% Felix's Node.js Guide

## About this guide

Hi, I am [Felix Geisendörfer][felixge], an early [node.js][nodejs] core

contributor and co-founder of [transloadit.com][transloadit].

Over the past few months I have given a lot of [talks][talks] and done a lot of

[consulting][consulting] on using node.js.

Since I found myself repeating a lot of things over and over, I decided to use

some of my recent vacation to start this opinionated and unofficial guide to

help people getting started in node.js.

## Content

[Node.js Beginner Guide](beginner.html)

~ If you are new to node.js, this guide will take you from hello world to

deploying your first app.

[Node.js Style Guide](style.html)

~ The general JavaScript style I recommend to use with node.js. A lot of

this is personal preferences, but hopefully rather consistent.

[Node.js Convincing The Boss Guide](convincing_the_boss.html)

~ Find out where node.js makes sense, and how to get management to see the

benefits.

More guides are in the works. Feel free to follow the [GitHub repository][repo],

or have a look at this list of upcoming guides:

*Node.js Package Guide*

~ Learn how to create your own node.js packages and publish them on npm.

*Node.js Object Oriented Programming Guide*

~ My approach to object oriented programming with node.js.

*Node.js Test Driven Development Guide*
