Do you want to become a backend developer or full stack developer using Node JS – which is one of the most in-demand skills in 2025? Then you are at the Right Place.

So whether you’re a complete beginner to NodeJs or already know some basic concepts of JavaScript then this course will help you go from absolute zero to building fast, scalable backend application using Node.js, Express, MongoDB, JWT, Socket IO and much more.

What you will Learn from this Course?

By the end of this course, you will be able to:

• Understand how Node.js works under the hood
• Learn Core concepts of Node.js like modules, built-in modules
• Build powerful REST APIs using Express
• Connect and query MongoDB database with Mongoose
• Handle user authentication using JWT tokens
• OAuth features like Sign-in with google & Facebook
• Reset Password by sending emails using Amazon SES
• Integrate payment gateways (like Paypal & Razorpay both)
• Create real-time features using Socket IO (one to one chat, group chat)
• Deploy your node apps to Render

Now you might ask, Which applications you will create during this course?

Throughout the course, you will build exciting real-world project backend such as:

• Todo App Backend – For learning basics of Express & CRUD operations of MongoDB
• E-commerce Backend – Add signup/login with JWT and hashing, Add payment integration and order flow [Advanced]
• Social Media Backend – Reset Password, Followers & Following, Real-Time Chatting using WebSockets [Advanced]
• Some Small Demo Backend – For learning express, mongoDB & mongoose

Unlike many courses that only cover theory or basic CRUD apps, this course focuses on project-based learning, real-world scenarios and modern tools.

You will build backend apps that include:

• REST APIs used in real-world
• Express and mongoDB
• JWT-based authentication systems
• Payment gateway integration (Paypal,  Razorpay)
• Real-time chatting features using Socket IO

All concepts is explained in simple and easy language. So it will help you even if you are complete beginner.

Also I want to specify, we are not going to create frontend in this course. Because it is not the scope of this course. But I will give you some frontend ready code for testing authentication, payment and chat features.
