RESTful Web Service using Node js

I am new to node js and trying to publish a RESTful web service with it. I found few tutorials online but they are not very explanatory or meant for advanced users.

I did check rectify framework. But it seems to appropriate for advanced Node JS users.

Is Node.js GOOD FOR REST API?

Node. js has large and active community that contribute many useful and mature modules which can be easily included and used. For example, to construct REST API such known modules as express, restify and hapi fit perfectly.

Does Node.js have Web API?

One of the main reasons for using Node. js is that you can create quickly RESTful web APIs with it.

You might benefit from taking a look at a few of the frameworks that are out there that make that sort of thing easier.

Take a look at express.js or hapi.js and see how they build routes, etc.

How new are you to RESTful services in general?
