Learn Ember, 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

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

Ember is a javascript framework that provides a rich set of tools for building modern web applications. Unlike many frameworks, Ember comes with opinions and a way of doing things so you aren't left with a ton of decisions to make about problems that have already been solved very well. Ember was designed from the start to deliver a productive and comfortable experience for you, the developer.

In this course you will learn what you need to know to get started building your own Ember we applications. From the absolute essentials like creating a new project with the Ember-CLI tools, templating, routing, and reusable components.

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.

If you’re interested in the Postgres client that is used in this course you can [download it here](https://macpostgresclient.com/?source=brett) to check it out and follow along.

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

Supabase is an open-source tool for rapidly building application backends with real-time data and authentication. In this course, you'll learn the fundamentals of Supabase. You'll learn how to model complex data using PostgreSQL and SQL, build authentication flows with Oauth, and add real-time data to a Next.js application to build a fully-featured chat application, similar to Discord.

The chat app will have different "channels," which will be powered by data inside of Supabase. Users can visit these channels and write messages, which will be sent in real-time to other current users of the platform.

After this course, you will be able to model real-world scenarios in actual relational databases, understand how to manage real-time data, and leverage key functionality provided by Supabase, such as authentication, instant APIs, and real-time subscriptions.

Supabase is an open source Firebase alternative. A service to:

- Listen to database changes.
- Query your tables, including filtering, pagination, and deeply nested relationships (like GraphQL).
- Create, update, and delete rows.
- Manage your users and their permissions.
- Interact with your database using a simple UI.

Supabase is not a 1-to-1 mapping of Firebase. Most notably, Supabase uses Postgres rather than a NoSQL store.

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.

Components in Ember are great for reusing code throughout our application. We’ll see how each instance of an Ember component has isolated state and we can over ride as well as set default values.

In this lesson, we will learn how to make a simple, reusable component within an Ember application.

Create Simple Components in Ember

In this lesson, we learn how to create nested routes and templates in an Ember.js application, in addition to how to create nested routes and isolated templates.

Creating nested routes in Ember.js

In this lesson, we will learn how templates work within Ember and how to use HTMLBars. This lesson will cover the connection between controllers and templates and how to use actions within templates as well.

Ember Templating with HTMLBars

In this lesson, we will learn how to install Ember Inspector and use it to see the state of our application and debug it.

The Ember Inspector can be installed from the [Chrome Web Store](https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/ember-inspector/bmdblncegkenkacieihfhpjfppoconhi). We will see how the inspector gives us access to information such as the routes available to us, the components used in a particular view, and data that is exposed to us etc.


Debug Ember Applications using Ember Inspector

What if you want aggregations that aren’t running totals? What if you want the sum total for the whole frame? Or the minimum value across the frame? Unbounded preceding, unbounded following, and current row help you define your frame of reference.

Understand Frame Clauses

We have all this data, but how do we answer questions about it? In this lesson we’ll learn how to filter down to just the information we’re looking for.

Filter Data in a Postgres Table with Query Statements

If you have a list of competitors in a race, and a list of their finishing times, how do you create a list of what place they came in? Rank and dense rank can help you out; they differ in how they handle ties.

Rank Records with Rank and Dense Rank

What if your foreign keys are more complex than a single field? Postgres lets you enforce foreign key constraints across multiple fields with a similar syntax to defining complex primary keys.


Create Foreign Keys Across Multiple Fields in Postgres

In Ember.js, functions that are executed through user interaction with your application are called actions, which can be defined at the route, controller, or component level. In this tutorial, we look at a simple example of defining actions on the controller and hooking it up to our template in order to update properties on the controller.

Add user interaction to Ember.js apps using actions

We will learn how to install Ember-CLI and use it to create a new Ember project. We will also learn how to run the Ember project.

How many users visited our site yesterday? We can find out by looking at each visit, and limiting this list to a distinct list of users (who may have visited many times). In this lesson we’ll learn how to answer questions like these with the distinct keyword.

Select Distinct Data in Postgres

Learn how to insert one record, two records, a million records! We’ll also explore some edge cases, like where not all data is known at the time of insertion.
