Nice overview of what Astro can do.
Towards the end, I was wondering what was (not) type safe, like data from the API routes, and the open graph stuff, and whether it could be made more typesafe.
I've already recommended this to some developer friends. One just finished his blog.
Having individual branches on GitHub for lessons is so valuable.
It helped catch some small errors and typos, as well as being able to see the changes over time.
Lazar and other members of his discord server (Creatures.dev) have been awesome supports!
Very good introduction to full stack building using Astro for first time users
Great production. Very clean instruction. Thanks:)
This is the one-stop-shop introduction to Astro that I needed. Lazar did a great job introducing the basic concepts of Astro in part 1 of the course and followed it up with a really cool example of what's possible with Astro in part 2
Become familiar with the Workers CLI wrangler
that we will use to bootstrap our Worker project. From there you'll understand how a Worker receives and returns requests/Responses. We will also build this serverless function locally for development and deploy it to a custom domain.
This is a practical project based look at building a working e-commerce store using modern tools and APIs. Excellent for a weekend side-project for your developer project portfolio
git is a critical component in the modern web developers tool box. This course is a solid introduction and goes beyond the basics with some more advanced git commands you are sure to find useful.
