This is my guide for web-app backend development, based on selected courses from:
- the Meta Back-End Developer Professional Certificate specialization on Coursera
- and the Backend Developer with Python nanodegree on Udacity.
From these specializations, I have selected the following topics/courses:
- Introduction to Back-End Development
- Introduction to Databases for Back-End Development
- Django Web Framework
- APIs
- The Full Stack
- SQL & Python Data Modeling for the Web
- Software Architecture Patterns
- Identity and Access Management
Strong Python and Git/Version Control skills are required for these courses.
Each of the topics/courses has its own sub-folder with the relevant materials, including notes, setup information, code snippets, and exercises.
