Description

Backend API Development with MERN Stack – Build Real-World Projects

Are you ready to master backend development and build your own RESTful APIs from scratch? In this hands-on course, you’ll learn how to create powerful, production-ready APIs using the MERN stack (MongoDB, Express, React, Node.js) — one of the most in-demand tech stacks in today’s job market.

This course is perfect for developers, freelancers, and aspiring full-stack engineers who want to understand how backend systems work, build complete APIs that connect to any frontend (React, mobile apps, etc.), implement real-world features like authentication, file uploads, and email notifications, and deploy their backend applications to the cloud using modern tools and best practices.

What You’ll Build

You’ll work on real-world projects including a RESTful Job Portal API, a full authentication system using JWT, file upload and email notification features, and clean backend architecture following MVC principles. You will also learn to deploy your backend to Vercel and connect to MongoDB Atlas. As an extra, you’ll document your API using Postman.

What You’ll Learn

By the end of this course, you’ll be able to set up Node.js and Express from scratch, structure scalable backend projects, work with MongoDB using Mongoose, and handle CRUD operations with best practices. You'll also learn to secure your API through proper validations, centralized error handling, and implement essential features like authentication, file uploads, and email notifications. Finally, you’ll deploy your projects and connect them to a live database in production.

Whether you're aiming for a full-time development role, want to offer backend services as a freelancer, or build complete applications for your own startup, this course equips you with the practical skills and confidence to do so.
