Learn Express.js In 48 Minutes: Web Server Tutorial

[@zenny1359]

My fucking god. I've bought and gone through 2-3 different courses learning about backend and yours is the only one that helped me understand the concepts properly. The way you take time to explain each and every detail of your code helps a bunch. I am looking forward to watching the rest of your course. Thanks for this bootcamp, I really appreciate it.

[@sideshowlol]

That was a fantastic introduction to Express, Brad! Thanks so much. You went at just the right pace and made it super easy to follow. Already looking forward to your next “Create an API “ lesson. 🤓 Have you thought about presenting the words “Learn Web Code” on your three monitors behind you during your on-camera sections? Might be an opportunity for a little extra brand awareness. 😎

Thanks! And that's a good idea!!

Brad is the best! Very generous to offer this course for free

[@boredomindex3353]

Actually, he is very good at explaining. Some people just have it. I don't know if it is learnt or acquired through experience. Keep up the good work!

[@candi2Love]

Thank you for this video sir!. good detail and appreciate the increased font size and zoomimg for enhanced learning experience💯 I learned much clearer from you the syntax but i'm very new to http👶 so i still need a bit more break down. Have you already done a video on what the req and res objects look like? Why does http method take those 2 params? what are headers and why should we care? If so, what is the name? If not, would you do one if not too tedious?😊

[@LearnWebCode]

Hi, thanks! In the next video when we talk about CORS I'll try to talk more about req/res and headers in general.

[@leythecg]

Really a great tutorial! Many thanks!

[@abdullahidanmusa9457]

Brad, I think the word thank you isn't enough to express our gratitude for the selfless work you are doing. But anyway, thank you so much. I just want to let you know that I really like your course, learn javascript: full stack from scratch, on udemy. Do you have some more courses that I should check?

[@LearnWebCode]

Thanks so much! It's huge motivation for me to hear that. Glad you're enjoying the Full-Stack JavaScript course! You might like the "React For The Rest Of Us" course or the "Git a Web Developer Job" course if you want to learn about version control / workflow / mobile-first design etc...

[@technerd5203]

Thank you man!

35:52 Instead of home.ejs, rain statement from if-else middleware is getting displayed

[@jenniferward6821]

Thank you for this

[@clouddrive6833]

It was so nice...thanks for it

[@tushars4038]

18:52 That middleware express.urlencoded() is causing problem. Before adding trim() & toUpperCase(), it was only showing else condition "Incorrect, please try again." even when u enter "blue". After adding trim() and toUpperCase(), I get an error: TypeError: Cannot read properties of undefined (reading 'trim')

[@techtalk6365]

you always amazing .

[@tomod_1022]

Thanks bro!

[@mehrosenasir9974]

Thanks Brad for this tutorial though I'm stuck on my post request. When I try to post the data of my html form to the /result route it shows me a request fo Get instead of a Post request. I could see the request type through the developers tool also I changed the port number but that also didn't work.

[@averagehooligan620]

How do I fix this problem: when I type in "localhost: 3000" in my browser, I get an ERR_CONNECTION_REFUSED message. In Chrome's Properties menu, I explicitly allowed port 3000, but it still will not work.

[@pixelrangerstudio86]

I am here from your UDEMY wordpress course, love it! Please tell me what keyboard have you used during the course i am obsessed by its sound :d

[@LearnWebCode]

Thanks! Glad you're enjoying the WP course. I'm using an old mechanical keyboard from a company called Leopold and it uses Cherry MX Brown switches 🤓🥳

[@tushars4038]

How can we access property color when it doesn't exist ?

[@jdbAAV1]

if `req.body.color` is not working, try `const obj = JSON.parse(JSON.stringify(req.body)); obj.color`

[@tingting6612]

Thank you , this helped alot :)

[@ДмитрийМузыченко-д5ш]

hI, Brad! Thanks for your tutorials! If I want to deploy my web-site made with Node and EJS engine, can I deploy at Github pages or Netlify? As far as i understand, Github pages look for index.html page and not index.ejs. How to deal with it?

[@techmathy5764]

Thank you.Why everytime package lock json file gets added up

[@LearnWebCode]

It's just a stricter / more detailed version of package.json. It keeps track of the exact versions of your packages as well as the dependencies of your dependencies.

[@whoman7930]

Why you use MongoDB as a database and not firebase?

[@LearnWebCode]

Firebase is great, but it would feel weird for me to directly advertise a technology that is merely a Google product. With MongoDB, if you don't want to use MongoDB's official Atlas service, you can host your own Mongo database on your own VPS / server / hardware at not extra cost. Using Mongo in my videos seems less opinionated than Firebase, but that's just my own thought process.

[@streamx2]

I think i might have missed something and need to watch again. You use app.use in this video with extended but you not in the next video where you only use app.use. why is this? Is it because in the next video you are working with json?

[@LearnWebCode]

You only need to use the "urlencoded" middleware if you're trying to work with incoming data submitted from a traditional HTML Form submit.

[@ckh8217]

It should be fine with app.use(express.json()); ? Think I never use urlencoded anymore.

[@SeanKudrna]

This is an awesome tutorial! You’re a great teacher. Thank you :)

[@adelinrapcore]

You really understand how "stupid" we are, and explain it consequently :) thx

[@sourena_pa]

Thank you Brad, was cool and clear. I like the way you teach. i'm not fluent in English but I almost undrstood all. (except ejs, because first time I've heard about, intresting template ; ) I should find your vidéos in first place, waste too much time on others, nothing but confusig. Please keep going in the same way. Thank you again. 🤟

[@engespress]

Your tutorials are the best. You speak in language that non-techies or newbies can understand. You use good examples that laypersons can relate to. You explain each component of the code thoroughly step by step, making it easy enough to understand, instead of glossing over things, assuming that everyone knows what they are for. Too many of the presenters of these types of tutorials don't understand what goes on in the mind of beginners, and their tutorials make some people like me feel confused and bewildered. They use technical terms that only fellow engineers can keep up with. However, I don't want to criticize them too much because the content on YT is free. But I would just like to say your communication skills and method of presentation are excellent. Thank you.

[@alanmunoz4424]

You're awesome, a lot of stuff, a lot of clarity. Thanks Brad!!

[@Ubaid-24]

Good day sir! I always feel motivated whenever I watch a video from your channel. But today I get confused and want to as this question. From your explanation on why we need a server? And the demonstrated example from the developer tool got me confused! If a client or a user make changes in developer tools, is it saved permanently? That is reflect the changes to the original file?

[@jorgecontreras8239]

It was very confusing express.js for me, until I watched your video 10/10

Hi Brad! Thanks for a great tutorial! I be honest im paying for a course and thewy couldnt explain it like you have!! I be sure to check out your paid course too now! I only had one problem and that was using ejs engine... I can see that ejs was installed and in the dependecies of the package.json file but this error occurs ---- Error: No default engine was specified and no extension was provided. i know it is something to do with the syntax .render but thats all i can work out!!
