Explore what React, Node, Python, Django, TypeScript, Webpack, and
Docker have to offer individually, and how they all fit together in
modern app development. This updated version will show you how to build
apps with React, Node.js or Django, and TypeScript, and how Webpack can
be used to optimize and organize your code for deployment.
You'll begin by building a solid foundation of knowledge and quickly
expand it by constructing three different real-world apps. These aren't
just simple, contrived examples but real apps that you can choose to
install on your servers and use for real. You'll also understand how
Docker can be used to run the apps you build in a clear and well-defined
way, all of which will be able to springboard you into creating more
advanced apps on your own.
You'll see why React is one of the most popular web development tools
available today, and why Node.js is also frequently used for server-side
development. The fact that both utilize JavaScript is a big selling
point, but there are shortcomings. Modern Full-Stack Development
highlights how adding Django, Webpack, and Docker to the mix resolves
any issues by creating a potent full development stack on which to build
applications - two possible stacks, really!!
What You'll Learn:
- Review the basics of TypeScript and writing both React and Node apps
with it
- Construct a project with NPM and Webpack, configuration and usage
- Utilize client-side and server-side development
- Employ REST APIs and database usage across two tech stacks, Node and
Python/Django
- Deploy apps using Docker
