About Course
This course is a practical introduction to Node.js, a powerful JavaScript runtime environment that enables server-side programming. Node.js allows developers to use JavaScript to build scalable, high-performance backend applications — from APIs to real-time web services.
Students will learn the fundamentals of Node.js, including working with modules, handling asynchronous operations, setting up servers, connecting to databases, and building RESTful APIs. The course also covers the use of popular tools and libraries like Express.js and npm. By the end of the course, learners will be able to build and deploy dynamic web applications using Node.js.
