HTML(Hypertext Markup Language)
 HTML (HyperText Markup Language) is the standard language for creating web
pages. It defines the structure of a web page and is the foundation of web
development.
CSS (Cascading Style Sheets)
 CSS (Cascading Style Sheets) is a stylesheet language used to control the
appearance and layout of web pages. It works alongside HTML to enhance
visual presentation and user experience.

JavaScript Basics
 JavaScript (JS) is a versatile and dynamic programming language used to add
interactivity and functionality to web pages. It works seamlessly with HTML
and CSS, forming the "front-end trifecta" of web development.
Introduction of Backend Web Development With Node.JS
 Backend web development is the backbone of modern web
applications, managing server-side logic, database interactions,
and client-server communication. It ensures that data flows
seamlessly between users and the application, providing the
functionality that users rely on. Among various tools and
technologies for backend development, Node.js has emerged as a
standout solution for building efficient and scalable server-side
applications.
What is Backend Web Development
Backend development focuses on creating and managing the
infrastructure that supports the user-facing side of a web
application. It involves:
•Servers: Hosting the application and processing requests.
•Databases: Storing, retrieving, and managing data.
•APIs: Enabling communication between the server and
client-side applications.
•Business Logic: Implementing rules and operations that
govern how the application works.
Why Node.js for Backend Development
Node.js is a runtime environment built on Chrome's V8 JavaScript engine. It
allows developers to use JavaScript—a language traditionally limited to frontend
development—for backend processes, creating a unified development
environment. Some key reasons to use Node.js include:
•Asynchronous and Event-Driven Architecture: Handles multiple requests
simultaneously without blocking operations, making it ideal for real-time and
high-performance applications.
•Fast Execution: Built on the V8 engine, Node.js executes JavaScript quickly and
efficiently.
•Extensive Ecosystem: The Node Package Manager (NPM) provides access to
thousands of open-source libraries for rapid development.
•Scalability: Its non-blocking I/O model supports applications requiring high
concurrency.
Why Choose Node.js for Backend Development
 Advantages:
• Single programming language for both frontend and backend
(JavaScript).
• Rich ecosystem with NPM (Node Package Manager).
• High performance for I/O-intensive tasks.
• Scalability with asynchronous operations.
Setting Up a Node.js Environment
 Steps :
• Install Node . Js (via official website or package manager).
• Use npm to manage packages.
• Install an editor like visual Studio Code.

 Hello World Example :


const http = require('http');
const server = http.createServer((req, res) => {
res.writeHead(200, {'Content-Type': 'text/plain'});
res.end('Hello World!');
});
server.listen(3000, () => console.log('Server running on port 3000'));
Core Modules in Node.js
 Commonly Used Modules :
• http – Create server and handle request.
• fs – Work with the filesystem.
• path – Handle file and directory paths.
• os – Get system information.
• events – Create and handle events.
Express.js Framework
 What is Express.js
• Lightweight framwork for Node.js.
• Simplifies server creation and routing.

 Basic Example:
const express = require('express');
const app = express();
app.get('/', (req, res) => {
res.send('Welcome to Node.js Backend!');
});
app.listen(3000, () => console.log('Server running on port 3000'));
Database Integration
 Popular Databases:
• MongoDB (NoSQL) – via Mongoose.
• MySQL/PostgreSQL(SQL) – via Sequelize/Knex.

 Example with MongoDB


const mongoose = require('mongoose');
mongoose.connect('mongodb://localhost:27017/mydb', {
useNewUrlParser: true, useUnifiedTopology: true });
const User = mongoose.model('User', { name: String, email: String });
const user = new User({ name: 'John', email: 'john@example.com' });
user.save().then(() => console.log('User saved!'));
Building APIs
 RESTful APIs:
• CRUD operations : Create, Read, Update, Delete.
• Example : GET /users, POST /users, PUT /users/ : id, DELETE /users/ : id.

 Example Route:
app.get('/users', (req, res) => {
res.json([{ id: 1, name: 'Alice' }, { id: 2, name: 'Bob' }]);
});
Middleware in Node.js
What is Middleware
• Functions that executive during the request – response cycle

 Examples:
• Body – parser for parsing request bodies.
• Custom logging middleware.
Best Practices

• Use environment variables for configuration.


• Validate and sanitize user input.
• Optimize database queries.
• Implement proper error handling and logging.
• Ensure security (e.g., use HTTPS, handle CORS).
