Review: This book is packed full of examples that are really helpful in understanding what is going on. - I liked the way I could follow along in the development cycle to get where the author wanted the reader to go. I read word for word the first 12 or so chapters building the whole project in some cases from scratch and in some just copying the GitHub copies so I did not have to type everything. But I ended up with a project I modeled my live project from. Somewhere after the 12th Chapter I was just reading for understanding since the database used was not my preference. I found a lot of the information parted in the later chapters to be helpful references for things I was doing live and did do a few months later. When I ran into understanding issues on the use of the promises and how they really work I found the additional insights that I was able to get from Ethan helped me to understand more fully how the whole synchronous verses async processes really worked in software. I was aware of this on the hardware level but not on the software, As an electrical engineer I have always known how async processes do not easily mix with synchronous. I have to admit that the added help I got from the Author via email enlightened me in this area. So if anything I would say that it should be a little additional chapter to the book in the next edition if there is one. But not necessary as the book as it is is a very good instructional text for hands on folks.like me. The only thing needing some more refinement, I think, was the hand-off to Single page and React. I enjoyed this part of the book but I could not bring my project along to do the same thing the author had done with his. I think it was because at that point I was pretty much committed to all of the items that I was using in Express and did not want to let them go in the name of progress. I have since been delving into React and Restful just to understand what all of the hyp is about. The bottom line is that the experience I got from the author's book propelled me thoroughly into the wonders of the node.js world.
Review: Everything is explained in plain English - This is one of the best technical books I have ever read. The author explains everything in plain English and does a great job of explaining why he chooses a specific option when faced with multiple choices (for example, his choice of handlebars for templating). If you are already familiar with JavaScript and want to learn how to build Web Apps with Express, this is an excellent starting point.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Everything is explained in plain English
*by D***A on July 26, 2022*

This is one of the best technical books I have ever read. The author explains everything in plain English and does a great job of explaining why he chooses a specific option when faced with multiple choices (for example, his choice of handlebars for templating). If you are already familiar with JavaScript and want to learn how to build Web Apps with Express, this is an excellent starting point.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Smooth explanation covering many important web development topics.
*by A***R on April 1, 2025*

This book gives a high level overview of full stack web development. But it also contains some helpful guidance on many software engineering topics, like debugging and deployment. Smooth, easy to folow explanation. Wish it had more indepth coverage of API development with Express. But I highly recommend it.
