Overview
FARM (FastAPI, React, and MongoDB) is similar to MERN, but performs faster with Python and FastAPI replacing Node.js and Express as the backend. FastAPI is a high-performance Python web framework used by top companies, such as Microsoft, Uber, and Netflix. React is an open source front-end JavaScript library, while MongoDB is a fully scalable NoSQL database.
This instructor-led, live training (online or onsite) is aimed at developers who wish to use the FARM (FastAPI, React, and MongoDB) stack to build dynamic, high-performance, and scalable web applications.
By the end of this training, participants will be able to:
- Set up the necessary development environment that integrates FastAPI, React, and MongoDB.
- Understand the key concepts, features, and benefits of the FARM stack.
- Learn how to build REST APIs with FastAPI.
- Learn how to design interactive applications with React.
- Develop, test, and deploy applications (front end and back end) using the FARM stack.
Format of the Course
- Interactive lecture and discussion.
- Lots of exercises and practice.
- Hands-on implementation in a live-lab environment.
Course Customization Options
