Mastering Node

Posted by: Mike Girouard on 09/06/2010

@codepo8 was kind enough to share a link to Mastering Node, an open source eBook on NodeJS.

It’s still a work in progress, but it’s the most complete I’ve seen so far. There’s no formal table of contents, but if you peek at the Makefile, you can get a clear idea on the topics covered so far:

  • Installing Node
  • CommonJS Module System
  • Globals
  • Events
  • Buffers
  • Streams
  • File System
  • TCP
  • HTTP
  • Connect
  • Express
  • Testing
  • Deployment

The easiest thing to to is to clone the repo and build the book (htmldoc req’d) that way you always have the latest and greatest. If you’re lazy, just browse the repo’s .md files or download the PDF that is already built.
