Materials for EmpireNode 2014 nodeschool workshop

nodeschool.io is a community driven, open source educational software that teaches various Node.js and JavaScript skills in an interactive, self-guided format. At EmpireNode, we'll be offering workshops for every skill level -- from Node beginners to a more seasoned challenge.

This set of nodeschool.io workshops include:

• Learn You Node! "Learn the basics of node: asynchronous i/o, http"

• ByteWiser "Learn how to manipulate binary data in node.js and HTML5 browsers."

• Level Me Up Scotty! "Learn to use leveldb, a simple key/value store with a vibrant package ecosystem"

We'll also be offering a unique opportunity to work on returning the favor to our friends at nodeschool by contributing! We'll have mentors on hand while you help fix bugs, answer questions to others who have attempted workshoppers, or create your own.

These workshoppers will run concurrently and time is limited, so you'll most likely get through just one this event.
