Week-by-Week Course Plan

Month 1: Foundation & Backend Development

Week 1: Advanced JavaScript & Node.js Fundamentals

Goal: Master modern JavaScript features and set up Node.js.

  • Block Scoping (let, const), Template Literals, Destructuring
  • Advanced Array Methods (map, filter, reduce, find)
  • Spread/Rest Operators, Optional Chaining (?.)
  • Introduction to Promises
  • Node.js Runtime Environment vs Browser
  • package.json: scripts, dependencies, devDependencies
  • Modules: require vs import
  • Build a simple file system server

Mini-Assignment:

Write a Node.js script that reads a JSON file and manipulates its data using array methods.

Week 2: Building Robust APIs with Express.js

Goal: Learn to build secure, well-structured REST APIs.

  • Initialize Express app
  • Routing (GET, POST, PUT, DELETE) & Route Parameters
  • Middleware (express.json(), custom logging & error handlers)
  • Organizing routes with Router
  • Handling CORS
  • Project structure: routes, models, controllers
  • API testing with Postman/Thunder Client

Mini-Assignment:

Build a REST API for a Blog with endpoints: GET all posts, GET single post, CREATE post.

Week 3: Databases with MongoDB & Mongoose

Goal: Connect API to MongoDB and define models.

  • NoSQL vs SQL concepts
  • MongoDB Atlas setup
  • CRUD operations in Atlas UI/Shell
  • Connecting Express.js to MongoDB (mongoose.connect)
  • Schemas & Models (types, validation, defaults)
  • Instance vs Static Methods
  • CRUD with Mongoose (find(), create(), findByIdAndUpdate())
  • Document population

Mini-Assignment:

Create a Post model with validation and integrate with Week 2 API.

Week 4: API Authentication & Security

Goal: Implement authentication & route protection.

  • Create User model
  • Hash passwords with bcrypt
  • /api/auth/register endpoint
  • JWT authentication flow
  • Verify passwords with bcrypt.compare
  • Generate JWT with jsonwebtoken
  • Middleware to protect routes

Mini-Assignment:

Add auth to your API. Only authenticated users can create posts.

Month 2: Frontend Development & Integration

Week 5: React Fundamentals & Components

Goal: Build reusable interfaces with React.

  • React basics: Components, JSX, Props
  • Project setup with Vite
  • Functional vs Class Components
  • useState for state management
  • Handling events (onClick, onChange, onSubmit)
  • Controlled inputs & forms
  • Rendering lists with map()

Mini-Assignment:

Build a React blog UI with posts (hardcoded state) + form to add posts.

Week 6: Connecting React to Backend

Goal: Fetch & manipulate API data in React.

  • useEffect for side effects
  • Fetching with fetch / axios
  • Display API data in UI
  • POST, PUT, DELETE requests
  • Optimistic updates vs re-fetch
  • Managing loading & error states

Mini-Assignment:

Connect your React blog to your API. Posts come from backend; form sends new post to API.

Week 7: Advanced React & Context API

Goal: Manage global state & frontend routing.

  • Solve prop drilling
  • Create & use Context
  • Manage auth or theme with Context
  • React Router setup (<BrowserRouter>, <Routes>, <Route>)
  • Navigation (useNavigate, useParams)

Mini-Assignment:

Add routes (Home, Blog, Login) and global auth state with Context.

Week 8: Deployment & Final Project

Goal: Deploy full MERN app.

  • Environment variables (React & Node.js)
  • Production build with Vite
  • Proxy/API configuration
  • Final testing & debugging
  • Backend → Render / Cyclic
  • Frontend → Netlify / Vercel
  • Connect deployed frontend & backend
  • Course wrap-up & next steps

Final Assignment:

Build & deploy a full-stack project (e.g., Task Manager, Product Catalog, Book Review Blog).

Requirements:

  • Backend: REST API (CRUD, JWT auth, security best practices)
  • Frontend: React SPA (routing, state management, API integration)
  • Deployment: Publicly accessible app
