Overview
The
goal of the Full Stack Web
Developer Nanodegree program is to
equip learners with the unique skills
they need to build database-backed
APIs and web applications. A graduate
of this program will be able to:
• Design
and build a database for a
software application.
• Create and deploy a database-backed
web API (Application Programming
Interface).
• Secure and manage user
authentication and access control for
an application backend.
• Deploy a Flask-based web application
to
the cloud using Docker and
Kubernetes.
This program includes 4 courses and
5 projects. Each project you build
will be an
opportunity to apply what
you’ve learned in the lessons and
demonstrate that you have gained
practical full-stack development skills.
