This Node CLI course would be a great help for me to improve my skills, building cli tools to automate part of my work routine!

[promethewz]

I love javascript and as a student and self-taught developer, it would be a great opportunity to learn from this course.
I have learned electron js and I think I could make something great with this CLI knowledge.

[ajimbong]

I've always wanted to do automation tasks without learning a new language like Python. I would really love to do it with the language I know and love (JavaScript) and this course can help me achieve that 🙏

I have to run a lot of scripts to prepare data and interact with a database. This course will be perfect to master my scripts.

[FranciscoMarcosMilhomemAbreu]

You are awesome! This is what I would train now!

[mahneh]

Wow, you have improved a lot. Well done.

[TomHermans]

Ahmad making it and you endorsing it makes me curious enough. That and the fact that I automate all the things so very interested in a new tool in my belt.

[StefanoPompa]

I will use this video to make snmp requests from cli. Thanks again!

"There is my email... Don't email me please" You are the best James! Great video

[adnanelegeek]

I'm a sucker for automation, i usually do it with python, but i would like to push myself to do it with node to get better at it, this course would be a great kick start.

[diegognoatto]

after 60 minutes of my finite life lost searching for it, bommmm you were the chosen one. thanks for the tips.

[shadowplay]

how to run the cli like "my-cli -d" instead of "./index.js -d"?

[sokunmeng]

Since my favorite language is JavaScript and Node is the framework that I’m working on. So Node CLI, for sure, is get me interested. Nonetheless, I hope that I get the best tools from you, James:).

I bought Ahmads course a while back and love it

[RealCaptainAwesome]

I don't love Javascript, but I'm interested in the course. Maybe it will change my mind.

[leewenger]

This is great stuff. One thing that was really confusing to me was about how the index.js magically became executable just by adding a permission until I watched some other videos that explained the shebang functionality that actually tells the terminal how to run this file in node... you might have explained that here but I missed that piece of information. The content was really helpful overall - thanks!

[richardmartin]

Hi, great video! I'm looking to create a sdk around our apis at work. I liked the aws cdk pattern and was going to do something similar. I'm interested in the course if still available. Thx!

Hey James, do you have any videos on how to edit existing react sites? I'm a new dev and the previous dev made the apps in vscode. I can't get the app to compile or debug, keeps missing things even though I've run npm install to get the dependencies.

[seanlearnscode]

I want to love Javascript like you. Totally new to the language.

What's the addon you use for the console autocomplete suggestions? That looks neat
