Learning Outcomes
The student gains competence to develop modern web based user interface library (e.g. React) using strongly typed programming language (TypeScript). The main focus during the course is to understand the structure and main characteristics of the strongly typed language. This way the students learns how to develop applications for easy maintenance and improved performance.
The student also leans how to utilize various existing back end architectures (REST, GraphQL, SparQL or Solid). The
student gains understanding about the difference of synchronous and asynchronous functions while communicating between the components or the back end. The student can use in the future the modern functions and libraries to manipulate functions, objects and arrays (spread, rest, array functions, export/import, class, destructuring). Also the student gets familiar utilizing open source libraries (MUI, Apollo, Solid React). The student also knows the main user authentication and authorization methods (OpenID, IDP, OAuth, OAuth2, SSO, Shibboleth, LDAP). Student will be able to use various third party authentication methods (Google, Facebook, Linkedin Azure AD). Also the student knows how to debug and find errors and performance bottle necks in source code.
Student's Workload
