Course Review: Node.js Essential Training (LinkedIn Learning)

As I now have access to LinkedIn Learning full catalog, I'm going to use it alongside other resources so expect more course reviews in the upcoming months.

Review

Node.js Essential Training takes around 2 hours to complete, and includes the basics of Node, I/O (interacting with the terminal and with the filesystem), eventEmitter, exports and modules, and executing & spawning child processes.

The code examples are simple but very effective. Oh, and the examples are built first using callbacks, but in the sixth chapter are also shown with streams. Sadly there is no promises version, but still not bad for such a compact course.

Recommended, and I'm going to actually take other courses from the author, Alex Banks, as I like how he explains each topic.
