Yo ninjas, in this long overdue Node JS tutorial, I'll show you how we can handle POST requests in Node and parse the data we're sent using body-parser, a module available on the npm.

I forgot to say that I LOVE YOUR EXPLAINING OF EVERY DETAIL. I noticed a few comments saying you don't need to, but in reality it HELPS A LOT.

Fantastic! Your teaching methods are superb. You actually take the time to explain the data flow - and that makes all the difference. Thank you!

It's funny, I've watched so many tutorials that seem to aim to teach you node.js, but they just breeze over the details of what each thing does or how it works. Now I watch one Net Ninja tutorial, and all of those things that all of the other tutorials talked about make sense. I just needed one tutorial like this, rather than dozens of ones that don't explain it properly. Anyone who wants to learn anything related to code, I will point them in your direction.

Cant ask for more thank you for this wonderful nodejs begining, never felt confused or iritated, all tutorials went soo smoothly

[stevecarey]

body-parser is now a dependency of express so when you install express, body-parser is installed automatically.

I like all videos before watching. The quality of the instructions is amazing

[ninjajs]

Thanks Net Ninja!! Now i understand what body parser does because you explain everything in detail.

[vaibhavsharma]

We can now use:
var exp = require('express');
var app = exp();
true}));

body-parser is now included in express module itself.
