This book introduces you to Node, the new web development framework written in JavaScript. You'll learn hands-on how Node makes life easier for experienced JavaScript developers: not only can you work on the front end and back end in the same language, you'll also have more flexibility in choosing how to divide application logic between client and server.
Written by a core contributor to the framework, Node: Up and Running shows you how Node scales up to support large numbers of simultaneous connections across multiple servers, and scales down to let you create quick one-off applications with minimal infrastructure. Built on the V8 JavaScript engine that runs Google Chrome, Node is already winning the hearts and minds of many companies, including Google and Yahoo! This book shows you why.
* Understand Node's event-loop architecture, non-blocking I/O, and event-driven programming
* Discover how Node supports a variety of database and data storage tools
* Learn best practices for writing easy-to-maintain code for Node
* Get concrete examples of how to use the various Node APIs in practice
* Take advantage of the book’s complete API reference

Up and Running With Node.js is a guide to Node.js aimed at giving you the combination of the background knowledge you need to use Node well, and the hands-on tutorials you need to get started fast.
While this initial release isn't a huge one, as we progress through the process of writing we are going to be periodically sharing drafts of the book with the community. We'd love to get your thoughts and feedback on what we are doing. I've based much of what I've written on the many Node talks I've given at conferences world-wide. I hope we can write the book that you need to make the most of the amazing platform Node.js offers, so all feedback is helpful.
