Prototyping using JavaScript and Bootstrap

JavaScript is a programming language designed for manipulating a web page. Bootstrap is the most popular HTML, CSS, and JS framework for developing responsive, mobile first projects on the web.

Day 1: Frontend with JavaScript and Bootstrap

• Take a detailed look at HTML/CSS/JavaScript and the Bootstrap framework from Twitter.
• Create small applications that run all in the browser without any backend code.

Day 2: Backend with node.js and MongoDB

• Write a full featured web applications where multiple users can communicate and store state using a backend system. One way to do that with JavaScript is to use MongoDB and node.js.
• Cover the REST pattern and implement and test simple REST components in JavaScript with node.js using the MongoDB database system as storage.

Day 3: Example

• On day 3, we would put everything together and implement a real application in a workshop fashion, also looking into more topics around a full example:
  • github + git,
  • docker for building and shipping of code,
  • amazon ec2 for hosting.
