Overview

This is an exciting opportunity to dive deep into creating a fully functional REST API using modern technologies like TypeScript and PostgreSQL. The workshop not only guides you through the theoretical aspects but also encourages practical application by allowing you to implement your creativity in building APIs for various use cases—be it a Weather API, a blogging platform, or a movie ticket booking system. The focus on clean code and structural organization sets a strong foundation for both learning and future projects.

The collaborative environment, including the use of Discord for discussions, ensures that you'll have support as you navigate through challenges. By the end of this workshop, you won’t just have theoretical knowledge; you will complete a unique project that showcases your ability to implement a robust backend system while adhering to best coding practices.

Fullstack

A fullstack boilerplate provides a starter application that includes both frontend and backend. It should include database, auth, payments, user roles and other backend services to build a fully featured saas or webapps.

typescript
Typescript

TypeScript is a superset of JavaScript, providing optional static typing, classes, interfaces, and other features that help developers write more maintainable and scalable code. TypeScript's static typing system can catch errors at compile-time, making it easier to build and maintain large applications.
