Description
Have you ever wondered how a backendAPIworks?

Or maybe thought about what operations are going under-the-hood of aREST API?

You are a beginner inREST API development worldor just switched toRustas abackend developer?

Then this course is absolutely foryou!

This course is totallybeginner friendly, so we will cover the basic concepts of REST APIs and databases as well. Here you can learn the basics of REST API development and learning about all the general concepts and solutions that an application like this would need.

You will be implementing a simple TODO REST API that uses a database (MySQL) as a persistence layer!

You will be learning a bit aboutPrometheusmetricsand how to add them to yourapplication!

You will be learning about how to add / writeOpenAPIspecification to your API and addSwagger UIto let your API users interact easily with your API.

We will cover slightly using Docker to setup locally a database as well!

By the end of the course, you will have a fully working REST API, that has a secure registration, login and authentication mechanism implemented with an exposed OpenAPI spec (not a full one, but there is an example for an endpoint).

I suggest to have a minimal basic Rust development knowledge in order to get started on this course, but it's not mandatory, you can catch up with Rust in the meantime as well.

Who this course is for:
- People whos are interested in learning about REST API development using databases
