I discovered Node.js some time ago ( when it was version0.2.x) and finally, I have the time to dabble with it a few days ago. The following is a summary of various resources I have collected and found useful while learning about Node.js If you are just starting out, you can check out :
The Web Development Series is supported by Rackspace , the better way to do hosting. Learn more about Rackspace's hosting solutions here . On the 20th floor of a San Francisco skyscraper, a handful of developers are working on a new technology that's changing the way real-time web apps are built and how they scale. This technology, called Node.js , is being hailed as "the new Ruby on Rails" by some in the developer community. But it's not a magic bullet, nor is it appropriate for all programming scenarios.
I've written about Erlang in the past, and my suspicion that, soon or later, other languages/systems will come along and "eat its lunch". Scala is one such potential contender. Another that has been gaining some visiblity lately is node.js , a simple framework for creating networked applications on top of Google's V8 Javascript engine.
Update: I just updated the code so it works with node v0.1.18. Not excited by hello world in node.js? No problem. Let's say you are a startup focusing on upload technology and you want the maximum level of control for your file uploads.
