Learn Android, Postgres and Svelte

You've got some practice with using SQL to select, update, and join database tables.

But perhaps you've found yourself with a sneaking suspicion that you could be more efficient with your PostgreSQL.

Does your query seem slow?

A lesson on how to profile queries will point you in the direction of a fix.

Are you performing multi-step operations one at a time that are susceptible to errors?

The "all or nothing" transaction is the cure.

These are just a couple of examples of the techniques, tips, and tricks that Tyler Clark has learned in his years of experience working on large scale production applications.

Other topics in this course include working with CSV files, different techniques for aggregating & filtering, and more!

Watch Tyler's course, and continue your journey toward SQL mastery.

Advanced SQL for Professional Developers

JavaScript community has been shaken recently by a release of Svelte 3 and for a good reason - it's a completely different approach than React or Vue. To quote the docs:

"[Svelte](https://svelte.dev/) is a radical new approach to building user interfaces. Whereas traditional frameworks like React and Vue do the bulk of their work in the browser, Svelte shifts that work into a compile step that happens when you build your app."

**The best part?** If you have 26 spare minutes you can learn the basics of Svelte 3 and start building your own apps with it!

Enjoy!



The magical disappearing UI framework

 - The web's JavaScript bloat crisis, solved. Svelte turns your templates into tiny, framework-less vanilla JavaScript.
 - Simple and familiar. Build apps out of composable, easy-to-write blocks using languages you already know.
 - Super fast, rock solid. Compile-time static analysis ensures the browser does no more work than it needs to.

Most applications rely on databases to store data. Understanding how to create a database and communicate with it unlocks a critical power in your web development career. 

In this course, Tyler presents all the building blocks of creating and interacting with a PostgreSQL database. From creating a brand new table, up through organizing and aggregating data across multiple tables, you will learn the fundamental skills of SQL — and you’ll be prepared to apply them right away.

After completing this course, you’ll be ready to tackle more challenging SQL topics like proper data modeling, normalizing data, and exploring different database types.

SQL Fundamentals

A lot of the time, web apps are built primarily with the desktop layout in consideration, and the mobile layout suffers as a result. In this course we are going to discuss using features of user interface which are optimised for mobile devices.

We are going to discuss CSS features that make a big difference and build entire components that work great on mobile devices and browsers. We are going to take into account browser support to ensure our users are getting the experience we want them to.

More and more of our users depend on their mobile device to use our web apps. With this in mind, we are going to look at how to optimise the components we build for smaller viewports, and how to ensure our customer gets an optimised version of our web app for their device.

We are going to discuss different ways we can view, test, and debug our web app in a mobile setting so that we know what we are seeing is what our user is seeing, because sometimes a desktop browser emulating a mobile device just isn’t enough.


HTML 5 is the structure of our web pages. It is the markup that represents the DOM (document object model).

Optimize User Experience for Mobile Devices and Browsers

You know the basics of Postgres, but most meaningful queries will require you to combine tables in novel ways to ask questions you couldn't ask with a single table alone. Joins and unions come up over and over again in interview questions -- because of how fundamental they are. This course will make you a master of your tables, and give you the power to answer questions you couldn't before. 

Understand Joins and Unions in Postgres

In this course we will show you how to wield the power behind the elusive window function. Which five movies were the highest grossing each year? Who are the highest performers in each department relative to their peers? These questions ask us to partition records into subgroups and answer questions about those groups -- that’s the power of a window function. 

Many programmers will reach for their favorite scripting language to solve problems like these, but window functions allow you to answer them with the speed and efficiency of the Postgres query planner.

Plus, with the power to further slice and dice this derivative information, there’s no limit to the questions you can answer with raw SQL.

Using Postgres Window Functions

It’s amazing how much you can accomplish with a basic knowledge of SQL. In this course we’ll learn how to store lots of information (many millions of things!) and answer nearly any question we might have about that information (on the order of milliseconds!) 

We’ll learn enough to make you say you “know SQL” -- table creation, inserts, selects, updates, deletes, aggregations, indexes, joins, and constraints. Along the way we’ll model real world problems so that you can see just how powerful SQL will make you!

Get Started With PostgreSQL

Creating forms is one of the simplest and most complicated things at the same time. A basic form consists of many different things happening, we have to retain the value, we have to keep watch of validation and we have to show error messages when something is invalid, this is on both the fields and on the entire form itself if we send a request off to the backend service.

So we're going to create a form using just the normal svelte features. Then we'll look into creating a form using the svelte forms lib.

Open source framework for building truly native mobile apps with Angular, TypeScript or JavaScript.

We will learn how to add an Android library to our project and translate it’s Java api to NativeScript. For this lesson, we will look at [Filestack’s Android SDK](https://github.com/filestack/filepicker-android) built with Gradle. Specifically, we will cover how to immediately start working with the library even when a [NativeScript](/q/nativescript) plugin does not exist for it.

Progressive Web Apps can speed up app loading times, and even allow you to run your web app offline, and install it on a mobile device!  However, setting up a PWA correctly can be tricky.

In this course, we'll create a PWA from start to finish, using create-react-app.  We'll create a custom service worker, and use different caching strategies for different types of assets.

Finally, we'll look at how to install the app on both iOS and Android devices, and how to customize the app name, icon, and splash screen.

Creating tables is actually quite simple. However before we go creating tables we need to first understand the data we want to store. To make sure our data scales appropriately we need to break down the data into its smallest form so we can easily add data and read from it.

Create a Table with SQL Create

Tables in databases are not worth much value if they do not actually hold data. In this lesson we will use the insert statement to add rows of data to our table. We'll break down each component of the statement and review what is required for a successful insert. 


Add Data to a Table with SQL Insert

Databases are not really good for anything if we are not able to get the data out. By using the select statement, we can pull out all of the data within our database table. Let's work with different queries that pulls out all of our columns, just some of the columns, and even filters out duplicate column values.
