SE COMPUTER STUDENTS ATTEND NODE JS WORKSHOP

C-codes association along with the Computer Department organized a workshop on Node JS. It was conducted on 27 April 2019 from 1:00 pm to 5:30 pm for second year computer engineering students. Around 20 students attended the workshop. The resource person for the workshop was Mr. Adnan Sayed from company One-Stop Solutions. The coordinators for the workshop was Prof. Siya Naik and Prof. Merwyn D’Souza.

Students were first introduced to what Node JS is all about, how it helps in making tasks simpler and how it can solve some of the problems that are not possible with the help of an example. This workshop also included a simultaneous coding session. Some of the basic commands like print and initialization statements particular to node js were explained.

Students were further introduced to three types of modules (libraries) in node js : in-built modules, third-party modules and user-defined modules.  Various in-built modules and their functionalities were explained to students. Programs were implemented which involves in-built modules.                                                                                         Installation process of third-party modules were demonstrated to students and programs using these libraries were also performed.

Students were taught to create their own module (user-defined) and use these in the programs. Session was concluded by writing a code that behaves like a calculator.
