By Nolan Brackenridge and Talon Fitzgerald

Create High-Performance, Real-Time Web Apps with Node.js

Looking to build real-time applications that can scale seamlessly? Building Real-Time Applications with Node.js is your go-to guide for creating fast, scalable web apps that update in real-time, all with the power of Node.js.

Whether you're a developer seeking to understand Node.js in-depth or looking to enhance your real-time app development skills, this book takes you through the entire process, from basic concepts to advanced techniques. With step-by-step instructions and practical projects, you'll master real-time web technologies like WebSockets, Socket.io, and REST APIs to handle thousands of simultaneous users with ease.

What You'll Learn Inside:

Building Real-Time Applications: Understand the core concepts behind real-time apps and how to use Node.js to create them.

Using WebSockets and Socket.io: Set up WebSockets to allow real-time, bidirectional communication between the client and server.

Creating Scalable Architectures: Design applications that can scale effectively to support a large number of concurrent users.

Developing APIs with Node.js: Learn how to create robust REST APIs to handle requests efficiently.

Deploying Real-Time Applications: Understand how to deploy your real-time apps to the cloud with platforms like Heroku and AWS.

Handling Data in Real-Time: Use Redis, MongoDB, and other technologies to manage and store real-time data efficiently.

Why This Book Stands Out:

Step-by-Step Projects: Learn by building practical applications like a real-time chat app, collaborative drawing app, and live sports score tracker.

Beginner to Advanced: Whether you're just starting with Node.js or have some experience, this book covers both basic concepts and advanced real-time features.

Focus on Scalability: Learn how to optimize your applications to scale effectively and handle thousands of simultaneous users.

Comprehensive and Practical: Clear explanations and hands-on coding examples guide you through creating real-world applications from scratch.
