Learn Next, Node and Rust

In this course, Chris takes a README-driven approach to build out a Rust CLI that supports content authoring for a digital garden.

Specifically, you'll work through the first command for the CLI, writing files. You start by initializing a new Cargo binary crate through creating the `write` command that allows you to create files (and their contents) to the folder that you set. 

Step by step you'll learn about:
- Handling user input
- Error handling
- Rust Move semantics
- Rust Copy semantics
- Integration testing

...and more!

Rust is a systems programming language that runs blazingly fast, prevents segfaults, and guarantees thread safety.

### 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.

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

Blitz.js is a fullstack React framework built on top of Next.js inspired by Ruby and Rails.

It includes everything from the database to your frontend all inside a single app. Only one development server. Only one thing to deploy.

Instead of having an API Layer, it allows you to import server code into your frontend and call it like like a normal function.

You will have one thing to deploy to a server or serverless.

In this collection, you will learn how to get started with Blitz.js. After watching this collection you will be able to:

* Create a new Blitzjs Project
* Create Pages
* Work with the database in your app

Node.js is a platform built on Chrome's JavaScript runtime for easily building fast, scalable network applications. Node.js uses an event-driven, non-blocking I/O model that makes it lightweight and efficient, perfect for data-intensive real-time applications that run across distributed devices.

Getting Started with Blitz.js

As developers, we have a responsibility to protect the data our users trust us with. No one wants to wake up to the news that their site was hacked and all of the user accounts stolen.

Security is important, yet it is often overlooked and forgotten.

Part of the reason for this is that security seems hard to get right. This results in developers crossing their fingers and hoping for the best.

In this course, you'll learn how to protect your application by learning how to attack it.

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.

Rust is a modern language that is close to the metal. It's got the performance of C, but with a more friendly syntax and community.

It's also memory safe, and ensures your applications are bug free by catching errors at compile time instead of runtime.

These features make Rust a great choice for developing code for embedded systems, web servers, and CLI apps. You can even compile Rust into WebAssembly in order to run it in-browser!

But as the saying goes, "before you learn to run, you must learn to walk".

In this course, you will write your first Rust application.

Starting from “Hello World” you’ll quickly move on to learning about Rust’s types, configuration files, and the `cargo` package manager along with classics like functions, loops, and handling user input.

More Rust-specific concepts like macros and pattern matching will also be introduced.

[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!

Express is a well-known and supported framework for Node web applications. It provides a lot of excellent functionality to process requests, interact with other APIs, handle authentication and return appropriate requests for any client.

This collection will look at providing an API for a specific application but will explore concepts that will be helpful in building a wide variety of applications.

Building an API with Express

Learn how to build a simple REST API to store notes using the latest built-in node features including native ES modules, the fs/promises API, async/await, the nullish coalescing operator, and destructuring. No compilers, no build steps, pure code.

This collection of lessons is great for beginners to Express as long as they are familiar with JavaScript and the HTTP protocol. Those more familiar with node and express will appreciate a fast-paced, modern take on using these popular tools and will likely benefit most from the lessons on input validation, models (which emphasizes a lot of new syntax), using fs/promises to serialize a `Map`, and accessing asynchronous data with `async/await`.

Pre-requisites:

- [Install curl](https://curl.haxx.se/)
- [Install node 14](http://nodejs.org/)
- Be familiar with the terminal

View the source for this project in the [project's github repo](https://github.com/xjamundx/egghead-express).

**Notes**:

- I'm not very pedantic about REST and basically just mean an API over HTTP
- [Express 5](https://expressjs.com/en/guide/migrating-5.html) is still in alpha (and has been for over two years), but most of these lessons apply to Express 4 as long you use something like [express-async-errors](https://www.npmjs.com/package/express-async-errors) to add support for `async` routes and middleware

This playlist will be a smorgasbord of Auth0 authentication and authorization topics. Everything from adding Auth0 to various apps, customizing your Auth0 settings, adding specific rules / audiences / features, and debugging errors. 

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.

Auth0 Tips and Tricks 

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.

NextJS Fundamentals

This collection contains videos that explore the basic types in Rust, including **Fixed size Integer**, **Pointer sized Integer**, **Boolean**, **Strings**, **Characters**, **Arrays**, **Tuples** and more.

If you're just starting out learning Rust and [wrote your first program](https://egghead.io/courses/write-your-first-program-with-the-rust-language), this collection is the right place to get more familiar with the language!

Basic Types in Rust

Many languages work on a compilation story to WebAssembly, but Rust is already ready for primetime. Why?


- Rust is a stable language and great replacement for C and C++. 
- Due to the reference and borrowing concept, Rust doesn’t need a Garbage Collector and can be used for a production-ready WebAssembly project. 
- The Rust/Wasm team has built some sophisticated tooling for straightforward interoperability between Rust and JavaScript.

This course gives you the tools to compile to WebAssembly with Rust. Over 11 lessons, we’ll set up a project and explore various paths of communication and interoperability between Rust and JavaScript.

Using WebAssembly with Rust

While this course is for IBM Domino Developers who are looking to utilize Node.js alongside their applications, or Javascript developers looking to integrate with a Domino server. There are quite a few tips and tricks you can learn for integrating Node.js as a proxy server for any REST API you might want to communicate with your JavaScript Application.

We cover how you can continue to use cookies provided by IBM Domino for user authentication and authorization while accessing a Node.js / Express based application, including modifying the standard login form to expose authentication errors.  

We show how to store user level information inside a JWT giving the option to store functional levels of access safely.  This stateless token can then be decoded server side to list what user roles a user has and therefore can restrict functionality without having to refer back to Domino each time.

The course will demonstrate Create, Read, Update and Delete methods using the Domino Data Services all via the NodeJS application but still maintaining Domino security.

And finally, we show how you can reuse Domino generated HTML inside a handlebars template by scraping and manipulating the HTML.

Integrate IBM Domino with Node.js

The core of serverless architectures are auto-scaling systems and a pay-per-execution pricing. Two traits that allows developers to significantly reduce operational cost and complexity, by outsourcing infrastructure management to cloud providers and focus on building business logic.  

In this course we walk through the basics on how to create a serverless API. We start off creating a simple HTTP endpoint. Then we build the first two endpoints of a REST API for a simple Todo Application backend storing the data in DynamoDB. After watching this course you will be ready to get started building you first serverless backend.

Amazon Web Services (AWS) is a powerful expansive cloud infrastructure platform for building modern web applications.

AWS provides services for data, presentation, authentication, security, video encoding, and much more. Offering over 175 fully-featured services from data centers globally, AWS powers a large percentage of the internet.

JSON Web Token (JWT) is a low overhead option for authentication that is easy to implement and scales with your application. There is no need to store session data as everything you need is stored in an encoded string sent in the JWT, significantly reducing database overhead for your servers.

In this course, we will build a simple authentication server that will act as a token issuer, and we will use those tokens to access resources on an API.  Starting from scratch, you will learn how easy token based authentication can be and will understand how to use them on your APIs as well as on the front end of your web applications.

In this course the developer will learn how to create a LoopBack API and build it out to an API that can be used as a backend for apps. We will start by creating a basic LoopBack API project and gradually enhance it to a production ready API. The API we create defines a few models to persist the data and has custom functionality, validation and hooks added to those models. 

After our data structure is defined we will learn how to extend the functionality of LoopBack by using mixins and components. We will also lock our API down using ACL’s and create a mechanism to automatically define the admin and user roles and create our admin user.   

The last part of the course will show how how to filter the data stored in the API. We will make the API production-ready by adding unit tests, connecting it to MongoDB and we will show how to deploy the app to now.sh.   

LoopBack is a highly-extensible, open-source Node.js framework.

In this course we will take a simple Node.js app that connects to a MongoDB database and uses an Express web server, and learn how to setup a full software development deployment process as well as how to properly “Dockerize” the app. 

We’ll step through setting up proper version control techniques, managing configuring within the environment, setting up proper build/deploy/run processes, and all with abiding by Docker best practices. We’ll also make sure our deployment is setup for scale, and have consistent development practices in place for reliable app deployments.

Docker containers wrap a piece of software in a complete filesystem that contains everything needed to run: code, runtime, system tools, system libraries – anything that can be installed on a server. This guarantees that the software will always run the same, regardless of its environment.

In this course we’ll learn how to create Twitter bots. We’ll first learn how to interface with the Twitter API using Twit.js, which allows us to post statuses, search tweets, and interact with followers. We’ll create several example bots that show the diversity of possibilities, using powerful tools such as RiTa.js, Google’s Cloud Vision API, and Tracery. We’ll learn how to tweet data from Google Spreadsheets, and to compose and tweet a song for an audio bot. We’ll also learn how to host our bot logic on Heroku and Docker.
