React: Zero to Full-Stack (Training)

Dev colleagues, the React: Zero to Full-Stack program equips you to become a full-stack developer with the React and MERN stacks. The program includes over 28 hours of instruction.  The four skill-based training modules cover: 1) Learn JavaScript - gives first-time JavaScript users what they need to become successful developers. Shaun Wassell offers a modern, full-fledged introduction to JavaScript. In particular, the viewer learns the modern syntax of JavaScript: ES6. Shaun delivers step-by-step guidance that takes the learner from the basic syntax and concepts of JavaScript, all the way through the more advanced concepts that are covered in technical interviews, 2) Learn React for Modern Web Applications - foundation in creating modern web applications using the latest version of React. React enables developers to create beautiful, performant, easily maintainable websites incredibly quickly. React is currently the most popular JavaScript framework on the market and is used by a majority of companies, yet it has one of the largest gaps between the number of employers who want it and the number of developers who know it. In short, 33% of employers need React skills, but only 19% of developers say they know React, 3) Node.js Essentials - write performant back-end applications in JavaScript by leveraging the Node.js runtime which enables JavaScript to be run outside the browser, JavaScript developers can write web servers, server-side scripts, and any number of other useful back-end programs, and 4) Full-Stack React - fundamentals of full-stack development with the MERN (MongoDB Express, React, and Node.js) stack. For the full stack, developers need to make sure both the front and back end communicate well together. Toward that end, this video teaches you how everything works, what the key responsibilities of each component are, and how they flow together, then the key points for developers.
