Express.js is the engine underpinning many node.js http server applications - that is true. It’s pretty solid and other frameworks like sails make use of it. In fact the latter is very good for restful web services out of the box and uses an ORM for database access. React is probably not going to be useful to you for web services really - that will come in to play for your UI work.

We had other development teams learn Angular for a mobile app. But they are not using Node.
We have been using .NET to develop web pages instead of green screens. However, Node has caught the attention of some developers. I’m diving in to figure out how to develop browser based interfaces and RESTful web services using Node. It seems like Express and React keep coming up. I know Node and its modules are supposed to be cross-platform. But I didn’t know if there was anything unique due to the platform being PASE instead of Linux. (.NET Core runs on Linux but not in PASE, so the port to PASE can sometimes matter.)

Subject: [EXTERNAL] Re: [WEB400] Express, React, Node.JS
There is not going to be anything specific to the IBMi out there for things like Express and React. There wouldn’t be for any specific platform. The whole idea is that these things are platform agnostic and so just learning them is good enough for any platform. Only when you start accessing data does platform come in to play - and neither of those libraries help you there. I thought you were learning Angular anyway?

I am currently learning JavaScript. My aim is to learn how to develop web apps and RESTful web services using Node on the IBM i. From what I have been reading, it sounds like Express module and the React library will be useful for me to learn.
It's easy to find documentation, tutorials and other learning materials for Express and React in general. What documentation, tutorials or learning materials do people recommend for Express and React specifically on the IBM i?
