CS50W is Harvard's follow-on web programming course offered on edX, building on CS50 and covering building web applications with Python, JavaScript, and databases. It expands the final weeks of CS50 into a full course.

Sure I learned PHP but have no idea how to make a large application on it with a framework. If you want to get your feet wet I suggest you to check that out. For Node.js I found…

    Ok, thanks for your input. I will point out though that this isn't a bootcamp, this is the same Intro to Computer Science class that Harvard teaches to the on-campus students. They then decided to offer the same course online through edx.org. They do offer a series of courses, so I don't think…
