Express Service Foundations

Shape HTTP handlers, middleware stacks, and error envelopes for maintainable Node services.

You move from ad-hoc scripts to a service skeleton with clear boundaries. Weekly mentor reviews target naming, layering, and how errors surface to API clients—not framework trivia.

Duration: 5 weeks

Tuition (informational): 4,900,000 VND

FAQ — including what we skip

Do you cover GraphQL?

No. This cohort focuses on REST-shaped handlers so juniors solidify HTTP semantics first.

Is cloud hosting included?

You receive deployment notes, but cloud spend and accounts are not included in tuition.

What if I miss a live session?

Recordings land within 48 hours; you still submit the weekly exercise for written feedback.
