The program is structured over four months and covers three main sections: web development, front-end development/React, and back-end development. Each section builds on the previous one, providing a comprehensive understanding of full-stack development or the option to specialize further.
In the web development section, participants will acquire foundational skills in JavaScript, HTML, and CSS. They will also create a personal portfolio on GitHub to showcase their progress and work.
The front-end development and React section focuses on front-end development using React, one of the most popular frameworks. Participants will learn to write clean and concise code using JavaScript ES6, work with web components in React, and gain skills in testing and deploying React applications.
The back-end development section covers the MERN stack, including MongoDB, ExpressJS, and NodeJS. Participants will become proficient in working with these technologies, as well as learning essential skills for working in the cloud, automated testing, and deployment, providing a solid foundation in DevOps.
By completing the program, participants will be equipped with market-ready coding skills and will have the opportunity to showcase their work through a GitHub portfolio.
