Course Description

In this course, wewill learn how to write reactive microservices, backends and RESTAPIs using the powerful Akka HTTP.
You'll write 2000+lines of Akka codeyourself, with guidance,and you will become a rockstar.
This course is for Scala/Akka programmers who need to designlarge-scale reactive HTTPbackends and microservices.
You probably knowAkka already:
it speeds up the development of concurrent applications by as much as 10xits demand has explodedit's a highly marketable skillit'sincredibly fun- power in your hands!
I like to get to the point and get things done.
This course deconstructsall conceptsinto the critical pieces you needselectsthe most important ideasand separates them into what's simple butcritical and what's powerfulsequencesideas in a way that "clicks" and makes sense throughout the process of learningapplieseverythingin live codeThe end benefits are still much greater:
a completely new mental model around stream-based microservicesa more marketable resumemore enjoyable work- Akka is fun!
This course is forestablished programmerswith experience with Scala and Akka (including Akka Streams) at the level of the Rock the JVM courses. I already assume a solid understanding of general programming fundamentals.
This course is NOT for you ifyou've never written Scala code beforeyou've never worked with AkkaThe course is comprehensive, butyou'll always see me get straight to the point. So make sure you have a good level of focus and commitment to become a badass programmer.
Ibelieve both theoryandpractice are important. That's why you'll get lectures with code examples, real life code demos and assignments, plus additional resources, instructions, exercises and solutions.
I've seen that my students are most successful - and my best students work at Google-class companies -when they're guided, but not being told what to do. I have exercises waiting for you, where I offer my (opinionated)guidance but otherwisefreedom to experiment and improve upon your code.
Definitely not least, my students are most successful when they have fun along the way!
So join me in this course and let's rock the JVM!
Who this course is for:
Scala/Akka developers who need to design reactive backends, REST APIs and microservices

Time: 10h

I'm a software engineer with a passion forteaching. Big fan of Scala and the JVM.
I have a Master's Degree in Computer Science and Iwrote my Bachelorand Mastertheses on Quantum Computation. Before starting to learn programming, I won medals at international Physics competitions.
For 7+ years, I've taught a variety of Computer Science topics to 30000+ of students at various levels. I've heldHourof Code for 7 year-olds, I've taught university students who now work at Google and Facebook, I've held live trainings for software engineering teams at Adobe and Apple, and I'm now soexcited to share what I know with a wider community online.

As usual in Daniel's courses, fantastic

By Maksymilian Raski on 9/17/2020

Really good course. Of course it's possible to learn from documentation (documentation of akka is really good), but learning from this series is much faster in my opinion (and more pleasant). The only downside is that the content isn't using the newest version of scala and akka. A few things are deprecated, but finding the equivalent, up-to-date implementation isn't hard.

It's great, I had to learn akka http for my new job and thanks to this course I am understanding everything much better. Daniel is a great teacher, he speaks in concise and clear way and knows how to explain things and keep you interested.
