🔍 What You'll Learn:

Understanding Backend Development Concepts: Students will gain a thorough understanding of key backend development concepts, including how databases interact with servers, the workings of the Model-View-Controller (MVC) architecture, and the importance of various backend components such as validation layers, controllers, routes, services, models, and repositories.

Project-Based Learning Approach: By following the development of the "Shop Cart" e-commerce backend project, students will learn how theoretical concepts apply in a real-world scenario, enhancing their ability to connect abstract knowledge with practical implementation.

Setting Up a Development Environment: Viewers will learn step-by-step how to set up a basic npm project, including the installation and configuration of essential tools and packages like Express and nodemon, which are crucial for creating a dynamic and responsive backend.

Version Control and Code Organization: The video teaches best practices for using .gitignore to maintain a clean repository on GitHub, organizing code in a structured manner within a source folder, and setting up a README.md for effective documentation and setup instructions, which are essential skills for any developer.

Security and Configuration Best Practices: Students will understand the importance of using environment variables for sensitive information to prevent exposing critical data, such as server ports or API keys, on public repositories. Additionally, the creation and usage of a sample .env file are explained, showcasing how to securely manage and share project configurations without compromising security.
