I want to say that you have the best content on youtube. there are thousands of tutorials and docs and you are the only one who makes these frameworks, libraries, tutorials simple and easy to get to work. Huge respects your way. Thank you for the brilliant level of content. Your tutorials have helped me in 2 dev roles.

Nice, clear video. I like how you work in real-time complete with mistakes. It's a great way to learn a bit about debugging along the way.

"I don't need EJSLint, I *am* EJSLint." Like a boss.

Outstanding tutorial. You explained complex concepts with such ease, and the simple notes application made it all very clear. Thank you so much!

Once again a great instructional video Sam! I'm looking forward to merging this functionality with your NodeJS and mySQL database video. Would love to see this mySQL & NodeJS + this EpressJS crash course then combined with a ReactJS frontend. Eventually I would love to see vidoes on how to move it all to GCP (perhaps Cloud Run with a mySQL instance). Again thanks!
It seems like you are in BC Canada? I'm from Victoria/born in Vancouver and actually volunteering on an app to help the BC Thanksgiving Food Drive on September 24th, 2022.

I would like to see this notes app redone with the newest framework Remix, and maybe introduce a database next time :p. Obviously a React tutorial would be nice too
