This guy is better than Udemy's instructors, no slide show! Congratulations!

You are absolutely amazing. I've been trying to understand nodeJS for so long. It's taken me so long just to learn basic stuff like the difference between node.js and javascript. I've been essentially copy-pasting code from other tutorials and learned nothing because I didn't understand the syntax. Your decision to create a tutorial starting from the basics has helped me learn so much in such a short amount of time. I'm actually learning now rather than regurgitating code. Props to you. You're doing great work here.

You are a very good teacher, thank you very much for the tutorials :)

We use FunctionName when passing it as an argument and use FunctionName() when we are calling. The brackets should not be ignored.

Wonderful Playlist <3

I like these short five, six minute tutorials. Easy to understand and watch when you dont have much time.

[Darkart]

I feel your love for as, thanks for that. This really helps me.

the greatest beginner-friendy explanation of "fns as callbacks"!
I wish someone explained it to me this way, when I was a junior :)

[ErenGuldas]

No need any other paid education or tutorial. This channel is amazing enough.

Dude, thank you very much! I have been looking for tutorials at my paste for ages! You explain very well! :)

new to atom and just realized that it want a console.log() for auto-completion just write log instead of console first and it'll autocomplete it.

This is awesome, What I am struggling to understand is the overall anatomy of a web development, thank you for explaining how Node fits in the picture, but my head is hurting trying to put all the other pieces in place, like angular, grunt, services, servers... ahhhh! maybe I will feel better once I finish this tutorial but would love a helicopter view of javascript web development... Thank you again for being so splendid!

Wow.. i mixed it, the code in last lesson #4 with this1 and i have made a timer from 10 to 1 and then inscription "Bomb has beed defused". It worked perfectly as i planned :D It aint much, but im so proud of myself ;DD Its my first day of codding i hope i will make it my job in the future, i already love it ;3

[JimmyZ]

thank you, this is really nice and clear tutorial so that beginners like me can follow.

[michelepaglialonga]

thx very much... concise, clear and exhaustive

[kushagrasharma]

I called both function statement[ sayHi() ] and function expression[ sayBye() ] from the function "callFunction()" and both worked, so why do we even need function expression?

[StephanG]

I can't help but think that passing anonymous functions is a great way to make code VERY hard to debug. Especially if variables containing functions come from mysterious places.

[TheMdtariq]

can you please re explain that last one ? calling a function from other function thing ? or any place where its explained more detailed if you have no time for that ? please ?
