Best tutorials ever, better than some charged ones on the internet. Really are for beginners, even someone like me who have no knowledge in coding can understand.

Great videos :) can you make a video about hosting a nodejs website on web please ?

all of NetNinja's tutorials are amazing, but is no one going to tell him that 'dawgs' is just pronounced 'dogs'? 😂

its cool when u say uninstall no ohhh express

[conaxliu]

In think something has changed between 2016 and now. I ran 'npm install express' without problem, it installed all dependencies, altogether about 50 packages. But when executing 'npm uninstall express', it only removed the express folder, and gave an error message that it could not find package.json.

[lunar-ixvu]

can you run css and javascript files in this way? supposing your loaded html requires a css and js file - how would these load?

[theashishahuja]

iam unable to install express..iam getting a error
registry returned 404 error..how can i resolve it? @The Net Ninja can u help to sort it?

[jveerman]

When I do 'npm uninstall express' it only uninstalls express and not the dependencies as you mentioned. Is there a different command that would uninstall the dependencies as well?

[McDiffi]

Hey, i have a problem, for me it's create also Package-lock.json file and when i do command for uninstalling package it's uninstall only 2 packages, but previoulsy installed 42 packages. Soo I don't have only .bin folder like in this video after uninstalling express. Please, can anyone explain me that?

Ok, after a few trys, I've founded out why this happen to me.
SOLUTION:
First: package-lock.jaon is a file which is created automaticaly in newer version od node.js
Second: If u have the same problem try to first "npm init", which is explained in next one video, and then try to install and uninstall express. For me it's installed 42 packages and uninstall 43, soo only .bin folder left in node_modules.

not able to get the functionality of res.exit() . It sometimes returns a text, sometimes its returning a json object. But if we use it while piping something to client, there is just a white screen . Why?

[conaxliu]

How would I properly do a search in npmjs site? If not for this video, I wouldn't know I should search 'express' for something that does routing!
