Node.js Development program

The Node.js Development program at NexRise Skills is a hands-on and industry-focused training designed to prepare learners for backend and full-stack development using Node.js, one of the most powerful JavaScript runtime environments in modern web application development. This course equips you with the skills to build fast, scalable, and high-performance server-side applications using JavaScript, expanding your capabilities beyond front-end coding into real-world backend development.

Through comprehensive instruction and project-based exercises, you’ll gain a solid understanding of how Node.js works, from its asynchronous, event-driven architecture to building RESTful APIs, handling databases, and deploying applications. You’ll also work with popular tools and frameworks that are widely used in the industry, enabling you to build professional backend solutions with confidence.

Why Node.js Matters

Node.js has revolutionised how developers build server-side applications by enabling JavaScript to run outside the browser — on the server. Its event-driven, non-blocking I/O architecture makes it ideal for real-time applications, API services, data-intensive systems, and scalable backends. Companies across the globe — from startups to large enterprises — rely on Node.js for:

What You’ll Learn

The Node.js Development Course at NexRise Skills is structured to take you from fundamentals to advanced techniques through hands-on experience:

Technologies Covered

JavaScript Refresher & Fundamentals

Before diving into Node.js, you’ll reinforce key JavaScript concepts — variables, functions, asynchronous programming, closures, callbacks, and promises — that form the foundation of backend development.

Introduction to Node.js

Understand what Node.js is, how it differs from traditional backend frameworks, and why its architecture excels in handling asynchronous operations and scalable workloads.

Working with Node Modules & NPM

Learn how to use Node’s built-in modules, install third-party packages via npm, and organise modular code for reusability and maintainability.

Building RESTful APIs

Master the principles of REST and create robust APIs using Node.js and Express.js — including routing, middleware, request/response handling, error management, and JSON data processing.

Database Integration

Explore how Node.js interacts with databases like MongoDB, MySQL, or PostgreSQL — including CRUD operations, schema design, and data modelling.

Authentication & Security

Learn how to implement secure user authentication and authorization using JWT (JSON Web Tokens), session management, password hashing, and role-based access control.

Real-Time Applications

Build real-time features using WebSockets and libraries like Socket.io — perfect for chat systems, live notifications, multiplayer platforms, and collaborative tools.

Testing & Debugging

Understand how to test Node.js applications using frameworks like Mocha, Chai, and Jest, and learn effective debugging techniques to ensure application quality.
