Tutorials:
Laboratory project: programming of distributed full stack web application, divided into individual phases (static pages, client-side code, server-side code, services). The students will develop the projects that will be introduced with the final presentation.
Course is carried out on study programme
1st Cycle Interdisciplinary Academic Study Programme in Multimedia
Objectives and competences
The main course objective is to introduce the students of computer and information science the technologies, connected with the full stack development of web applications (on the server and the client-side). The students shall be equipped with knowledge to independently develop such applications.
The competences that students gain are:
- knowledge of static technologies HTML, CSS, XML,
- knowledge of JavaScript programming language for client-side development
- knowledge of Node.js technology (JavaScript proramming languae) for server-side development,
- knowledge of MongoDB NoSQL database
- web service development,
- employment of the model-view-controller architecture,
- consideration of security principles.
Learning and teaching methods
Lectures with practical examples/demonstrations, making of laboratory project (guided by the assistant).
Intended learning outcomes
After the completion of the course a student will be able to:
- understand the most common technologies for web application development,
- understand and employ MVC architectural style in web application development,
- use REST to access database,
- develop full stack application on the client and server side
- use online sources and documentation in web application development,
- transform server-based application to single-page-application by analytical approach,
- use version control system and support tools for collaboration in teams,
- use ICT, written reports and communication and organization skills in team collaboration.
