Are you ready to learn the art of building robust and scalable REST & GraphQL APIs? Look no further! This comprehensive course on NestJS is here to guide you through the process of building high-performance APIs.
In this course, you will learn about routing and controllers, using databases including TypeORM for data persistence with Repository, Query Builder, and Relations. You will also explore how to use Docker in your local development workflow and how to perform data validation and serialization.
We dive deep into NestJS modules, Dependency Injection, and Providers, and you will learn about configuring, logging, and error handling. You'll be introduced to authentication using Passport.js and Bcrypt, and you'll understand the concept of JSON Web Tokens (JWT) tokens, how to generate them, and how to use them.
The course also covers authorization and ensuring the user has the necessary privileges. We'll teach you how to use Postman effectively, including creating collections, environments, and automating Postman. Additionally, you'll learn about unit and end-to-end testing, including connecting to a database.
Last but not least, you'll gain hands-on experience building GraphQL APIs and become a pro in no time. The course comes with full source code, diagrams, and visuals to help you understand the concepts better. If you ever get stuck, I'm always available to help you in the Q&A section or on our Discord community. With a focus on practical skills and real-world applications, this course is designed to give you the knowledge and confidence you need to build and deploy your own REST & GraphQL APIs.
