Backend Development
Power the systems behind every app. Build secure, scalable APIs and databases with Node.js, Express and MongoDB.
Course Overview
Every app you use has a backend doing the unglamorous work: storing data, checking who you are, enforcing the rules, and answering the frontend's questions in milliseconds.
This programme teaches that layer from the ground up, using Node.js and Express because the JavaScript ecosystem gives beginners the shortest path from zero to a working API.
