Essential Skills For Node.js Developers

Front End Expertise

Node developers mainly focus on the back end. However, they also need to visit the front-end time and again to sculpt an enjoyable user experience. Hence, it is important for any developer to know front end technologies such as HTML, JavaScript, and CSS. In 2021, the most popular front-end frameworks are React and Vue.

Database Management

Knowledge about persistence layers such as databases and proficiency in storing dynamic data are important. This is because a codebase is not enough to run an application. In this framework, the best way to interact with a database is through an ORM (Object Relational Mapping) tool.

Cloud

Another crucial element to look for while hiring developers is their ability to deploy applications to a cloud platform. A good grasp on AWS or Azure or even Now, Heroku, or Netlify is as important as knowing the tech itself in 2021.

Asynchronous Programming

It is necessary for the developer to know his or her way around asynchronous programming and it workarounds. This helps in reducing waiting periods. This in turn increases productivity as asynchronous or non-blocking I/O lets two or more functions to be executed at the same time.

User Authentication

Authorization across multiple systems, servers, and environments is a skill that needs to be considered inevitable among developers.

MVC Familiarity

If the context is a large business or enterprise, it is imperative that the coder understand MVC frameworks. This enables customized and data driven web APIs.

With these six skills intact, you can be sure that you have one of the best JS engineers at your disposal. However, this is not a comprehensive list, but a compulsory one. There are other aspects such as package management, source control, web app frameworks, data security, error handling, and RESTful APIs among others that need to be looked for. If this feels slightly overwhelming or if you keep second guessing about the necessity of hiring a Node developer, keep reading. Let us sum this up on a fantastic note.
