Web Applications with Vue.js, Node.js, and MongoDB Courseware (MEVN100)
In this 5-day course, students will start with an optional review of advanced JavaScript, followed by the fundamental concepts and structures of Vue.js development. Students will use Vue.js to build a real-world frontend application through a series of hands-on labs.
In the 2nd part of the course, students will learn the fundamentals using Node and Express to build an API for the Vue frontend application using a MongoDB database.
Students will then connect the Vue frontend with the Node.js backend.
Professional Vue.js is a complete introduction to modern full-stack development. It covers the syntax, conventions, and best practices of modern JavaScript development while also teaching Vue.js, Node.js, and MongoDB. Through a series of hands-on exercises and demonstrations, students will learn how to develop and test complete Vue/Node/Mongo applications.
