Microservices with React, Node.JS/TS, Mongo & NATS Streaming

What You Will Learn!

Architect large, scalable apps using a collection of microservices
Solve concurrency issues in a distributed systems environment
Build a React App to render data from your microservices
Share reusable code between multiple Express servers using custom NPM packages
Communicate data between services using a lightning-fast event bus
Develop a multi-service app with Docker and Kubernetes
Leverage your Javascript skills to build a complex web app
Write nothing but production-level code. No cutting corners!

Description

Event-Based Architecture? Covered! Server side rendering with React? Yep. Scalable, production-ready code? Its here!

How This Course Works

This course doesn't focus on using an off-the-shelf microservices framework. Many exist, but they hide the inner workings and challenges of microservices away from you. Instead, we will be using a minimal number of libraries, and write as much custom code as possible. This will expose you to challenging problems and clever solutions when handling subjects like async events!

What Technology You'll Use

Because we are building a full stack application, we will use a variety of technologies. On the frontend, we'll use React and Next JS to present content to users. Each service is created using Node and Express. Data for each service is held in either a Mongo database. The entire app is deployed and runs in Docker containers executed in a Kubernetes cluster. Finally, almost all of the code in this course is written with Typescript.

This is a scary list of technologies! Not familiar with some of these? No problem! The course is built assuming that you only know the basics of Javascript and Express. No other knowledge is needed - you will learn everything you need to know.

What You'll Be Able to Do

By the time you complete this course, you will be able to:

Architect a multi-service application
Determine whether your app is a good fit for a microservices approach
Use Docker and Kubernetes to deploy a multi-service app to any cloud provider
Organize and enhance the reusability of code in large projects

What You'll Learn

An absolute incredible number of topics are covered in this course. Here is a partial list of what you'll do:

Practice patterns to create scalable microservices for a variety of app domains
Write a custom implementation of an event bus
Optionally, run a development environment through a cloud provider
Guarantee consistently structured responses from your different API's
Configure and scale your services using Kubernetes Deployments
Limit access to your APIs using Google-JWT-based authentication
And much more!
