Node.js Foundations: Building Type-Safe APIs with Express and Prisma - Web Development (Professional Practice)

A front-end is only half the application. This course teaches you how to build the other half: the powerful, server-side API. We will use the modern, professional stack of Node.js, Express, and Prisma, with TypeScript enforcing type safety from the database to the API response. This is how robust, production-grade back-ends are built. The skills taught here are a direct response to industry demand. Companies require fast, scalable, and maintainable back-end services. This stack allows you to build exactly that, providing a type-safe connection between your application and its data. This is the practical skillset required to build real-world products and secure a modern back-end or full-stack development role. You will build a complete REST API from scratch using Node.js and Express. You will learn to model your database schema with Prisma, perform all core CRUD operations in a type-safe manner, and structure your application for professional-grade maintainability. This course is designed for developers with a solid understanding of JavaScript or TypeScript who want to master back-end development. It is the essential next step for front-end developers moving to full-stack, as well as for back-end developers from other languages looking to learn the modern Node.js ecosystem.

[Intermediate] Modern Full-Stack Development Foundations - From Vanilla JS to Web Applications
This learning track bridges the gap between knowing JavaScript and becoming a full-stack developer. You will stop writing isolated scripts and start building complete, modern web applications. We will construct a professional front-end with React and Next.js, build a type-safe back-end API with Node.js and Express, and then integrate and deploy the two halves into a single, cohesive product. This programme is for the developer who has mastered the fundamentals of HTML, CSS, and JavaScript and is ready to build real-world applications. It is the essential next step for front-end developers aiming for full-stack roles, and for back-end developers seeking to master the modern JavaScript ecosystem. At the end of this learning track, you will be able to build, integrate, and deploy a complete, type-safe, full-stack web application using the modern professional stack. This track provides the end-to-end skills required to secure a role as a modern full-stack web developer.
