safe.
@@fixitm365 thanks a lot dude...are you on discord..if so Id please?
I seriously am scared for disappearing this channel ,I'm like hurrying to learn as many as I can from it as fast as possible. it really is a great opportunity , I recommend it
Download it lol
Why? Is it gonna be taken down or what?
It's not going to disappear for no reason???
I still need around 2 hours to finish the full tutorial, however, I want to thank you for making such a good one for free, I had been learning frontend stuff for around a month just as a hobby and I was always so confused about how certain websites did stuff because I didn't know about how servers work, now that I have a basic understanding of how they do web development doesn't seem that daunting.
Are we still expecting the Database part??? Really good content. Thanks John
I really hope it was there, but sadly it's not.
@@cenacr007 is there something that has been left uncompleted in this course ??
@@nahmandem i think that in his own chanel, Codding Addict, is the other part where he creates a small project explain MongoDB and mongoose
this is continuation
ruclips.net/video/jIsj0upCBAM/видео.html
I guess these is the next part. I'm just starting to watch, so can't guarantee ruclips.net/video/qwfE7fSVaZM/видео.html
This is by far the only youtube tutorial good enough that ive watched the whole 8 hours of it.
Just over 3hrs in. For the first time in my life, I had to slow a video down to 0.75. The content is good, maybe even great. I'm just used to people going so slow that I have to speed up the video, so they don't slow me down. NOT the case with this guy. I'm planning on coming back to this comment when the video is finished to see how I feel about what I've said.
At 5hr 50m in, I've been back to normal speed for a while. I'm much more interested at this point. The beginning of this tutorial teaches you a lot, but it's teaching you what not to do before you finally learn the correct way. At this point, I feel like I could've gotten by without knowing all of the incorrect methods, HOWEVER, I've been programming in other languages since my teens. I'm just not a full-time programmer. I'm still trying to figure out why you would ever use blocking code in NodeJS when the whole idea behind NodeJS is it being non-blocking. Anyway, I'm sure I'll learn more about that in the rest of the video. So far, so good!
Aaaaaaaand I'm finished. I didn't realize this was only a portion of the tutorial. lol. I should probably get acquainted with what I've been shown in this portion before I proceed further anyway. Not sure if it was me or if it's the video, but the audio was out of sync during the last hour or so. It wasn't too bad..
@@chadsvbhey, just wanted to ask that, you completed the course so can you recommend this for a beginner, is it really helpful, please reply 🙏
I searched for this video yesterday, and I think to myself: - "Was it a dream?"
Same dud
me too😁
Did he add q end point that gives all fields that matches the given query am unable do it , did he add that end point if yes what's the time stamp
Unreal . 8 hour videos everyday.
me to
Can't believe I actually finished the whole tutorial!
Thanks a lot! Though by the end, I felt like the audio and the video weren't exactly matching.
Bro how was the video. Is it fully understandable. Do you know node and express.js fully now?
Thanks for this explanatory video.
You will be proud of yourself as it is helping learners all around the globe.
Love from India.
I can't believe I watched this video all the way through and followed every single one of your instructions. The course is very suitable for newbies like me. Thank you John!
hey bro can i get internship after this course???
@@ankursinger102 I think you need to take the time to learn and practice through this video too. Do your best, buddy! ruclips.net/video/qwfE7fSVaZM/видео.html
@@duykhanhtrandev Thnks a lot bro...
I think there is some lag about 3 to 5 sec between audio and video, hope you will look over it. And the content that you have provided is very helpful. Thank you for this.....
the course is exactly what I wanted, I feel I was lucky when started watching this among other courses
Thanks John for creating this course. He is the best teacher of all the coding courses I've done.
Thank you! I was looking for a back-end course after a not-so-good attempt at "learning it", but then I came across this amazing course. Mr. Smilga's way of explaining is very clear and at a very good pace, especially for beginners.
Doing it for just under two hours and so far I only sought after info about few methods in order to better understand the syntax of them, which is a quite the usual thing when you are doing a tutorial. To me, the course is concise, clear and very easy to follow - and this comes from a beginner! All Aces & recommendations from me! 🙂
For anyone wondering if JS functions can include arrow functions in their parameters like the fs.readFile() method, yes that's normal in JS, the catch in fs read and write file is that they are actually based on callbacks that's why they look that way while callback methods in custom functions follow the generic callback format.
Coding Addict , You're the man.
Thank you very much, i just finished the whole 8 hrs, I learnt alot
Fantastic course . I wish the sound and video was sync
wow, I finished the whole tutorial, very good one because it explains why things work the way they do - get over the monotonous speech tone and you'll end up with a gem, thank you John Smilga, I'll watch all other tutorials and buy the node & react extensive courses
Honestly saying this is pure gold for those who want to learn Nodejs completely for software development purpose or internship .
Appreciate your efforts on uploading content. Just my constructive feedback is that the audio is somewhat slower than the video at some point.
I also noticed it.
Yes exactly
This course was very useful for me, thank you very much. Some of the audio it's out of sync, but i don't really care. Awesome content!
Awesome video, learning so much this is incredible. Just small side note (and maybe its just me), but the audio video seems to be lagging the audio by a few seconds. Thanks!
I'm 2 hours in this project and I'm really enjoying the content. Thanks for putting so much hard work guys
Hi, is this course still up to date or deprecated?
@@vinaymanala1568 I think it's a pretty nice course. Basics remains the same no matter what's the new version. I hope it answers your question
John is a genius for showing the asynchronous nature of node by making the video and the audio asynchronous 😂
I had just finished John's React course, this will come in handy
let's collaborate
didn't anyone noticed or is it just me who thinks the audio in the half of the video is coming late it is delayed and you can clearly see that whenever he is trying to access the browser for example visit this time stamp: 5:26:45 you will notice that his voice is really delayed and there's something wrong!
and also on this time stamp 5:27:35
and this 5:29:10 he's reading the second para even after closing that tab how?
Great course, learned so much from the course. Everything was explained in simple terms and I love how you showed us what could go wrong and explained why. One thing, the last 2 hours were pretty hard to follow because of the audio delay. Would love for that to be fixed
how long did it take you to complete this video course. I spent two days but still in 4 hours
I would like to say that yes it is difficult to follow as you mentioned because of the audio delay. So I would provide a handy solution for every one else read your comment. You could open 2 same tabs and move forward the one that you watch by 10 seconds and mute it.
@@UzairSalim-dy3uz Took me about a week!
@@gtsif7113 That's a really good idea haha
bruh. Im still in 4 hours, started this a month ago, lol@@UzairSalim-dy3uz
Very optimized course, no extra talking, everything to the point also touch every single aspect and endpoints. Loved it ❤
This is the best Node course I've found on youtube and sometimes I don't believe that's for free, just pick and watch. You will not regret to watch this 8 hour course, quite the opposite, you'll want more!
For those struggling with the audio bad sync halfway through the video, go watch it on john's channel directly I only figured this out after finishing the video so Im trying to save everyone else that come after haha ruclips.net/video/TNV0_7QRDwY/видео.html

Hi. Do you know if he creates the example web app in the course or is that part cut out? I am asking because I just started the course and didn't see any example in the video timestamps. I will still watch the whole course but I learn the best with real examples
If there are 5-star courses, this is definitely one
I'm not a native English speaker, at the time when I first headed into this course, the instructor's pronunciation shocked me, but thank god, I persisted, now I'm at 4 hours and begin to enjoy the instructor's amazing tone. These contents are brilliant!
I was just watching this in coding addict and boom! 💥 I get a notification in here!
I had attended some paid courses, but this free course by John is far better. It is simple, comprehensive and direct to the point without any fluff. Thank you, John, for spreading your knowledge.
Same 😢
Yes while the course is not too much explaination and right to the coding, it will be difficult for you to answer questions if interviewer asks you certain questions, which is generally the case.
is this course still valid to take today, or node content has changed since the creation of the course?
Thanks for providing this kind of course. Very helpful. My only recommendation is to realize that the audio gets out of sync with the video. Try to reduce the frequency of clicking back and forth between files and pause for a moment after completing code before jumping to another screen.
bro. u pause. not him. brew
Guys I got a backend developer job MERN , Its been 3 years since this video was uploaded. It's safe to watch and commit to this video in 2024.
I have been learning from John's content for 5 months now and purchased the Udemy full courses for both Nodejs and React. He has the most comprehensive courses and he will equip you with all the tools to create a very functional full stack application from back to front using the latest tools. Simply superb.
Thanks for your effort, sir! This course help me a lot!
As a learner, I want to give you some feedback!
At the first half part of the course, all goes smoothly.
But at the last half part of the course, I feel the audio track are not match with video track.
This is not a big problem but I think this course will be nicer if this issue can be fixed!
Thank you again, sir!
does the voice delay remains the whole video or for sometime only???
The audio sync issue isn't there in John's channel. Here's the link:

Thanks for the Info bro
Love this course! So much info with clarity. Thank you so much. You guys rock!
The dislikers, they must naturally be haters! People are paying a lot of money in school to learn way less than this.
It's the civies
They may be crawlers
This course is good but the audio is so mismatched from the video (like 5 to 10 seconds) and it makes it really difficult to follow. It would be nice if you could upload it again with the audio correctly edited
I'm half way through this course it's really good ,i learned things like how to create custom event,http create server ..etc manythings ,i suggest everyone to understand callbacks, promises and async and awit concepts it will help u to understand the course much better and faster
I love when he says "bravely click into this one" when talking about looking at headers.
John keeps on saying: "Just so you guys know, I'm not cheating"
I'm like John, we do not think you are cheating.
Simply amazing course content, pace and teaching style.
Very well explained. One of the best tutors ever. Many thanks John
You know, we wouldnt mind if you have to divide this video in 2 parts just so you can upload it in full. But i want to thank you with all my heart for putting up this tutorial because i am on the path of learning node js and this is the first tutorial that i will be watching and learning from :)
Searching for best backend node.js fundamental and this is the one! Thanks.
Finished the whole course. Loved the content and it actually shows us how to work with an architecture that was really amazing. As in the industry standard projects we usually follow these approaches to make our life easy.
Does it contain graphql?
@@Mohammedmansour111 nope
@@gautambedi591 sorry meant Graphql, thanks btw
Awesome course. Just one thing: I had to change the code in "async patterns" and return after every if statement. Otherwise server kept crashing
Yes, you are right. Other alternative is change if conditions to if-if else-if and it will work fine
Yes, I also used if-else approach. I think it kept on crashing as it is getting two re.end() statements. One from if() and second at the end of callback function.
It happened to ,me also and that what I did, then it became fine. Awesome course by the way!
Thank you for this great course! But I have to note that about halfway through the video, the audio and video are offset by a second or two.
Almost 2 days (2 times speed video, I'm a web developer) doing it, a really good course John I'm a developer but a long time since I have done anything so I'm like refreshing my mind to start off again, really clear. I will follow the next one to build 4 projects in Node and Express course.
Thank you sir, I was procrastinating from last 1 year, took a paid course but did not do it. Finally in 5-6 days I have completed this lecture as my mentor told me to finish it asap for an internship, and I am feeling very confident and happy that I have done it with good fundamental knowledge.. Thank you very much..
Is there an audio delay or I just felt it?
Anyway, best course for beginners❤
yes there is delay
Yes, there is
Yup, there is a 10 seconds delay on the later part of the course
Great course!
However if we can get a fix on the delay that would be awesome
