Add Conversation Intelligence to your video or voice application without training Machine Learning models. Integrate speech to text and all of the below capabilities, out of the box:

- Speaker Diarization
- Sentiment Analysis
- Contextual Insights
- Conversational Analytics
- Topics of Discussion
- Entity and Intent Recognition
- Pre-built UI and Symbl JS Elements

In this course we will use [Symbl.ai](https://symbl.ai/) to get transcripts for the video we will upload as well as more meaningful insights. 

Additionally, you will pick up NextJS for the main stack and will use Symbl's RESTful APIs for processing a conversation from a video and rendering transcripts to screen. Get your Symbl account [here](https://platform.symbl.ai/) and start building.

React is one of the web’s most popular frameworks for building JavaScript applications. 

If you know what you’re doing, React can drastically simplify how you build, use, and maintain code.

Whether you’re a React newbie or you’re ready for advanced techniques, you can level-up with egghead. Explore our in-depth courses, lessons, and community resources to build more powerful applications and crack open your career.

### Accept payments & sell products powered by Stripe and the best of the JAMStack

There are as many ways to build an e-commerce store on the internet as there are products to sell. One thing is for certain, e-commerce is here to stay and as professional developers we need to understand how to build fully custom stores for our clients using the best modern tools available.

- React: flexible and customizable while following modern best practices
- Next.js: lightening fast with guide rails to help your project perform as consumers expect
- Stripe Checkout: lets you offload reams of complicated business logic to a trusted third party that maintains regulatory compliance, global payments, and a standard UX.

Your store will have well managed local component state using React Hooks and you'll also have clear and cohesive shared (global) state with React Context.

Finally you'll deploy your custom store to Vercel (the platform behind Next.js) as well as how to make your Next.js e-commerce store portable to deploy to other platforms.

Optional chaining ?. in javascript is a new feature introduced in ES2020. Optional chaining changes the way properties are accessed from deeply nested objects. It fixes the problem of having to do multiple null checks when accessing long chain of object properties in javascript.

JavaScript® (often shortened to JS) is a lightweight, interpreted, object-oriented language with first-class functions, most known as the scripting language for Web pages, but used in many non-browser environments as well such as node.js or Apache CouchDB. It is a prototype-based, multi-paradigm scripting language that is dynamic, and supports object-oriented, imperative, and functional programming styles.

Databases are essential for any full-stack applications, but working with them is traditionally very difficult. Prisma is here to change that. It's a powerful database toolkit that helps us think in data itself - not SQL, not classes, just the data we care about in our apps.

In this series, we will learn how to leverage the power of Prisma to automatically generate a type-safe, autocomplete-ready, and efficient query builder, all based on a simple and easy-to-read schema. We will integrate all this good stuff into a Next.js project to complete a simple social network app.

In the end, you will be able to understand how Prisma works, and confidently start using Prisma in your own project.

Prisma is an open-source database toolkit. It replaces traditional ORMs and makes database access easy with an auto-generated query builder for TypeScript & Node.js.

[Next.js](https://nextjs.org/) is a fantastic framework that allows us to build performant server-side rendered React apps with ease.

In this series, we will learn how to utilize the powerful features of Next.js 9, like API routes and Static Site Generation (SSG), to build full-stack React apps. We will use [Auth0](https://auth0.com) to handle user authentication and authorization, and we'll also learn how to integrate the excellent [Chakra UI](https://chakra-ui.com/) component library into our Next.js project to make it a breeze to build beautiful and modularized user interfaces. Finally, we will import and deploy our project from GitHub to [Vercel](https://vercel.com), the deployment platform built by the creators of Next.js.

This collection will still be continuously updated with new and more advanced content. Subscribe to the RSS feed to get notified of the latest lessons!

Introduction to Next.js 9

With the release of `Next.js` v9+, we've been handed the tools to create full-stack react apps with ease. 

This collection will dive into the fundamentals of API & Dynamic routing, handling data from local json and a DB, plus deployment options. 

This collection will be an ongoing collection, where I continue adding more videos over time 😃

Next.js is a minimalistic framework for server-rendered React applications.

Chrome DevTools are incredibly useful for a frontend developer, sometimes we spend more time using them than our text editor of choice.

That's why it's so important to understand this tool better - those quick lessons will teach you things that will help you to become a more effective developer.

You will learn how to:

- **Use (experimental) CSS Overview to learn all about CSS used on a page in a minute**
- **Style console.log messages with CSS** - a _crucial_ skill for any senior developer (j/k)
- **Debug your code (on production and local environment) with logpoints**
- **Run a Lighthouse audit of your site**
- **Choose accessible colors for your website that have an AAA contrast ratio rating**
- **Force a DOM element state in Chrome DevTools**
- **Use Console utilities to make debugging easier**
- **Copy a network request as fetch or cURL with Chrome DevTools**

Have fun!

The Chrome Developer Tools (DevTools for short), are a set of web authoring and debugging tools built into Google Chrome.

Chrome DevTools tips & tricks

In this course we’ll take a deep look at the Elements panel in the chrome devtools. We’ll step through each button and tab on this panel and discuss how to use them to interact with your web application as it runs.

This course examines the Sources panel in the Chrome DevTools, which allows you to see what files are responsible for the various things on the screen. Bundled into this panel, though, is the single most useful tool for any JavaScript developer - the JavaScript Debugger. We’ll use the Debugger to inspect JavaScript as it runs, allowing you to watch (and even interact with) the state of your application as it runs in ways that’ll blow your mind if you’ve mostly used console.log to debug your applications to this point. 

Debug JavaScript in Chrome with DevTool Sources

This course will examine the Network panel in Chrome DevTools. We’ll step through the request log, examining the various properties exposed. We’ll talk about timing, filtering, throttling and generally using the network panel to better understand the ways in which our applications exist within a connected context.

The axe browser extension (for Chrome and Firefox) is an immensely helpful tool for auditing web pages for accessibility defects.  This extension is powered by the same rules engine developed by Deque Labs in their axe-core open source library which also powers the react-axe development tool.  Each reported defect offers a ton of information about the defect, why it's a problem, severity level, groups impacted and ways to fix the defect.  This can be a great resource for learning more about how to write accessible code.

It's very important to experience our web applications using the tools and techniques that our users are using. Many of our users out there may have vision impairments and may use tools to help them see better. Learn how to use a High Contrast browser extension to see your web application the way many of your users may be seeing it.  You may discover that a lack of contrast between foreground and background colors will cause things to be hard to see or even invisible in certain High Contrast tool settings.

We can find issues with heading levels by utilizing our accessibility auditing tools.  The library react-axe, as well as the browser extension axe, will report any findings concerning heading levels.  The browser extension tota11y will annotate all heading levels on a page and show any in red that have issues.  Finally, we can check the Rotor in VoiceOver in Safari.  The Rotor should have a Headings menu and will list in order all of them that are found on the page.  If headings are missing or inappropriate this will help us find them as well.
