Any up-to-date tutorials of Express 4.0 with Node.js?

Question

I am trying to learn Node.js and I've been using Lynda.com, the book Node.js in Action, and I've scoured the web trying to look for online tutorials for current versions of Express (Express ~4.2) with Node.js.

Almost everything I've seen has Express 3.4 and this has a lot of deprecated code. These have become more of a hindrance than a help.

Does anyone know any good videos or step-by-step tutorials with updated versions of Express? Thank you.

EDIT: The answer given below from Waldo was perfect, and anyone having the same issues I had should use the links given by Waldo.

I have found additional information for those wanting more help learning Express 4.0 or navigating from Express 3.0 to 4.0.

A GitHub guide to code changed from 3.0 to 4.0

Create server-side MVC apps with Node.js and Express

Creating RESTful APIs with Express 4 (Thank you Romo!)

Lynda.Com has one updated tutorial, but they also have at least two more with deprecated code.

Can [this](http://www.sitepoint.com/creating-restful-apis-express-4/) tutorial help you ? :/ — Romo Daneghyan, Aug 20 '14 at 06:32
Looks promising, thank you! I'll add that to my question post. — Les Paul, Aug 20 '14 at 06:35

That doesn't answer the question or help in the slightest. The forum post is only related in that in involves Node.js. It doesn't deal specifically with the newest version of Express like my question does. Besides, for a comprehensive guide to Node.js this is a much better forum question: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/2353818/how-do-i-get-started-with-node-js — Les Paul, Aug 20 '14 at 07:05
https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Learn/Server-side/Express_Nodejs/skeleton_website is a very good tutorial! — KansaiRobot, Dec 04 '18 at 07:07
