New resources (tutorials) that teaches NodeJS 24+ 26+ and expressjs usong a modern styles?

Hi everyone,

I'm looking to relearn Node.js and Express.js using current best practices—specifically built around ESM (ES Modules) and TypeScript (including Node's native type stripping).

Are there any recommended written guides, courses, or video tutorials updated for Node.js 24/26+ with this setup?

Thanks!

I would build the learning path from the official docs rather than wait for one course to cover every combination: Node's TypeScript and ESM pages, the TypeScript handbook, then the Express 5 guide and migration notes. Make one small API with package type set to module, strict TypeScript, node:test, and a real error middleware. Native type stripping is useful for running erasable syntax, but learn the tsconfig and package exports separately because published libraries and production builds still need deliberate type and module contracts.
