THE best express tutorial on youtube, I have been working with express for several years but haven't seen video this simple for beginners to understand, you really have great ability for content creation
the talking is fine for me. too slow sometimes take me to my bed :) lol. anyway thanks for this wonderful comment. just learning nodejs , express and typescript
@@rxtechandtrading That is what the pause button and time slider are for. He does speak fast but you can slow him down or stop while your brain catches up.
All this stuff might be basic but other youtubers create 3-4 hours of tute just to deliver the same content. So considering this is only half an hour, I'd say this is a really efficient video. @@sepmercury5180
This is mindblowing what's possible. I'm thankful for this tutorial 🙏🏽 One of the best ever. You literally did not stop for a second, waste any time or stutter and it seems like you did it in one take. I can't imagine how much preparation this took.
Wait but for real why is this guy the only one to ever made a video that is truly “how to for beginners”. Thank god for this man. I searched for weeks for a beginner tutorials but literally all videos were meant for advanced. Like hello what do the folders mean and how to structure them. Thanks a lot for being the one and only that can actually help me learn.
great tutorial that covered 5 classes of my training in just 36 mins with clear understanding and new concepts as well that haven't taught in our training and this video made me to learn express in a easy way . Thank you so much for saving my time.🖤
Best video tutorial I have watched. I also learned express.js (at least the basic:) I have no, really no previous experience of node or express. I need to create a webserver taking URL params, execute a job on the server and send back a response. I'm now confident I can do that this afternoon. Not bad for a 35 min video. I know this can be done without express, but then I still would not know how to do it. Many thanks.
bro right?? lmfao. Way clearer and far more concise. The examples are actually useful and he didn't waste days explaining minute features a beginner does not need to get up and running and building their own projects.
full stack in uni bro what ? in which country are you I am in my final year and syllabus dates back to 2005 😂 now only they are considering updating it lol
@@ahamedsha_jr I'm not in the UK, but I study in an average UK uni. Syllabus is actually quite up to date and they teach us full stack. Obviously just basics, just barely scratching the surface, and I cannot use this to build any real-life product, but at leas tI got some understanding of full-stack.
I have followed a few tutorials (some of them were several hours long!) before watching this and I can 100% say I understood way more about how to use express with it than with any other video. It's short enough and concise enough to give you all the keys you can then build upon without being overwhelming for beginners.
You are incredibly good at explaining things very well, clearly, and concisely. I’ve struggled so much with back-end previously that recently I’ve just been repulsed from trying to progress with any aspect of it. I feel as though this video will clear that mental block for me. Thanks so much.
honestly ive been just slacking in class lecture and then following these videos and getting 100% on projects. Ur content is great and ur a great teacher
I've struggled to understand these concepts with longer tutorials, but your 30-minute video explained everything so clearly and effectively. Thank you for making it so easy to understand
I am working with Express for the first time for a college project and this tutorial is extremely helpful. I'll be coming back here many times. Thank you very much.
I checked out ALL the web dev channels on yt. REALLY. I watch every single video out there. No one makes the web easier than you. I am absolutely impressed. Thank you so much
I am starting on node js and I'm really impressed by the amount of info shared here. I don't know how long it would have taken to know the 'tricks' and best practices shared. You always share some tips in all your videos 👏
I already had foundation knowledge on expressjs before watching this, but your video taught me things I haven't come across before and in just 35 minutes. Thanks
I prefer to learn a new tool with starting watching a short crash course like this. This helps to figure out what and how you can build things. Thanks for the content!
I spent about a week shopping around different projects, and decided to use express to serve a simple webpage to practice on. I've had no problems showing a plain html file, but for the last 4 days I've been pulling my hair out getting any other sort of request not to error out. I finally decided to follow a tutorial to ensure I wasn't missing something stupid, I get to the bit about handling /users and I started getting the same issues as before. It turns out I had an enginx reverse proxy that I must have misconfigured. It was handling the first request fine, but anything outside of "/" was failing. I'm not sure what I bungled, but stopping nginx and accessing the port directly cleared it up. Great video.
Incredible man. I found a book on express but it wasn't really a high level intro but more of a nitty gritty explanation of a million things that while useful weren't what I needed to know to get up and running. This however, was perfect for that particular goal and I have taken copious notes and learned more in a couple hours with less confusion then any other video I've found on the topic here on YT. Keep it up!
@@netsider Thank you very much, I actually was looking for this very word, but you know how hard it is for us non-english to retrieve a word from memory... BTW, can you plz introduce yourself? or your twitter handle?
hes ok -he knows his stuff that's for sure-BUT in some of his vids I think he is trying to show off a bit rather than teach the concepts he is trying to relay to his viewers
@@mylesgideonprospero ummm no I don’t think so. If you wanna do anything really advanced in tech, uni is a resource second to none. My school just doesn’t put much effort into web dev cause most of us are doing real work like high performance system architecture, compiler design, etc.
I'm in a coding bootcamp through a local university, and this is a way more concise explanation than they gave for using express. It's amazing to me your content remains free. All of your content has been so helpful in not just passing the bootcamp, but also in improving my skills as a beginner dev. Thank you so much dude!
excellent beginner turotial man. I had a web exam which turned into a final exam instead of a project and had like a day to prepare for cause I got busy in other courses not to mention the fact the web classes were 8 am so yeah my fault kind a but thanks you are a life saver
This is really good coming from a MANY years experience C# programmer who's doing some NodeJS work. Really good overview of the whole process without having to have a 7 hour "how to program" course.
This video definitely helped me understand far more than the first time I messed around with express.js The way you explain it helps us conceptualize it very well and compartmentalize it in our minds. God Bless!
Amazing Tutorial! I've been struggling with backend and this gave me a normal insight into the basics. So many things made clear. :) Love it, keep up the good work. Can always count on you!
Okay, its decent, like a canvas with some imperfections. You need to explain each aspect to a greater extent. Let the art lead the way for your impeccable tutorials. May your art continue the journey with you.
I working with node about one year on a daily basis. Node is just sick javascript runtime / "programming language" if you want call it like that, and it can do everything! There is no limitations it this! Just need to imagine what you can do and here you are. Sky is the limit. It's just SICK!
Thank you for not using MongoDB, Bootstrap, and SASS like every other RUclipsr does in their tutorials -- sometimes even basic ones (I say this jokingly, but everyone knows what I'm talking about) 👍
i have a small request. u r one of the best instructor but, u go a little faster. I request as a student that kindly slowdown ur init of code(writing coad) ... Please consider my concern , if we make playback video to 1.5 , it doesnt make any sense of learning... kindly do it from now on...
wonderful tutorial. saving my butt for my internet programming course. Very interested in back-end development. In case there are anyone other newbies out there like myself trying to follow along, make sure to use the little mark on the tilde key ` to the left of the 1 key, and not the single quote to pass the ${req....} literal. took me a few minutes to find why that didn't work
Super well done and very comprehensive. I learned more form this video than many others put together. It was sort of like drinking from a firehose - so much good information in a short bit. Watched it in part, and repeated sections. Definitely bookmarking this. One of the best.
Fun Tips: After Several Days Of Unsuccessfully posting form data from our express client to server - we have identified several issues that weren't obvious to in express documents and tutorials! app.post requires app.use(express.uriencoded({extended: true})) - not needed for app.get Post and Get method for form requires NAME attribute instead of id or class to define your input app.get uses req.query.name to identify input data - but app.post uses req.body.name syntax Submit button must be placed before closing tag If everything works properly, you can view any data sent on the client with res.send(). res.send(req.body.name) or res.send(req.query.name)
I just want to say thank you for everything. Your videos have helped me understand what my bootcamp cannot in a way that makes sense to me. Also your hair is too perfect, I spent most of your videos looking at it. 😅😘 I really appreciate you!
Dude!!! Again?? You help me again so much through my coding learning progress! Big THANKS to you, my friend!! Keep going, you are doing an insane good job in explaining and showing. Amazing quality content!
I was gonna skip this one coz I thought I knew express, but I'm glad I did watch! Learning about locals and the param middleware makes me want to refactor all my old projects, haha. Thanks a lot Kyle, your content keeps getting impossibly better and better! 😄
Beautiful, I was looking at bootstrapping a project using express as I haven't used it before, this covered all the basis for me to just dive into the docs. We love you Web Dev Simplified!
wow, this is a pretty solid expressjs lecture, condensed within 40 minutes, I have learned something new, salute to Kyle. I wonder if Kyle can make a simple multiple player game kinda like tic tac toe, snake or shooting game with socketio or firebase that allow each people (maybe two people) operate his character at the same time, it would be fun to learn from Kyle, you know 😀
Really good tutorial, doesn`t teach all the functions cuz them u can search on docs of express, but he explains really well the concepts that are most important. I learned much with this tutorial! Please keep doing this classes with other libraries
THE best express tutorial on youtube, I have been working with express for several years but haven't seen video this simple for beginners to understand, you really have great ability for content creation
He speaks so fast. I slow it down to 0.75 speed and it sounds normal. Maybe im just getting old 😀
@@TheBaltyboys I did that. He sounds high at that speed. 🤣

its definatly NOT the best-this guy is moving way to fast-his channel is probably beter for more advanced developers

Fun Tips: After Several Days Of Unsuccessfully posting form data from our express client to server - we have identified several issues that weren't obvious to in express documents and tutorials!
app.post requires app.use(express.uriencoded({extended: true})) - not needed for app.get
Post and Get method for form requires NAME attribute instead of id or class to define your input
app.get uses req.query.name to identify input data - but app.post uses req.body.name syntax
Submit button must be placed before closing tag
If everything works properly, you can view any data sent on the client with res.send(). res.send(req.body.name) or res.send(req.query.name)
