When will I have access to the lectures and assignments?

To access the course materials, assignments and to earn a Certificate, you will need to purchase the Certificate experience when you enroll in a course. You can try a Free Trial instead, or apply for Financial Aid. The course may offer 'Full Course, No Certificate' instead. This option lets you see all course materials, submit required assessments, and get a final grade. This also means that you will not be able to purchase a Certificate experience.

What will I get if I purchase the Certificate?

When you purchase a Certificate you get access to all course materials, including graded assignments. Upon completing the course, your electronic Certificate will be added to your Accomplishments page - from there, you can print your Certificate or add it to your LinkedIn profile.

Is financial aid available?

Yes. In select learning programs, you can apply for financial aid or a scholarship if you can’t afford the enrollment fee. If fin aid or scholarship is available for your learning program selection, you’ll find a link to apply on the description page.

This course offers a comprehensive understanding of web development, concentrating on essential server-side techniques. Topics include the HTTP protocol for browser-server communication, various methods of interaction between browsers and servers, and approaches for web application development.

Students will gain hands-on experience in web server development using Node.js. The course will cover related browser-side techniques such as utilizing HTML forms, structuring data with JSON, and asynchronous JavaScript programming using promises. Additionally, students will explore AJAX for server communication and different web application architectures, including Single Page Applications (SPAs), Multi-Page Applications (MPAs), RESTful APIs, and MVC architecture. The curriculum also introduces web authentication, cookie management, and real-time communication using WebSockets. Throughout the course, students will engage in practical programming exercises, culminating in the development of a multi-player game project. By the end of the course, students will be equipped to apply the technologies and skills they have acquired to create engaging and comprehensive web applications.

单元详情

In this module, you will learn the fundamental HTTP process, which isessential for understanding browser-server communication. You will also discover how to build a web server using Node.js. Given the significant role of JSON in this communication, we will provide a brief introduction to it at the beginning of the module. Additionally, the module will conclude with a discussion on using HTML forms for sending information to the server.
