MEAN Stack Development Course

COURSE DESCRIPTION

The MEAN Stack Development course spans twelve weeks, providing a thorough exploration of building dynamic web applications using MongoDB, Express.js, Angular, and Node.js. Students will begin by installing the necessary development tools and setting up their working environments, followed by an introduction to the core components of the MEAN stack.

The course starts with an overview of the MEAN stack technologies, where students will get acquainted with MongoDB, a NoSQL database, and learn to set up and manage data. The focus will be on understanding MongoDB’s flexible schema design, performing CRUD (Create, Read, Update, Delete) operations, and utilizing indexing and aggregation for efficient data handling.

In the following weeks, the course will dive into Express.js, a minimalist web application framework for Node.js. Students will learn to build and manage server-side applications, handle routing, and develop RESTful APIs. The integration of Express.js with MongoDB will be emphasized to create cohesive backend services.

As the course progresses, students will explore Angular, a robust front-end framework for creating interactive single-page applications. They will master Angular’s components, services, and data binding, and integrate it with Express.js to build dynamic user interfaces that interact seamlessly with the backend.

The course will also cover Node.js, focusing on server-side JavaScript execution. Students will learn to manage server logic, handle asynchronous operations, and utilize npm (Node Package Manager) for integrating libraries and tools into their projects.

Midway through the course, advanced topics such as user authentication, real-time communication with WebSockets, and application deployment will be introduced. Students will gain practical experience in securing applications, optimizing performance, and deploying their solutions to various environments.

Towards the end, the course culminates in a capstone project where students will design, develop, and deploy a complete web application using the MEAN stack. This project will integrate all the skills and knowledge acquired throughout the course, demonstrating their ability to build and deploy full-stack solutions.

CERTIFICATION

The MEAN Stack Development course lasts for twelve weeks, equipping students with the skills to develop robust web applications using MongoDB, Express.js, Angular, and Node.js. Starting with environment setup and an overview of MEAN stack components, students will gain comprehensive knowledge in building and deploying full-stack applications.
