nodejs where to start?

Question

I\'ve installed nodejs and ran couple of simple examples like opening a server on a port and listen on that port.

However, I still can not relate nodejs to web develop

Answer 1

First Just try to implement basic application and get a feel of the framework. There are several tutorials online for example:

http://net.tutsplus.com/tutorials/javascript-ajax/learning-serverside-javascript-with-node-js/

Documentation at http://nodejs.org/

http://howtonode.org/

Also there is a 70 min screencast by peepcode which costs 9$

There are also several apps on github, which you take a look at. Reading code is always the best.
