Go Full-Stack With Node.js, Express, and MongoDB at OpenClassrooms Course details
- Individuals who are interested in education and can bring fresh perspectives and want to help build great things

- use Mongoose to access a MongoDB database in an Express app
- create a RESTful web API using Node, Express, and MongoDB
- protect selected routes with token-based authentication in an Express app
- handle user files in an Express app
- Is JavaScript still just a front-end language? Not anymore! With MongoDB, Express, and Node, you can take your JavaScript ninja skills to the back end!
- Starting with Node and Express, you will discover how web apps work on the back end. You will create different routes for the different functions you want to make available in your API. Then you will add MongoDB, a NoSQL database, to make your API fully dynamic and your data fully persistent.
- Many courses of this kind push you into some kind of front-end framework like Angular, React, or Vue. In this course, however, the front-end app is already built! This means that you can fully concentrate on building your API and watch it come to life, honing your back-end skills and leaving you free to choose your own path.
