| DevOps Fundamentals For Developers | This DevOps Fundamentals course is designed to give web developers an understanding of how to deploy their applications in the real-world. It will give participants an understanding of how to provision an VPS (Virtual Private Server) from a cloud provider. It will cover logging into the VPS and give a thorough coverage of working on the linux command line. Participants will install software, configure a web application, open the appropriate ports, and configure the application to run as a service. A domain will be registered and SSL certificates will be issued from LetsEncrypt. Nginx will be utilised to serve HTML content and to act as a reverse proxy to run multiple sites on a single machine.
The course will cover different ways of deploying a finished application, how to externalise configuration items, monitoring log files and continuous integration through the use of GitHub Actions. The course is hands-on with each participant enabled to configure their own server from scratch and set up continuous integration from a GitHib repository. |
| Modern Mobile Web Development | This course is aimed at web developers who would like to write applications targeting mobile devices without having to go the route of developing native applications for those devices. Any web developer has the background knowledge to create a mobile application using one of two techniques.
The first technique is creating a Progressive Web Application(PWA). PWAs are web applications that load like regular web pages or websites but can offer the user functionality such as full screen mode, install on desktop, working offline, push notifications and device hardware access traditionally available only to native applications. The second technique is to use a library like React Native or Native Script. Both of these libraries are capable of taking an application developed using component techniques from React and Angular and compiling those applications to native applications. The beauty of using these technologies is that with some limitations you can have a single code base to create both Android and iPhone apps. This course will take experienced web developers and give them experience developing for mobile devices using both of these techniques. |
| Modern Web Development | The web landscape changes weekly. If you are a web developer then it is an almost impossible task to keep up to date with changes in the language syntax, tools, frameworks and related tools. Frameworks come and go at an alarming rate and it can be risky to adopt new technologies before they are mature.
This is a hands on course that will create real web applications / sites and deploy them using a free hosting service. It will also create - as an exercise - a progressive web application and an introductory mobile application using React Native. |
| Practical React | Following on from the React Developer course this takes a deeper dive into the core features of React, React Router and React Query by exploring more practical real-world examples.
This course will give developers who are familiar with React the knowledge they need to deliver real-world React applications. |
| React Developer | React is a JavaScript library for building user interfaces. It was originated by Facebook and is maintained by a a community of individual developers and companies. React can be used as a base in the development of component based web sites and single-page applications.
React depends on plugins and libraries for certain features that are a core part of other frameworks. This course will cover plugins for routing (React Router), ajax calls (React Query) and state management (Redux) as well as the core React functionality. This course will highlight the current features in React and highlight the things that have changed. React has evolved quite considerably over the years and some tutorials that you can find on the internet are out of date even if they are only a few years old. |
