Full Stack Development (JavaScript, Node.js, React, and Angular)

Introduction:

In today's digital landscape, full stack development has become a vital skill set for creating dynamic and responsive web applications. This course focuses on the comprehensive technology stack involving JavaScript, Node.js, React, and Angular, empowering participants to build powerful front-end and back-end solutions. Participants will learn how to integrate these technologies to create full-fledged web applications, manage databases, and implement user-friendly interfaces. By the end of the course, learners will possess the skills needed to tackle real-world development challenges and produce high-quality applications.

Course Objective:

By the end of this course, participants will:

• Gain a deep understanding of JavaScript as a foundational programming language for web development.

• Learn how to develop server-side applications using Node.js and Express.js.

• Master front-end development techniques using React and Angular frameworks.

• Understand RESTful API design and integration for seamless data communication.

• Build and deploy complete web applications from scratch, leveraging both front-end and back-end technologies.
