Course Overview
Build a functional MERN Project with Docker,React and ReduxToolkit,NGINX,Express and more.....
Hi, welcome to this course on building a functional fullstack MERN app, that can be used for generating invoices, quotations and receipts.
We shall build this app, step by step, by leveraging tools and technologies such as Docker, NGINX, NGINX Proxy manager, Makefiles,Portainer, shell scripts, MongoDB, Express, ReduxToolkit and Redux Toolkit query, also called RTK-Query.
You will also learn how to serve your application on a custom domain name, and serve it securely over HTTPS with SSL Certificates from letsencrypt.
This course is NOT for absolute beginners. It is aimed at those with at least 1 year of relevant Fullstack Javascript experience. Having prior exposure to the MERN Stack will be advantageous.
This app was built by one person(myself), so of course, none of us is perfect. You might discover bugs here and there , or see ways of improving the codebase. Kindly, if you are able to fix any bugs you come across,or see ways of improving the codebase, please raise a PR on the repo.
I will review and merge in the changes for the benefit of all the other learners of this course.
Who am I? I am Alpha Ogilo, a self-taught full-stack software developer, currently working as a Senior Software Engineering Manager.
My Hope is that you shall gain immense value from this.
