RESTful API with Express

О курсе

This course features Coursera Coach! A smarter way to learn with interactive, real-time conversations that help you test your knowledge, challenge assumptions, and deepen your understanding as you progress through the course. In this course, you'll dive into building RESTful APIs using Express, a Node.js framework. By the end, you'll have the skills to create a fully functional API, from setting up a Node project and installing necessary modules to handling routes, middleware, and data persistence. Along the way, you'll get hands-on experience creating routes, adding middleware, and setting up data models. You'll start by learning the basics of Express and how to build a simple application. From there, you’ll tackle more complex aspects such as implementing middleware, defining routes, and using tools like Postman to test your API. As you progress, you’ll learn how to model and persist data, ensuring your API can handle real-world use cases. The course covers advanced topics such as adding and tracking object locations, refactoring models, and incorporating universal identifiers for better data handling. Whether you're looking to expand your knowledge of backend development or build APIs from scratch, this course will provide you with the essential tools. This course is perfect for those interested in backend development, software engineers, or anyone keen to build scalable APIs. A basic understanding of JavaScript and Node.js is recommended, but the course is accessible to anyone with some programming background.
