Course Description

In this course you will learn the fundamentals of back-end web development! You will create your own web application that queries a database for items on restaurant menus and then dynamically generates complete menus in the form of web pages and API endpoints.You'll start by learning how to interact with a database from a web application using an Object-Relational Mapping (ORM) layer. From there, you'll learn how GET and POST requests translate to CRUD operations. You'll then explore the Flask framework and the various ways in which it can speed up the development of your applications. Finally, you'll develop your very own web application from the ground up using the iterative development process.
