SKILL PATH

Become a Node.js Developer

Node.js is a powerful JavaScript runtime built for creating fast, scalable applications. This Skill Path gives you a comprehensive foundation, starting with core Node.js concepts like HTTP, databases, JWT, and WebSockets. Then, you’ll dive into Express.js to build RESTful APIs, implement authentication, validation, real-time communication, and structured logging. Next, you’ll build full stack applications with the MERN stack (MongoDB, Express, React, Node). Finally, you’ll learn Node.js design patterns to architect robust, maintainable back-end systems with confidence.

I prefer Educative courses because they have a nice mix of text & images. I find that with full video courses, it can often be too easy to go into passive learning mode.
