Go to course ↗

A Udemy course by Brad Traversy that walks through building a full social network app (DevConnector) with MongoDB, Express, React and Node.js. It covers both front-end and back-end pieces of a MERN stack project.

Commenters call it a good full-stack walkthrough that shows how front end and back end fit together, and say it is worth buying when it is on sale for about $10.

    Second this. I've used Brad courses for 2-3 times now, having completed both his HTML/CSS from the beginning, Javascript from the beginning, and React Front to Back, as well as 20 VanillaJS projects and bits of the Bootstrap course. He's really, really good, and teaches you not only how these…

    Damn, you did a nice job in this list! And, you're right. Brad does a great job of explaining the concepts and giving real world examples. I just bought his MERN stack course from Udemy, which is very well put together. It was only ten bucks, which is totally worth it when you are ready to level…

    Putting this here for others who might have come across this post that use javascript and the MERN stack for web development. I recommend the Udemy course by Braversy MERN Stack Front To Back: Full Stack React, Redux & Node.js (I would call it an upper intermediate level course). It goes through…

    Pick a web framework and create the basic functionality (crud, logins & accounts etc). https://www.udemy.com/course/mern-stack-front-to-back/ This course builds a social media website, using the MERN stack (Mongo database, Express framework, React frontend, NodeJS). You can follow along and adapt…

    Obviously there are many paths you could take after this. Your interests seem to be in full-stack and React. Therefore I recommend you become a master of the MERN stack (MongoDB, Express, React and NodeJs). I haven't done it but I hear the project you build in this course is awesome…

    What I would say is get comfortable with JS first and foremost before moving on - what you're looking for relates to back-end development, and you can use your JS skills to build a server using Node.JS if you want to. Realistically there's a ton of routes you can take. Could learn Python, PHP, or…

  10. Recommendsnbg91r/webdev2018in “I need personal opinion of front and back-end”

    First off, front end developer doesn't necessarily mean designer. Like you, I know what a cool website looks like, and enjoy creating interfaces, just can't make my own look that great (without sinking a lot of time in to studying design principles that don't interest me all that much). &#x200B…

    Brad Traversy css and html course is really good and more new than Jonas course that jam too much into one video and later you are just trying to keep up writing the code in his videos without knowing why. After that javascript is the most important skill like if you going the node.js its just…

  12. Mentionsmvasighr/webdev2018in “Is Colt Steele web dev bootcamp still the go to training course for someone starting fresh on web dev or is there a better source out there?”

    Yes! It's outdated for sure in terms of not at all introducing ES6 stuff and not using Promises etc. But I would use it as a high-level introduction to all of the different aspects of a full-stack workflow and then deep-dive into each specific subtopic. Colt is an amazing teacher and that can't be…
