Practical Node.js is your step-by-step guide to learning how to build a wide range of scalable real-world web applications using a professional development toolkit. Node.js is an innovative and highly efficient platform for creating web services. But Node.js doesn't live in a vacuum! In a modern web development, many different components need to be put together — routing, database driver, ORM, session management, OAuth, HTML template engine, CSS compiler and many more.
If you already know the basics of Node.js, now is the time to discover how to bring it to production level by leveraging its vast ecosystem of packages. As a web developer, you'll work with a varied collection of standards and frameworks - Practical Node.js shows you how all those pieces fit together.
Practical Node.js takes you from installing all the necessary modules to writing full-stack web applications by harnessing the power of the Express.js and Hapi frameworks, the MongoDB database with Mongoskin and Mongoose, Jade and Handlebars template engines, Stylus and LESS CSS languages, OAuth and Everyauth libraries, and the Socket.IO and Derby libraries, and everything in between. The book also covers how to deploy to Heroku and AWS, daemonize apps, and write REST APIs. You'll build full-stack real-world Node.js apps from scratch, and also discover how to write your own Node.js modules and publish them on NPM. You already know what Node.js is; now learn what you can do with it and how far you can take it!

I'm a control theory engineer with 20 years of professional experience in enterprise level software development. It is entirely my fault that I bought the book strictly based on its 5.0 average out of 12 reviews. Must be authors friends. And now...
Author says: 'Figure 4-4 shows how the home page looks after adding style sheets'...Yes, maybe, but not until after adding menu.jade in includes, and after doing lots of additional changes in controller/model i.e. app.js (which is not done until two chapters later), and after you start 'mongod' process, and after you add some articles and... and counting.
The matter of the fact is that you cannot see the results of your .jade views without the model which in turn draws information from the persistence layer - but author doesn't find it worth mentioning. He simply states: 'Figure 4-4 shows how the home page looks after adding style sheets.' Isn't that just great? Regarding this, the approach to form the views first and then everything else is a bit strange - at least for a book. I've never seen it in my professional career.
This lone example illustrates the whole 'organization' of the book. Chaotic, unstructured with tons of pages wasted on listings of the code from the source file which is available anyway. Sometimes twice - as a listing and then 'full listing'. To make things worse, such listings are not accompanied by explanations, nuances, advices, best practices... he never draws readers attention to important details or pitfalls. Most of the time the author just says: 'The full code of xxxxx.xxx file is as follows', or for the variation's sake: 'Now we can look at the home page template index.jade that extends layout' which is nothing more but stating the obvious.
