Notes
- Most of my interactions with NodeJS have been indirect as the JavaScript I write is intended for execution in a browser.
- NodeJS, however, does support JavaScript development, as it along with NPM and Webpack act as a web server and are set up to automatically rebuild the target JavasScript files (bundle.js and vendor.js) when any of the classes in the code base are updated.
- As a result, NodeJS is somewhat invisible but it has worked very reliably.
- I may consider using JavaScript in Lambda functions which could mean more hands-on experience with NodeJS in the future.
