Node.js Infrastructure: Part 1. Modules · joyent/node Wiki. This page is deprecated. Feel free to add to it, but be advised that it is, at best, a faded relic of Node modules that were written before npm was a dominant force in the Node.js ecosystem. It is not all that useful any more. If you are a newcomer, it can be handy to at least get a starting point. However, note that there are many tens of thousands of modules in the npm registry, and only just under 2,000 modules here. So, this list is long enough to be intimidating, but still only captures a tiny sliver of the Node.js modules you can use with your program. What's worse, it's almost never updated, and cannot hope to highlight the changes that are happening in this busy ecosystem. Search for modules with npmjs.org, node-modules, node-toolbox and nipster. The archaic contents of this once-useful page now follow.

Node.js Step by Step: Blogging Application. In the previous episode in this session, you were introduced to Node.js by creating a simple web server that displayed the obligatory "Hello world" text. Today, we'll take our knowledge to the next level as we begin the implementation of our blog engine application. During the course of this, episode we'll be adding our very first route and view. To do this, we'll learn a little more about Node's predilection for asynchronous behavior, and we'll also take a look at the File System ('fs') module for reading our first view into our application. By the end of this portion of our series, you'll have a little better understanding of Node and of one of its libraries that makes it possible to use Node for scripting.

Node.js Step by Step: Introduction. Node.js is an amazing new technology, but, unless you're specifically a JavaScript developer, the process of becoming acquainted with it can quickly become a bit overwhelming. But that's why we're here! If you want to really learn how to use Node.js, this set of articles and screencasts will do the trick. Hi guys, my name is Christopher Roach, and I'll be your guide throughout this series of screencasts on Node.js. In this series we'll be using Node to create a simple blog engine, like the one made famous in the popular Ruby on Rails introductory video. Before we get into some of the details of what Node is and why you'd want to use it, I'd like to go ahead and get us started with the installation of Node, since, though super easy, it can take some time.
