Opleiding: DEVNOJS Node.js Software Development Active Learning (English)

Volg de Node.js Software Development Training. Node.js is een open source framework dat op verschillende platformen runt, zoals Windows, Linux, Unix, Mac OS X etc. Het is gebouwd op Chrome’s JavaScript runtime voor het makkelijk bouwen van snelle en schaalbare netwerkapplicaties.

Na afronding van deze training kun je onder andere:

• Node.js installeren en configureren met behulp van platform installation packages en source code
• Node.js packages managen met de Node Package Manager
• Node.js modules gebruiken en creëren

Deze training bevat Engelstalig lesmateriaal en wordt gegeven door een Nederlandssprekende docent (indien gewenst ook mogelijk in het Engels).

Deze Node.js training introduceert Node.js als een platform. Node.js is een open source framework dat op verschillende platformen runt, zoals Windows, Linux, Unix, Mac OS X etc. Het is gebouwd op Chrome’s JavaScript runtime voor het makkelijk bouwen van snelle en schaalbare netwerkapplicaties. Node.js gebruikt JavaScript op de server. Node.js bied een rijke bibliotheek van verschillende JavaScript modules die de ontwikkeling van web applicaties simplificeert.

Na afronding van de training kun je:

• Uitleggen wat Node.js is en hoe je het het beste kunt gebruiken.
• Node.js installeren en configureren met behulp van platform installation packages en source code.
• Node.js packages managen met de Node Package Manager.
• Node.js modules gebruiken en creëren.
• Een web applicatie configureren en beveiligen.
• File en stream resources gebruiken met Node.js.
• Gebruikelijke Node.js programmeer patronen begrijpen.
• Performance issues ontdekken met Node.js.
• Node.js problemen troubleshooten.

Lesmethode

Bij Master IT train je met onze unieke lesmethode Active Learning, hiermee leer je aantoonbaar effectiever!

Wij zjn er namelijk van overtuigd dat je slimmer en met meer plezier leert als je actief met je lesstof omgaat. Onze klassen zijn gevuld met maximaal 8 cursisten.
