I think you are a front-end developer, Mario! I've never written a line of front-end js, I learned node directly. Well, first I spent about a day reviewing js syntax/semantics, ignoring all the browser horribleness, and then started coding in node. > On Monday, February 16, 2015 at 6:12:29 PM UTC-8, Kevin Bueno wrote: >> Ive done a lot of research, and I want to know what you y'all think?

If your goal is to learn node, don't waste time in the browser, its a very different environment, with a different set of tools. The only commonality is js syntax, and that's the easiest part. Just don't pick it up by "example", js is a simple language, but you actually have to understand its variable scope and type models. Don't skip the language basics. -- Job board: http://jobs.nodejs.org/ New group rules: https://gist.github.com/othiym23/9886289#file-moderation-policy-md Old group rules: https://github.com/joyent/node/wiki/Mailing-List-Posting-Guidelines --- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "nodejs" group.
