Node.js backend developer

Move from modules and HTTP into Express and Nest service boundaries.

Your goal

Build a bounded and validated API with stable pagination and failure tests.

Use each checkpoint as evidence: solve an exercise without the solution open, explain its edge cases, and revisit a failed concept the next day. Course completion records practice; it is not an accredited qualification.
