- [Shaun] Well, that is about it for the course.
And we've covered quite a few topics, haven't we?
We started off by creating a front end using Vue
and a back end using Node.js, Express, and MongoDB.
And we then saw how to bring the front end
and back end together using the Axios library
to make network requests.
And finally, we saw how to move the entire application
that we created to the cloud using Heroku
so that users would be able
to actually access our application.
Now, I want to reiterate that all of this work
that we've just completed is a pretty impressive undertaking
and it's something that most web developers
don't know how to do, so you should be very proud
of yourself if you've followed along with all the steps
and understand all of the concepts that we've covered here
since that will put you very far ahead
of the vast majority of web developers.
So now that you've got
all this full-stack development knowledge,
you might be wondering where to go next.
Well, there are several things that I would recommend.
First and foremost, I'd recommend that you use everything
that you've learned here to build your own site.
Not only will this allow you to apply
your knowledge to solve your own problems,
but whatever you build will be a great portfolio piece
for potential employers if you're looking
for a full-stack development job.
Never underestimate the power of being able to walk
into a job interview with a real full-stack site
that you've built that your interviewers can visit.
And besides building your own applications,
there are also several other courses in the library
that would compliment this one nicely.
In particular, if you're interested
in seeing how to build a similar
full-stack web application,
but using a different tech stack,
be sure to check out my courses
on building a full-stack application with React
and building a full-stack application with Angular.
Those might be fantastic next steps
for you to expand your full-stack development skills.
Well, thank you so much for watching,
and if you want to connect with me,
please, don't hesitate to get in touch with me on LinkedIn.
I'm on LinkedIn quite often
and would love to hear any questions or comments from you,
or if you just want to say hi, that's okay too.
Thanks again and I hope that you enjoyed the course.
