GraphQL is a query language for your API, and a server-side runtime for executing queries by using a type system you define for your data. GraphQL isn't tied to any specific database or storage engine and is instead backed by your existing code and data.

What is Apollo ?

Apollo is the industry-standard GraphQL implementation, providing the data graph layer that connects modern apps to the cloud. Apollo will handle data fetching, caching and state management of out the box!

What is Next.js ?

Next.js is React framework that provides infrastructure and simple development experience  for server side rendered(SSR) application.

  • An intuitive page-based routing system (with support for dynamic routes)

  • Pre-rendering, both static generation (SSG) and server-side rendering (SSR) are supported on a per-page basis

What are we going to build ?

We will work mainly on portfolios features. You will learn how to manage data on the client and the server with Apollo and Graphql. Data will be stored in Mongo Atlas Database to which we will be communicating through the Node JS Server. We will create a functionality to create a portfolio and I will explain you how to easily manage forms. Then we will take a look on an update functionality where I will show you how to populate inputs with existing data. After that will work on a delete functionality. All of the features will be reactive and updating view in real time. You will learn the basics of data fetching and data mutations with Apollo.

Another big feature we will be working on will be session based authentication. We will prepare login and register forms. Users will be able to register, login and experience features only for authenticated users. You will learn how to manage sessions, how to protect the pages, and manage an authentication state through your application.

Forum feature will be the biggest one. You are going to learn how to create fully working forum consisting of topics and posts. We will integrate a component that will be used for topic and posts creation. Users will be able to create various topics, posts and also replies to other posts, all updated in real time and also across the browsers. After that you will learn how to create a fully working pagination!

Later in the course we will create features to get randomised data for home page and I will talk about re-usability. We will finish CV page and we will get into deploying. After all production improvements will be applied we will deploy our application to heroku so anyone on internet can access our portfolio.

Requirements:
  • Basics of React Framework!
  • Fundamentals in HTML and CSS, but isn't must have
Who this course is for:
  • Starting as well as experienced developers interested in Next JS, GraphQL, Apollo
  • This course is for everyone eager to create apps with modern tech stack

About the Author: Udemy

Udemy thumbnail

Udemy is the largest open marketplace for online courses on the internet. Founded in 2010 by Eren Bali, Oktay Caglar, and Gagan Biyani and headquartered in San Francisco, the company went public on the Nasdaq in 2021 under the ticker UDMY. The platform hosts well over two hundred thousand courses across software development, IT and cloud, data science, design, business, marketing, and creative skills, taught by tens of thousands of independent instructors. Roughly seventy million learners use it worldwide, and the corporate arm — Udemy Business — supplies a curated subset of that catalog to enterprise customers.

Because Udemy is a marketplace rather than a single editorial publisher, the catalog is uneven by design. The strongest material lives in the long-form, project-based courses authored by working engineers — full-stack JavaScript, React, Node.js, Python data science, AWS, Docker and Kubernetes, mobile development with Flutter and React Native, and cloud certification preparation. The CourseFlix listing under this source is the slice of that catalog that has been mirrored here for offline-friendly viewing, organized by topic and updated as new releases land. Pricing on Udemy itself swings dramatically with the site's near-permanent sales, which is why the platform is best treated as a deep reference catalog: pick instructors with strong reviews and a track record of updating their material rather than buying on the headline price alone.
