I am interested in web development but my knowledge is limited to normal websites. I know that node.js is combined with HTML 5 CSS and JavaScript to build mobile web applications, but this is too general and I would like to see your explanations and simple examples to illustrate it.

Thank you!

Regarding this question, to quote yourself, "this is too general". You need to post a specific problem –  Bojangles 53 mins ago

  • False, node.js is "just" javascript.

To begin you can use a node.js framework like express. You can start with getting-started-with-express and this one for a more complete 'how to'.

The nodejs API documentation is also very useful and available here: http://nodejs.org/api/

And a very nice resource on stack: How do I get started with Node.js

I got started with NodeJS in Action. It's not free, but super helpful, with detailed explanation, suitable for beginners. Some parts with express are slightly outdated, but it's almost impossible to find an up-to-date book on NodeJS, since it's changing too fast.
