Content

Web technologies are now commonly used to create full applications for traditional desktop, web and mobile devices. Web technologies provide better cross platform support and a more streamlined and consistent application development process. The full web technologies stack includes frontend, backend server, service APIs and databases. Full stack web development involves the use of a full suite of technologies to build the application frontend, backend and supporting infrastructure. A full stack web developer will use contemporary web development tools and frameworks, version control, and modern deployment approaches to create effective and impressive applications. This unit focuses on the frontend part of the full stack development process by using web technologies for programming frontend interfaces, interact with services and databases to create applications that support a wide variety of device capabilities.
