Welcome to my node.js tutorial. In this series, I will go over the fundamentals of node.js and guide you through three projects - a number guessing game, a simple calculator app, and a 2048 game. In this lesson, I will just be going over what programming is in the first place and why you might want to learn it, what JavaScript is and why or why not to learn it, then an installation guide for node.js, and finally showing you a hello world program just as an example.
