What is JavaScript ?
JavaScript is a scripting language that enables you to create dynamically updating content, control multimedia, animate images, and pretty much everything else. .
What is Node.js?
Node.js is an open-source, cross-platform, JavaScript runtime environment (Framework) that executes JavaScript code outside a web browser. Node.js lets developers use JavaScript to write command line tools and for server-side scripting—running scripts server-side to produce dynamic web page content before the page is sent to the user's web browser. Consequently, Node.js represents a "JavaScript everywhere" paradigm unifying web-application development around a single programming language, rather than different languages for server- and client-side scripts.

The course was well structured and content was impressive. Found a bit slow at some parts and sometimes the typos was a bit annoying ;)

Instructor struggled with English at times and was difficult to understand on occasion. He let out a loud belch at one point which was disgusting and unprofessional and wasted a great deal of time correcting his own poor typing. In addition, the course does NOT teach Node JS. It literally had about a 7 minute overview on Node JS with little to no explanation of how or why to use it it a practical way. Same with the Promise content. I understand how Promises work, but he did not give a practical use for them. Overall, a decent introduction to Javascript, but misleading in that it is labeled as a Node JS class.
