Boss I have a question for you concerning node js

send me a mail then

LSarcastic:
Javascript and it's reputation for a new tool everyday.
I pity JS guys sha. There's always a new framework each week, a new feature each month and a new addition each year. The progress is too fast which is a good and a bad thing at the same time

my Brother God has always been the plug sha .. we're good!!!

crownedrookie:
Big bosses. I just got contacted for a project that for now I got very little idea of how to start it. According to client its to be a web app. Any ideas that might be useful? Relevant information in screenshot below. CC pajosh pcguru1

DM

Ajibel:
I did, and I think the thought of predicting NodeJs would die because of an alternative developed by the same guy behind Nodejs is sickening... that's why I said they need to sort out their issues in that ecosystem.

Yes bro because you cannot serve two masters at the same time ... you must favour one over the other

Ajibel:
NodeJS dead?
This javascript ecosystem should just go sort itself out

I thinkbYou need to peruse the post

barrypro:
Who said programming, Its a scripting language bro

But It Is not a replacement for node anyways just as they rightly pointed out .. Node runtime will stand the test of time

barrypro:
Who said programming, Its a scripting language bro

Exactly boss .. You're d Man

barrypro:
New languages keep coming up everyday. Deno seems interesting

This should be a DM because programmers don't victimize but I think it would enlighten others too ... Sir , Node and Deno are JavaScript runtimes not programming languages OK??

DM me Man.. it will only get better for you sir .. just beleve

Deno is a new runtime for JavaScript and TypeScript, created by Ryan Dahl – the original creator of Node.js. The project is intended to fix design problems in Node.js described in Dahl’s famous talk “10 Things I Regret About Node.js”. We talked to Krzysztof Piechowicz (adesso AG) about the differences between Node.js and Deno. In the iJS video, Piechowicz goes into the topic in more detail and shows what is possible with Deno.
Deno versus Node.js
JAXenter: Hello Krzysztof! You are an expert in Deno – a new JavaScript Framework created by the Node inventor Ryan Dahl. Can you briefly explain what Deno is exactly?
Deno aims to fix Node.js design mistakes and offers a new modern development environment.
Krzysztof Piechowicz: Deno is a new platform for writing applications using JavaScript and TypeScript. Both platforms share the same philosophy – event-driven architecture and asynchronous non-blocking tools to build web servers and services. The author of Deno is Ryan Dahl, original creator of Node.js. In 2018, he gave the famous talk “10 Things I Regret About Node.js“ and announced his new project – Deno. Deno aims to fix Node.js design mistakes and offers a new modern development environment.
JAXenter: How does Deno differ from Node.js?
Krzysztof Piechowicz: Both platforms serve the same purpose, but use different mechanisms. Deno uses ES Modules as the default module system, whereas Node.js uses CommonJS. External dependencies are loaded using URLs, similar to browsers. There is also no package manager and centralized registry, modules can be hosted everywhere on the internet. Contrary to Node.js, Deno executes the code in a sandbox, which means that runtime has no access to the network, the file system and the environment. The access needs to be explicitly granted, which means better security. Deno supports TypeScript out of the box, which means that we don’t need to manually install and configure tools to write TypeScript code. Another difference is that Deno provides a set of built-in tools, like a test runner, a code formatter and a bundler.
Deno – an example
JAXenter: Can you pick out a difference and demonstrate it with an example?
Krzysztof Piechowicz: In my opinion, the most important difference is how modules are imported. As I mentioned, Deno doesn’t use the CommonJS format and doesn’t provide a package manager like npm. All modules are loaded directly in code using an URL.
Here is a Node.js example:
And here is a Deno example:
At first glance, the Node imports look simpler, but there are a few advantages to using the Deno style. By importing code via URL, it’s possible to host modules everywhere on the internet. Deno packages can be distributed without a centralized registry. There is also no need for the package.json file and a dependency list, because all modules are downloaded, compiled and cached on the application run.
JAXenter: What is the current status of Deno? Can it already be used in production?
Krzysztof Piechowicz: Deno is still under heavy development and isn’t production-ready yet. There is also no official date for the release of the 1.0 version.
The future of Deno
JAXenter: What’s the next step with Deno? Is it actively being developed? By whom, in which direction?
The goal of Deno is not to replace Node.js, but to offer an alternative.
Krzysztof Piechowicz: Deno is an open-source project and is being developed very actively. The project was started in 2018 by Ryan Dahl. Currently, the project has over 150 contributors. Besides the release of the 1.0 version, there is a plan to provide a command-line debugger and built-in code linter to improve developer experience. Deno should also serve HTTP more efficiently.
JAXenter: What is the core message of your session at iJS?
Krzysztof Piechowicz: The goal of Deno is not to replace Node.js, but to offer an alternative. Some of the differences are quite controversial and it’s hard to predict if they will format in a correct way. I recommend that all Node.js programmers keep an eye on this project. I’m not sure if this project will be a success, but it’s a great opportunity to observe how Node.js could have been implemented differently.
JAXenter: Thank you very much!
Deno – a better Node.js? What do you think?

Your views in the comments ...

bet9ja:
it's not a Netflix. Where do I get access to the original series

https://www.naijgreen.com/silicon-valley-season-1-6-complete-720p-hdtv-all-episodes/

check d link ... not tested but I think the link is valid

Anonime1105:
Couple of weeks back

Good job bro ... Weldone

Anonime1105:
Am still a beginner.

okk .. when did you start??

Anonime1105:
I just started the series and am loving it

Nice ... Are you a programmer

I wish you success man .. welcome to da hood brother .. Keep up the good work

crownedrookie:
Na when I don complete project u post this one abi.

chai ... sorry ooo

but you can still ask questions nah .. anything that isn't clear to you in node js

Haywhy433:
Thanks to all contributors. I really appreciate you all inputs

How's the best way to start?
Your top tips

start with Web ... but learn d basics very well ... don't depend on frameworks like bootstrap them ... they're good but you have yo use them when you understand what is happening under the hood ... as a programmer you have to be concerned with what is happening under the hood ...

tensazangetsu20:
I already covered the module with my courses but I haven't built any project with it yet so I would say I don't know it. until I can apply it to projects, before I can say yes I have grasped that concept.

Keep climbing mahn ... the sky will be the beginning of your limits

tensazangetsu20:
Oh yeah I do data structures too. I use weekends for that.

Kudos man .. what about OOP??

tensazangetsu20:
Bros I am still learning o. If I had come to nairaland then and saw that comment maybe I would have stopped. I am actually enjoying it. I started with HTML, CSS and I am presently learning JavaScript. I would probably learn JavaScript till August and build a lot of projects alongside. I would pick up react and angular once I am really comfortable with JavaScript before going over to the backend.

I really want to pick up one higher level language between Java and c++ but I don't think it would be possible this year at all.

Bro ... JS Is a blast ... Just gain mastery in it .... you're okk somehow ... Because data structures and algorithms ..and Object Oriented Programming plus other little things can't be left out

Cakephp:
Learn java.

Wooow ... This Advice Would have been better if OP said he wanted to learn Object Oriented Programming Sir

tensazangetsu20:
Bros it's a very stupid statement. See how he just discouraged the man immediately. If you don't have passion, stand down. Black people are so wicked. If it was on Reddit or quora you would see encouragement from everyone. People even giving him steps to take and all. Here the first comment is stand down if you don't have passion. Them that have passion what have they created?

You are Right but it's just that you're saying it in a wrong way ... Not as a programmer at least

What's your stack

tensazangetsu20:
You a grandfather based on what. How many operating systems have you created? How many Robots have you built? How many programming languages have you created? Duning Kruger effect with response to programming. You guys on this section really overestimate yourselves. I can bet you don't even know what you are yapping about.

Op learn whatever you want to learn if you are waiting for a spark to do anything in life forget it. Just take your passion along with you.

No quarrels gentleman ... I hate to see a situation like this .. But bro that was a kinda compound statement ... chai ... programmers have their ethics and discipline is on of them ... We're all one .. learning never ends

just comment your node js problem or send me a mail @ peterjoshua828@gmail.com

No JavaScript

For me my major challenge is power as I moved down to Aba where my family stays .. tired of spending on PMS ... but we'll all pull through ln Jesus Name ... Stay Safe
