Level 1: Fundamentals (High Freedom)

1. Node.js 22 Runtime

Node.js 22 brings ES2025 features and improvements:

Basic HTTP Server:

const http = require('http');

const server = http.createServer((req, res) => {
    if (req.url === '/hello') {
        res.writeHead(200, { 'Content-Type': 'application/json' });
        res.end(JSON.stringify({ message: 'Hello, World!' }));
    } else {
        res.writeHead(404);
        res.end('Not Found');
    }
});

server.listen(3000, () => {
    console.log('Server running on :3000');
});

ES Modules:

// math.mjs
export function add(a, b) {
    return a + b;
}

export function multiply(a, b) {
    return a * b;
}

// app.mjs
import { add, multiply } from './math.mjs';

console.log(add(2, 3)); // 5
console.log(multiply(2, 3)); // 6

Async/Await Patterns:

async function fetchUserData(userId) {
    try {
        const response = await fetch(\`https://api.example.com/users/\${userId}\`);
        
        if (!response.ok) {
            throw new Error(\`API error: \${response.statusText}\`);
        }
        
        const data = await response.json();
        return data;
    } catch (error) {
        console.error('Fetch failed:', error);
        throw error;
    }
}

async function main() {
    const user = await fetchUserData(1);
    console.log(user);
}

main();

2. npm Ecosystem Management

npm 11 provides modern package management:

Package.json Best Practices:

{
    "name": "@org/myapp",
    "version": "1.0.0",
    "description": "Application description",
    "type": "module",
    "main": "dist/index.js",
    "exports": {
        ".": "./dist/index.js",
        "./utils": "./dist/utils.js"
    },
    "engines": {
        "node": ">=22.0.0",
        "npm": ">=11.0.0"
    },
    "scripts": {
        "dev": "node --watch src/index.js",
        "build": "tsc",
        "test": "vitest",
        "lint": "eslint ."
    },
    "dependencies": {
        "express": "^4.21.0",
        "dotenv": "^16.0.0"
    },
    "devDependencies": {
        "@types/node": "^22.0.0",
        "vitest": "^2.0.0"
    }
}

npm Scripts:

# Development
npm run dev

# Build
npm run build

# Test
npm test

# Publish
npm publish

# Audit dependencies
npm audit
npm audit fix

3. Express Framework (4.21.x)

Express provides a lightweight web framework:

Basic Express App:

import express from 'express';
import { json } from 'express';

const app = express();
app.use(json());

// Routes
app.get('/users', (req, res) => {
    res.json([
        { id: 1, name: 'John' },
        { id: 2, name: 'Jane' }
    ]);
});

app.post('/users', (req, res) => {
    const { name } = req.body;
    res.status(201).json({ id: 3, name });
});

app.get('/users/:id', (req, res) => {
    const { id } = req.params;
    res.json({ id: parseInt(id), name: 'User' });
});

// Error handling
app.use((err, req, res, next) => {
    console.error(err.stack);
    res.status(500).json({ error: 'Internal Server Error' });
});

app.listen(3000, () => {
    console.log('Server running on :3000');
});

Middleware:

// Logging middleware
const logger = (req, res, next) => {
    console.log(\`\${req.method} \${req.path}\`);
    next();
};

// Authentication middleware
const authenticateToken = (req, res, next) => {
    const authHeader = req.headers['authorization'];
    const token = authHeader && authHeader.split(' ')[1];
    
    if (!token) {
        return res.status(401).json({ error: 'Missing token' });
    }
    
    // Verify token...
    next();
};

app.use(logger);
app.use('/api/protected', authenticateToken);

app.get('/api/protected/data', (req, res) => {
    res.json({ data: 'sensitive information' });
});

Level 2: Advanced Patterns (Medium Freedom)

1. Fastify Framework (5.x)

Fastify is performance-focused alternative:

Fastify Setup:

import Fastify from 'fastify';

const fastify = Fastify({ logger: true });

fastify.post<{ Body: { name: string } }>('/users', async (request, reply) => {
    const { name } = request.body;
    return { id: 1, name };
});

fastify.get<{ Params: { id: string } }>('/users/:id', async (request, reply) => {
    const { id } = request.params;
    return { id: parseInt(id), name: 'User' };
});

fastify.listen({ port: 3000 }, (err, address) => {
    if (err) throw err;
    console.log(\`Server listening at \${address}\`);
});

2. Promise Patterns

Advanced Promise usage:

Promise Composition:

// Promise.all - parallel execution
async function fetchMultipleUsers() {
    const [user1, user2, user3] = await Promise.all([
        fetch('/api/users/1').then(r => r.json()),
        fetch('/api/users/2').then(r => r.json()),
        fetch('/api/users/3').then(r => r.json()),
    ]);
    
    return [user1, user2, user3];
}

// Promise.race - first to complete
async function fetchWithTimeout(promise, timeout) {
    return Promise.race([
        promise,
        new Promise((_, reject) =>
            setTimeout(() => reject(new Error('Timeout')), timeout)
        ),
    ]);
}

// Promise.allSettled - all results
async function fetchAll(urls) {
    const results = await Promise.allSettled(
        urls.map(url => fetch(url).then(r => r.json()))
    );
    return results;
}

3. Testing with Vitest

Vitest for modern testing:

Unit Tests:

import { describe, it, expect } from 'vitest';
import { add, multiply } from './math.js';

describe('Math utils', () => {
    it('should add numbers', () => {
        expect(add(2, 3)).toBe(5);
    });
    
    it('should multiply numbers', () => {
        expect(multiply(2, 3)).toBe(6);
    });
});

Integration Tests:

import { describe, it, expect, beforeEach, afterEach } from 'vitest';
import { createServer } from './server.js';

describe('API Endpoints', () => {
    let server;
    
    beforeEach(() => {
        server = createServer();
    });
    
    afterEach(() => {
        server.close();
    });
    
    it('GET /users returns user list', async () => {
        const response = await fetch('http://localhost:3000/users');
        const data = await response.json();
        
        expect(response.ok).toBe(true);
        expect(Array.isArray(data)).toBe(true);
    });
});

Level 3: Production Deployment (Low Freedom, Expert Only)

1. Process Management

PM2 for Process Management:

npm install -g pm2
pm2 start app.js --name "myapp"
pm2 save
pm2 startup

2. Docker Deployment

FROM node:22-alpine

WORKDIR /app
COPY package*.json ./

RUN npm ci --only=production

COPY . .
EXPOSE 3000

CMD ["node", "src/index.js"]

3. Environment Configuration

// config.js
const config = {
    development: {
        port: 3000,
        database: 'mongodb://localhost:27017/mydb',
        logLevel: 'debug',
    },
    production: {
        port: process.env.PORT || 8080,
        database: process.env.DATABASE_URL,
        logLevel: 'info',
    },
};

const env = process.env.NODE_ENV || 'development';
export default config[env];
