Just on the first page of Nest, they proudly claim :
A progressive Node.js framework for building efficient, reliable and scalable server-side applications.
The only word I can't grasp is progressive and what that can means in the programming world.
Can anyone explain the concept to me?
According to a Dictionary on the web progressive means happening or developing gradually or in stages.
What I infer from their website about them is "NestJs Takes advantage of latest JavaScript features, bringing design patterns and mature solutions to Node.js world."
and indeed they are doing so by making it more extensible and versatile.
Well, this has nothing to do with PWA(Progressive Web App) Hope this answers your question.

I have been working with standalone applications for past 2 years, and have lost touch with all sorts of web applications/services. I heard this NodeJS,AngularJS being popular amongst my peers, where to begin from? I have an interview for NodeJS 4 days later? Tell me all that I should read and please suggest a small project too that I can do on it to learn well? Thanks..
For my personal experience I think that you should start to learn about the core of Node.JS both C++ and JavaScript, how it integrates with the V8 Engine (Javascript interpreter) and what new language features were implemented and why they are what makes Node.JS an amazing environment and Javascript an Server Side Language.
Then learn why they call itself asynchronous and event-driven framework. This is essential to learn how the framework works.
Go deep into module.export and require function
Have fun understanding how NPM packages work together
But as long as you only have 4 days I would recommend you to buy a proper course in Udemy or something like, grab some bags of your favorite Doritos flavor, some beverages and get in love with Node.JS

I am learning hapi.js, A framework of node.js. I gone through some tutorials but i didn't get the exact specialty of hapi compared to other frameworks. I want to know why hapi.js is special when compared to other frameworks of node.js. Could anyone help me ?
hapi is special because of many reasons but in particular it is modular and promotes configuration over code approach which helps when managing larger complex business applications. The modular plugin system enables specific logic to be separated to help with development especially in teams.

I would like to start learning JavaScript for the purpose of making browser/handheld games and responsive websites. A friend of mine recently showed me HTML5 canvas. I was confused about whether I need to learn HTML5 canvas in order to make games.
I have done some research and all I could find is people talking about HTML5 and JavaScript. So is it necessary?
You don't need HTML5 Canvas, however it can be useful in game creation..
It is recommended that you use HTML5! Since it is the current standard.
Javascript will probably be important as well as PHP/MySQL or some other server side scripting language.

I've recently finished watching some beginner JavaScript tutorials; it's quite easy to understand. I'm trying to look for intermediate ones now, but I can't find any. So I've decided to not waste time while looking for some continuation on my JavaScript journey. What should I learn next? I prefer that which is important, and perhaps, closely related to JavaScript.
It depends on what your goal is, and what you have already learned.
If you want to become a web developer, you should learn some server-side web languages like PHP or ASP.NET.
If you want to become a general developer, it would be useful to know systems languages like Java or C++.
If you want to be a computer scientist, studying algorithms might be a good start.

Can't help myself, but why are there scripting languages such as PHP running on webservers? Why not compiler languages like C? What's the advantage of using a script language on a webserver? Just heard that the biggest part of Facebook was written in PHP. Afterwards the developers introduced HipHop as a Compiler for translating into C.
Why didn't they start to program in C?
Same for client based scripting. What's the reason for using interpreted languages?
Economics. Computer time is cheap. Programmer time is not.
In big conclusion - its more convenient.
