Advanced JavaScript and Full-Stack Integration

This capstone unit consolidates advanced JavaScript language features, modern module and class patterns, front-end component architectures (React, Vue, Svelte), and Node.js back-end capabilities (streams, files, Express, Mongoose). Students will integrate debugging, testing, and deployment-ready patterns to build modular, maintainable full-stack applications.

Learning Objectives

• Analyze and diagnose Node.js applications using the REPL, debugger, stream chaining, buffer iteration, and file/directory APIs to identify and resolve runtime and I/O issues.
• Apply modern JavaScript modularity and object-oriented patterns—including prototypes, constructors, base and derived classes, static and dynamic imports—to create reusable, testable modules.
• Demonstrate the ability to implement full-stack features by serving views with Express, designing Mongoose schemas, and implementing secure user registration workflows.
• Evaluate and implement component-based front-end architectures across React, Vue, and Svelte by managing lifecycle hooks, state/watch patterns, slots/composition, list rendering, and component styling for maintainability and reuse.
