About the direction

What happens on the server: how APIs are designed, how data is stored, how an application is secured and how it holds up under load. We build a real service with a database, authentication and documentation.

  • Design and build REST APIs
  • Work with a relational database and queries
  • Implement authentication and data protection
  • Understand server application architecture
  • Deploy a service and keep an eye on it
