Looks great -- and I really appreciate that the demo site is not a cookie-cutter twitter clone like half the tutorials out there.

Thanks! I can't stand twitter clones either, I figured it was better to have people learn to build something out of their comfort zone.

I really like this is not an ebook per se, but an interactive tutorial. The checkbox to save your progress are really great :) Congratulations!

One advantage of the MEAN stack is that you only need to know javascript to start developing on it, which saves time and brainpower to get started.

That being said, I'm curious if there are other advantages to learn the MEAN stack?

This article/book was marked as [dead] for a while, then got unmarked. How exactly does that happen?

I love that the example site being built in your tutorial is a fantasy football app, great choice.

Looking forward to the player draft functionality with socket.io

ESPN's FF interface is horrendous, I had to do something about it. Next sections of the tutorial are almost done, keep an eye out!

Is there a demo of the finished app somewhere? I don't want to read or buy the tutorial before I see how good the actual result is.
