Zero-dependency CLI Applications with Node.js - Ian Sutherland, Neo Financial
Virtual - On Demand
Speakers: Ian Sutherland
In the last few years a number of new APIs have been added to the Node.js standard library that make writing CLI applications and other automated tools easier. Common tasks like copying or deleting a directory of files, parsing command line arguments and downloading a file are all possible with the standard library (or will be soon). Previously you had to build this functionality from lower level APIs or use a third-party library but that's no longer necessary in many cases. This talk will introduce these new APIs and show how to build a basic CLI application with them.
