Biografía del autor

David Mark Clements is a JavaScript and Node specialist residing in Northern Ireland. From a very early age he was fascinated with programming and computers. He first learned BASIC on one of the many Atari's he had accumulated by the age of 9. David learned JavaScript at age 12, moving into Linux administration and PHP as a teenager. Now (as a twenty something), he assists multinationals and startups alike with JavaScript solutions and training. Node has become a prominent member of his toolkit due to its versatility, vast ecosystem, and the cognitive ease that comes with fullstack JavaScript. When he's not tinkering with computers, he's spending time with the love of his life, Maxine, and her HuskySpitz cross, Jessi.
