I love javascript and as a student and self-taught developer, it would be a great opportunity to learn from this course. I have learned electron js and I think I could make something great with this CLI knowledge.

This Node CLI course would be a great help for me to improve my skills, building cli tools to automate part of my work routine!

I've always wanted to do automation tasks without learning a new language like Python. I would really love to do it with the language I know and love (JavaScript) and this course can help me achieve that 🙏

Hey James, do you have any videos on how to edit existing react sites? I'm a new dev and the previous dev made the apps in vscode. I can't get the app to compile or debug, keeps missing things even though I've run npm install to get the dependencies.

Since my favorite language is JavaScript and Node is the framework that I’m working on. So Node CLI, for sure, is get me interested. Nonetheless, I hope that I get the best tools from you, James:).

@leewenger4401 Жыл бұрын
This is great stuff. One thing that was really confusing to me was about how the index.js magically became executable just by adding a permission until I watched some other videos that explained the shebang functionality that actually tells the terminal how to run this file in node... you might have explained that here but I missed that piece of information. The content was really helpful overall - thanks!

The fact that most of the packages don't have types is a huge dealbreaker for me. When I'm working on an application, even something this small, I need to know the shape of my data so that I know how I can manipulate it. Getting red squiggles in VSCode is the opposite of a good workflow.

Our company has its own framework for server side rendering react apps. We really are in need of a custom cli for our framework. Since we are at iran, because of sanctions we have trouble purchasing any course. So i think we'd really appreciate one copy. Either way tnx for your tutorials

Yeah, there's probably not much need to be learning BASH if you don't have a handle on it already, unless you want to do stuff "server side", but man, this is lot of tooling and support libraries for something built in to *NIX. Had to laugh at ch(ange)mod(e) and permissions, though... in the amount of time you took to explain that you weren't going to explain it, you literally could have explained it.

Hey James! Great video! Thanks for all your content. I wanted to let you know I finished my CLI. I hope you all check it out. It’s a tool to add Auth0 the a Sveltekit project and it seems to be working wonderfully. Takes about 5-10 minutes to be up and running with Authentication in a sveltekit project. npx create-sveltekit-auth0 Would love to know what you think and hope it’s a tool many can use. Thanks again James for your inspiration! Peace to you man.
