Node.js provides more freedom compared to traditional enterprise ecosystems.

Although some individuals are attempting to transform Node.js into a framework-heavy enterprise platform, there is an alternative approach.

In this course we will learn how to build highly composable, type-safe and testable systems without a typical enterprise framework magic. If you have an aversion to magic or wish to unlearn years of practices such as using:

  • Dependency Injection containers
  • Class-based programming
  • ORMs
  • Technology-driven architectures
  • Magical conventions
  • @Transactional dandruff
  • new Date() spread all over the place
  • Handwritten DTOs
  • Import mocking frameworks
  • Reflection and metaprogramming magic

This course is for you. The alternative to heavy enterprise frameworks is not Wild Wild West or building a custom framework. The real alternative is to embrace the true nature of JS/TS , make full use of the good parts and never get prisoned in another heavy framework again.

What will I learn?

  • Compose your building blocks with multiple composition roots and manual dependency injection
  • Make full use of extremly composable functions instead of less composable classes
  • Write type-safe DB access code that stays in sync with DB schemas and prevents you from mistakes
  • Parse don’t validate your input and output data to be liberal in what you accept and strict in what you produce
  • Organise your code around features, not technology layers
  • Handle DB transactions without magic
  • Program in a language, not in a framework
  • Test with high ROI with smart testing strategies
  • Make code testable and don’t let more than one invocation of new Date() sneak into your code
  • Start your app in full in-memory mode by default
  • Separate write model and read model
  • Master transferrable skills that will outlive your enterprise framework du jour
