Professional JavaScript

4 Days

24 CPD hours

If you want to advance from being a front-end developer to a full-stack developer and learn how Node.js can be used for hosting full-stack applications, this course is for you. Knowledge of JavaScript's basic syntax and experience with popular front-end libraries such as jQuery is required. You should also have used JavaScript with HTML and CSS, but not necessarily Node.js.

By the end of this course, you'll have the skills you need to tackle any real-world JavaScript development problem using a modern JavaScript approach, both for client and server sides.After completing this course, you will be able to:
Apply the core concepts of functional programming
Build a Node.js project that uses the Express.js library to host an API
Create unit tests for a Node.js project to validate it
Use the Cheerio library with Node.js to create a basic web scraper
Develop a React interface to build processing flows
Use callbacks as a basic way to bring control back

This is your one-stop solution to mastering modern JavaScript. This course covers the latest features of JavaScript and advanced concepts, such as modularity, testing, and asynchronous programming. By the end of the course, you?ll know how to create a full-stack JavaScript application using NodeJS and how to use JavaScript in functional programming.
