This course provides a solid JavaScript foundation that you can use to build sites and applications for the web. 

In this course you will learn to build a complete web application,  getting a solid understanding of the new concepts in ASP.NET Core 2.

The main idea of React is this; if we rerender instead of mutate when something changes, our components and application as a whole becomes much easier to construct and reason about. There is of course a performance penalty to this, but React mitigates that through an efficient diffing engine, resulting in only the necessary changes actually being made. 

Demand for data has never been higher. Keeping up with the business' needs has become increasingly difficult. Traditional ways of getting the business the data they need often has long planning cycles which make it difficult to adjust when the requirements or needs change. 

This course will give your ASP.NET MVC 5 development a solid start - in the right direction! It picks out and explains the things you need to know in order to use the framework effectively and develop testable solutions. While the course has a focus on practical skills, it also takes the time to explain important underlying concepts, including how HTTP works, the MVC design pattern, the TDD workflow and dependency inversion. 

What is Domain Driven Design (DDD) really about? How might Command Query Responsibility Segregation (CQRS) help us to build better software? Far from being esoteric concepts, they can be harnessed by everyday developers to create long-lasting, flexible solutions. 

If you’ve been at any conference or talk recently you’ve likely heard about microservices. In this course we will look at what microservices are and what advantages (and disadvantages) they offer. With microservices architects have the responsibility to break their monolithic application into a collection of smaller microservices. This gives the ability to easily scale different parts of an application dependent on system load, or to choose different technologies for different services. With this increase in freedom and functionality we also get increased responsibilities for testing, documentation, and security. We’ll dig into all of these areas and see practical solutions based on our experience.
