Biography/History:

Johanan Joshua: Joshua Johanan is the author of two books, Building Scalable Apps with Redis and Node. js and Web Developers Reference Guide. Both books deal with some of the details that will be used in this course. He is currently a web developer with over 7 years of experience writing sites and applications in many different languages. These languages include PHP, Python, JavaScript, and C#. Using many languages also means using many frameworks, including Zend Framework, Django, and. Net MVC. You can read his blog at http: //ejosh. co/de/ where he posts semi-regularly.

Summary:

If the phrase scalability sounds alien to you, then this is an ideal book for you. You will not need much Node.js experience as each framework is demonstrated in a way that requires no previous knowledge of the framework. You will be building scalable Node.js applications in no time! Knowledge of JavaScript is required.
