What is Nodejs

NodeJs is an open source runtime environment. Runtime simply means something that is executable in it's own environment. Nodejs was built on google's chrome v8 javascript engine.

Node is not a convention based platform where everything is thought through such as the database, sessions, authentication, etc. For example PHP, Ruby on Rails etc. NodeJs has no idea or does not know which database you are going to hook on to.

Node is not recommmended for high CPU intensive operations like reading the file system asynchronously, or machine learning or large arithemetic. Node is good when it comes to concurrency.

Pagination

To paginate a page, a general algorithm needs to be followed. Also, you should have the following variables in place:

Total items availabe or Items count (It can be a list of patients, books, etc coming from the database)
Number of items to display per page or Page size
Page count or number of pagination buttons to be rendered (**NB:**This needs to be calculated)

Calculation:

Firebase

Set up firebase and Deploy

Head over to firebase. Sign in and create a project.
Copy your project settings under Firebase SDK snippet into your local project (ie your project's api key, auth domain, databaseURL, etc)
Create a file (firebase.js or config.js Any name that suits you is fine)
