NodeBook
Master backend engineering through Node.js
The first two volumes of NodeBook are complete and free to read online. Volume 1, The Node.js Runtime, goes deep on the architecture, event loop, buffers, and streams that everything else sits on. Volume 2, Networking & Protocols, covers TCP, HTTP, sockets, DNS, and TLS down to the internals, not just the API surface. Every chapter pairs with runnable Node Runtime Labs, plus EPUB, PDFs, slides, and cheatsheets. Two volumes down, five on the way.
Hey Product Hunt, I'm Ishtmeet, the person building NodeBook.
Most Node.js (and backend) material I came across jumped straight into framework tutorials, and never explained how the underlying engine/library actually worked. So I started writing the book I wish I'd had as a mid-level engineer - one that goes all the way down to the internals.
Today I'm launching the first tww volumes of the book, completely free to read online.
- Volume 1 contains The Node.js Runtime: architecture, the event loop, buffers, and streams. The foundation everything else stands on.
- Volume 2 contains Networking & Protocols: TCP, HTTP, sockets, DNS, and TLS, explained down to what actually happens on the wire.
The full book is free to read online. Optional EPUB, PDFs, slides, and cheatsheets if you want offline study. You can get all of those at https://thenodebook.com/get. Use the promo-code **PHLAUNCH15** during any purchase to avail a 15% discount on any listing.
Five more volumes are on the way - concurrency, data, security, production, and system design.
Thanks for reading.
