Ask HN: What are the best resources for learning Node.js and MongoDB?

1 pointnsnick3 comments

In the past I have liked the Big Nerd Ranch guides for ios and android development. Are there any tutorial based guides out there that explain the underlying concepts really well? I have "Node.js, MongoDB, and AngularJS Web Development" by Brad Dayley, and it is a great reference book, but it is not a very good teaching book.

This is a fantastic book

I have that book and it is a fantastic reference, but it is not great at instructing. There are no comprehensive examples so it is hard to see how all the parts fit together as in best practices.

Free class offered by MongoDB using Node.js: https://university.mongodb.com/courses/M101JS/about
