Combined with the study of Node.js, the book covers the MySQL database, the world's most famous data persistence technology, ideal for projects of all sizes and which uses the ubiquitous SQL query language. The job market and demand for web projects using Node.js and MySQL is growing larger both nationally and around the world, making it a very valuable asset on your resume.
