In this course, learners progress through four structured modules designed to introduce the fundamentals of AI-powered back-end development using Node.js. Beginning with the setup of a Node.js development environment, learners will build server-side logic, work with databases, and create APIs that power modern web and mobile applications.
Throughout the course, learners will explore how AI tools and intelligent assistants can support code generation, debugging, problem-solving, and software development workflows. By combining technical foundations with emerging AI practices, learners will gain practical experience developing scalable back-end systems while preparing for future opportunities in software development.
