Course Introduction

From the beginning you will pair program with the instructor, walking through the design philosophies and guidelines used to engineer the code. With each new feature, you will learn more about the transition from programming to engineering and the points of refactoring required to write production-level applications.

The class goes beyond just the use of the http package and focuses on building CRUD based services with logging, observability, and debugging. You’ll also learn about POD architectures, Docker and cloud deployment.
