Note to everyone watching: if you ever see your browser spin-waiting as seen in some points in this video, that's usually an indication that the app isn't completing a path through your middleware or route handlers. Sometimes it's a missing call to next(), like shown here. Sometimes there's a code path through a route handler that doesn't call a res.end(), res.json(), or res.whatever().

yeah .. learned that hard way ! (took me a week to figure out )
Great video! You may be one of the few that totally explains Express middleware. Also I agree that understanding middleware will help make you a better Express Developer. I feel like a better Express Dev already

sure , because express itself build on 2 concepts first is middleware function second is callback functions . if you comfortable with these concepts so you good to go
Zach! Brotha! You have single-handedly demystified everything surrounding Express and Passport for me. Something literally every major js tutorial youtuber has failed to do. So glad I found you man, thanks again. Subbed.
One of the few tutorial makers who create understandable ones. You deserve more views.
I have been trying to understand middleware concept ,watched several tutorial ,this explains everything perfectly and all my doubt cleared.its the best explanation on KZread after watching all explanation on middleware
Such understandable explanations. I love that he fully explains how and why things work.
This is the best resource for understanding Express middleware on the whole internet
Bro I've watched so many videos on Express middleware and NONE of them covers the concepts like you do. They are all just spitting out code without explaining WHY things work the way they do. I found the error handling and next() explanations extremely helpful. Thank you!

Nice, that’s definitely the goal of this channel. I want to show 1) why something works and 2) how I figured it out. Glad to hear you’re getting that out of it!!
The guy just gives concepts, rather than giving "how to do this" or "how to do that" tutorials.... Love from Pakistan
I like your teaching very much! it is clear, calm. thank you so much, I've learnt a lot from you
Really appreciate the longer videos like these that really dig into the details. Thanks again so much! Subscribed.
Thank you very much for helping to understand the middlewares in express. I have been confusing in understanding the middlewares since last a couple of months and today you helped me to understand this concept very well. Thank you again.

One of the more graceful explanations I've seen. Thank you!
Bro! I am very thankful for this video, not just because such a video is available because of you, but also the time you took to explain everything seamlessly.
WOW, Thank you Zach! I love seeing the new group of instructors, they are really good! I am a new subscriber now, I hope more people discover your channel! The only feedback I have, is I think your volume should be a little higher. I heard it fine, but I had to put up the volume to its highest level on the video itself and my laptop and it was perfect, but I was in a quiet room, other than that it was great. I am going to checkout the Passport videos next!
Yeeaaah finally i get a great explanation about Express middleware , no boring ! Thanks a lot Mr.Zach

After reading/watching from multiple sources, finally someone who teaches this concept in a way that I get it!!!! Thanks Zach!!! Your teaching abilities are amazing!!! Props!!!!
This video is gold. Definitely came away knowing so much more about middleware. Thanks for explaining it so well.

So much detailed explanation . Blessed to come across your tutorial. Great job. Please keep posting like this. You are going to take over the express tutorial.

Amazing! It should be the first thing to understand and master, congrats Zach!
Yup, I'm in love lol thanks for series, it's a masterpiece. Appreciate you man
Wow excellent explanation of the topic. I have been scratching my head since last week. searching all over the internet to find a simple explanation of node. express and server, but explanations over the internet are filled with jargons that only experienced developers can understand. Keep sharing such type of excellent content, it means a lot for people like me. Liked and Subscribed.
Wow! never thought I could understand this in one video. Definitely subscribing!
Thank you very much for the time and effort you invest into making these videos. They are high quality, and you're the first developer on KZread I've actually seen explain these things. Thanks again.

This is the only video in youtube that you can easily understand what is middleware is
you got a talent for explaining, keep it up brodie
Superb .. I know what is middleware earlier .. they are good as well .. but yours is deep .. loved it
Best Video on Middleware. Thank you so much for this video
Damn thank you so much man. I just recently started learning about the backend of things, specifically I just started with Express.js and man, this definitely is a bit more difficult than I anticipated. The middleware concept had me initially so confused. But I just finished this entire video and saw your KZread Header Image, I definitely must say, after watching this video, this hard concept has FINALLY clicked 😄 Thank you so much man! Overall I think you delivered this extremely well. The general pace and simple examples with thorough explanations really add value.
Awesome job, finally someone taught me the REAL basic to build my castle of express upon, THANKS A LOT, no mattter how much I thank you it will never be enough
excellent one of the best if not the best! Thank you Zach!
This is super clear and useful, thank you!
Wowww, I have been working with middlewares without actually understanding it in such details...THANK YOU!!!!!!!!!! My Computer Professor I never had
Excellent explanation. Very helpful❤
Thank you so much, I was so confused until today that I switched to long polling for my chat app just cause I didn't really get the real flowcharts although my socket io application is working just fine.. this is the best tutorial on this topic and explains everything that is required, others use too many middlewares or middlewares along with templating engines and other cool technologies..
This guy really deserve to be noticed by "so called" developer community on KZread
Great job! The one thing that I still haven't seen demonstrated in any of these Express middleware videos is content negotiation, something that can return an error too, such as a 406 or a 415.
Thanks so much for this awesome explanation Zach. This helped me alot
Great explanation.Much needed.
Thank you brother, this series is helping me so much...
Great video It's very clear and informative Thanks!
Very nice tutorial. A lot of things to learn and this video will definitely help you.
Very much needed video. Thank you very much.
A very brain friendly explanation, keep up the good work
Zach! Super thanx from Denmark, it helps so much!! ;
Great video, thank you so much! Keep making these videos!
Fantastic explanation! Now I have a much better understanding when it comes to what happens when I app.use() libraries like bodyParser, Helmet, Cors and so on...
Very well explained... Thank you and very grateful for this wonderfull resource.

You're doing a very good job. I have skimmed through your videos in this video's playlist, at first, I supposed that I already knew it, but your explanation makes me clearer understood. However, I have to increase the video play speed to 1.5x. Last word, thanks! :D
