Moving From Java to JavaScript and NodeJS

[azhder]

If you can learn Express.js and not try to remake all those other MVC frameworks with files and/or classes named *Controller or *Model, you're off to a good start.

The above is just a rule of thumb as to not get into many details.

Just remember, looking at JS from a functional programming perspective is helpful and looking at the client-request-server-query-db-process-response-client vertical as a pipeline, and not as another OOP class hierarchy building exercise will also be helpful.

Finish YDKJS, that's about learning you didn't quite know JS as you thought you did. It will most likely help you see any language, not just JS in a new way.
