I was just wondering why you don't use semicolons? I'm fairly new to node, so thanks a lot for making this book. You do a great job of explaining things in a simple, practical way. Thank you!

hiya, thanks for the question.

semicolons are a style choice. some people are scared that they caused bugs but in all my JS programming i've never had any issues not using them. there are 3 or 4 situations where you have to use them but they are easy to remember

Interesting - I've never heard that before. Thanks for answering :)
