Taming the Backend: Architecting Scalable APIs with Express.js and MongoDB Mastery

To build modern and scalable applications, it's essential to create well-structured and manageable APIs. In this event, you’ll learn how to develop RESTful APIs using Express.js and MongoDB. From designing your database structure to implementing CRUD (Create, Read, Update, Delete) operations, this session will guide you through building robust and production-ready backend services. You'll also explore best practices for organizing your code to keep it clean, modular, and easy to maintain.

Event Highlights:

Presentations: Dive into the fundamentals of Express.js and MongoDB, learn how they work together to create scalable APIs, and explore real-world use cases of RESTful services in modern applications.

Interactive Discussions: Share your experiences with backend development, explore common API design challenges, and discuss how Express.js and MongoDB can address them effectively.

Live Q&A: Ask questions to backend professionals, gain insights into structuring large-scale applications, and discover tips to improve API performance and maintainability.

Hands-On Workshop: Participate in a guided session where you’ll build a RESTful API from scratch—design a MongoDB schema, implement endpoints using Express.js, and perform CRUD operations with real data.

Community Engagement: Connect with fellow developers, exchange ideas, and find inspiration to take your backend development skills to the next level. This is also a great chance to form new collaborations or project teams.
