JavaScript has evolved into a one-stop-shop coding language for displaying and hosting web applications. This course will open your eyes to what today’s JavaScript can really do.
You’ll start by exploring the capabilities of the Node.js framework. Node.js provides the ability for JavaScript programmers to create server-side architecture so that anyone can host their very own application. Node.js will allow you to work with the built-in file system, run development servers, and even program listening devices.
After that, you'll learn Express to manage the flow of data entering and leaving your application. Express is a Node.js framework for creating web apps and services. It offers developers a set of features and middleware (functions that handle requests) for creating an API for their web application. Express is a must-have skill set when dealing with Node.js and back-end technology.
Finally, you'll learn MongoDB. If you’ve worked with JavaScript, chances are you’re familiar with the concept of an object. Objects organize a dataset through key value pairs. It’s a simple yet effective solution to creating data structures. MongoDB harnesses the power of the object as well as JSON to create, store, and manage your data in a lightweight manner. It’s also open source!
When you finish this advanced course, you'll have the skills to build functional web applications with JavaScript and its frameworks.
Students should be comfortable with the fundamentals of JavaScript equivalent to our JavaScript Programming Fundamentals class, including functions, objects, and data types, as well as the basics of HTML & CSS.
From our hands-on training style to world-class instructors and custom-crafted curriculum, we deliver results our alumni are proud of.
I completed the JavaScript Development with Node, Express, and MongoDB course in person at Noble Desktop in January 2025. This course helped to demystify back-end architectures for websites and web apps. I was lucky enough to have Colin Jaffe as my instructor. Colin is an approachable, fun, and passionate teacher who is clearly in a job he cares about. At the end of the course, I am confident with back-end architectures for web apps, and I can write my web apps with CRUD functionality relevant to the industry I want to work in and post them to my portfolio on GitHub. I recommend this course as a key component for anyone looking to improve their understanding of how full-stack websites and web apps work!
I highly recommend Noble Desktop and the JavaScript program for anyone who wants to get started with web development. Colin is one of the best instructors I've ever had. His way of teaching is very easy to follow, and he's very engaging with the students. Thanks to Colin, and thanks to the admin folks who he helped me sign up, it was a great experience overall.
Whew! There's a lot to learn in this course. I am grateful Colin was my guide on this deep and complex journey into communicating with APIs.
