This is the 2019 edition of this curriculum, and as such, it won’t be updated any further. The evergreen edition can be accessed through our subscription here.
Welcome to the Full-Stack Web Development Mini-Degree, the world’s leading approach to go from beginner to professional web developer. This project-oriented curriculum begins by covering the foundations of programming and web development. You’ll learn to create responsive and interactive websites as you get familiar with the basics. We’ll then move on to the server-side and introduce Node.js, Express, Mongo and other frameworks. You’ll be building webapps, REST API’s and scripts.
Following the server-side, we’ll delve further into front-end, this time covering modern frameworks for creating robust applications such as React and Angular. You’ll learn how to integrate these projects with Node.js back-ends and API’s. Important tools such as Git and Github, and the deployment process to popular platforms such as AWS, Azure and Heroku, will be covered in detail as well.
Level up your skills and build an impressive portfolio using Silicon Valley’s most popular techniques and frameworks! Get life-long access to a massive curriculum of courses encompassing topics that range from HTML5 and responsive web design, to JavaScript (ES5 and ES6), Node.js and API development, databases, GraphQL, modern frameworks (React, Angular, jQuery), deployment to AWS and Azure, and version control with Git and Github.
No prior programming experience is required to enroll. We’ll teach you everything you need to know from the absolute ground-up!
