Independently Published Building Node.js REST API with TDD Approach: 10 Steps Complete Guide for Node.js, Express.js &

Decent book but did seem to require more knowledge on certain areas than expected. Found some good courses on Udemy in the end that really helped alongside the book.

It's rare to find style of diction in tech books that gives exactly what you need for quick motion, while ALSO imparting an understanding of the topic ... I was really impressed by the balance he struck, I hope Parri Pandian writes more!

This book is very poorly and hastily written. Some terrible english, some terrible typos all over the place. The actual content of the book is mostly just copy/pasted, rinse/repeat. I mean I get that's TTD but it could have been written in a different way to avoid such a slew of exactly the same steps with some details modified. If they did that though the size of the book would be quartered. In addition all the additional 2-3 pages extra for each chapter which has no content. Page with chapter title, page with "hey you can get this on github", page for almost nothing. Not to mention the gigantic font used all over. This book is all filler, don't waste your time. Even one of the parts I was intersted in, it literally says "hey I haven't been able to figure out how to do this, please if you are reading this book send me an email at [email protected] so I can know and update the book". I got got, this book was a trick and I'm the fool.
