Full-Stack Web Developer with Ruby on Rails

A full-stack programmer is a person who is comfortable working with all the technologies required to get an idea to a finished product. This includes both “front-end” user interface and “back-end” development. The front-end web developer content introduces you to front-end, or client-side, web development technologies, including JavaScript, HTML, CSS, and jQuery. You will learn how to make interactive applications that run inside a web browser and can communicate with a web server running remotely. You will also learn how to use the version control program Git and collaboration website GitHub. Once complete, you will have the basic skills necessary to work as a front-end web developer.

The Ruby on Rails developer course portion introduces you to building dynamic, database-backed web applications with the popular Rails web framework. You will receive hands-on experience planning, designing, coding, securing, testing, and deploying dynamic web applications. You will also learn how to use Rails-flavored Ruby language features, Git, Heroku, and other valuable web development tools. Once complete, you will have the basic skills necessary to work as a web application developer with Rails.
