In the first module, you will explore the principles of backend architecture, focusing on designing scalable and secure backends for real-world applications. They will create a RESTful API using Node.js and Express.js and learn to build a dynamic single-page application with AngularJS. The module also covers how to link the backend with the front end, display data, and manage user interactions in real time.
The second module delves into frontend development principles and user-friendly interface design using HTML, CSS, JavaScript, and AngularJS. Participants will be guided through connecting the frontend with the backend API, handling HTTP requests and responses, and managing user input and form submissions. Additionally, this module emphasizes deployment strategies to ensure the performance and availability of the MEAN stack application.
By the end of this course, you will design and implement a scalable and secure backend using the MEAN stack, build a RESTful API with Node.js and Express.js, integrate it with a front-end SPA using AngularJS, and learn deployment strategies. The course offers hands-on experience and valuable insights, equipping you with the ability to build a complete MEAN stack application from scratch, aligning with real-world application development needs.
This course is part of the Learning MEAN Stack by Building Real world Application Specialization.
Syllabus
Designing Backend for Real-World Application
Module 1
This module will teach you how to design and implement a scalable and maintainable backend for a real-world web application using the MEAN (MongoDB, Express.js, AngularJS, Node.js) stack. You will learn how to architect a backend that can handle a large number of users and requests, and how to implement features like authentication, authorization, and security. You will start by understanding the principles of backend design and architecture, and how to design a backend that can handle the traffic and demands of a real-world application. You will learn how to use Node.js and Express.js to create a RESTful API that can interact with a MongoDB database, and how to use best practices to ensure security and scalability. By the end of this module, you will have the skills and knowledge to design and implement a scalable and secure backend for a real-world web application using the MEAN stack. You will be able to architect a backend that can handle a large number of users and requests.
Creating Frontend & Connecting with Backend
Module 2
This module will teach you how to create a responsive and user-friendly frontend for your MEAN stack application using AngularJS. You will learn how to create views, controllers, and services, and how to use AngularJS to interact with your backend API. You will start by understanding the principles of frontend development, and how to design a user interface that is intuitive and easy to use. You will learn how to use HTML, CSS, and JavaScript to create a responsive and mobile-friendly interface, and how to use AngularJS to handle user interactions and input. Next, you will learn how to use AngularJS to connect your frontend with your backend API. You will learn how to make HTTP requests to your backend, and how to handle responses using promises and observables. You will learn how to create views that display data from your backend, and how to handle user input and form submissions. By the end of this module, you will have the skills and knowledge to create a responsive and user-friendly frontend for your MEAN stack application using AngularJS. You will be able to connect your frontend with your backend API.
