Course Description

Node.js is a technology that you can quickly become familiar with, but it can be hard to master to build fast and secure solutions. Instead of covering the basics, this course will help you to progress to understand advanced concepts such as asynchronicity, the event loop, clean error handling with Express Middleware and functional reactive programming.
You will start off by working through the process of creating a subscription management system, where you will optimize directory structures. This will help you with the organization, as Node.js apps usually don't follow filename and directory conventions. As you delve deeper into the course, you'll learn how to build an API in the form of microservices, managed through PM2. As you progress, you will connect and utilize two of the most widely used technologies in the Node.js World; MySQL, the most commonly used relational database, and Redis, a popular technology used in caching. Once you've built a solid infrastructure, you'll be able to build an authentication service with the help of Passport and JSON Web Tokens.
By the end of this course, you will be able to tackle harder challenges in your Node.js projects by efficiently using the best tools available, while also meeting demanding industry standards for a clean and scalable code.

Excellent training course with a lot of trending technologies needed to be a back-end developer.

By Marek Javůrek

In 2019 I was expecting fullHD resolution in videos.... But content is great ;)

By Andrew Karp

I thought it would be more expert level

By Donald Paul Winston

Quick and precise. Material on best practices makes this course worth while.

By Cássio Paixão

O instrutor ensina bons padrões para uso no projeto, além de explicar bem como o NodeJS funciona em seu core. Isso ajuda muito a construir bons códigos (readability e performance).

By Tomáš Livora

The author goes quickly through various technologies you need to know in order to create complex Node.js applications. The course is ideal for someone who knows JavaScript and has already worked with other back-end technologies but hasn't used Node.js yet.

By Underwater Eidi

The author shows clear mastery of the NodeJs ecosystem, and covers lots of complex content in a structured and clear manner... highly recommend !

By Felix Eyetan

Great course. Very hands on and detailed every step of the way and in short videos. Was nice to get another perceptive on building web services.

By Xavier ABENAQUI

Very good content, one of the best course on node.js and the best for Clean Architecture on Udemy

By Muh Nizomuddin Fauza Sidiq

nice course

By German Viescas

The content of the course is great and the instructor is very good, providing clear and concise explanations. I am an experienced full-stack developer and I picked up some interesting ideas to keep my code cleaner. I don't rate it with five stars because the questions are not answered by the instructor directly, they are handled by Packt, which means unnecessary back and forth and, generally speaking, useless answers.
