<br>The classes are divided into three parts:
<br>
<br>First, we give a primer to web fundamentals such as HTTP, HTML, CSS, and ja<x>vasc<x>ript. We 
<br>cover different programming paradigms, including the OOP and functional programming. 
<br>Handy tools such as Git are covered to get students familiar with the project-ba<x>sed and team-
<br>ba<x>sed development. 
<br>
<br>In the second part, we introduce modern web development techniques such as responsive 
<br>design, Bootstrap, ES6/7, React, and Redux. 
<br>
<br>Last, we extend our horizon to the backend and mobile development landscapes by 
<br>introducing the Node.js, PostgreSQL databa<x>se system, Amazon Web Services (AWS), and 
<br>React Native. We also give case studies on how to leverage Machine Learning algorithms to 
<br>convert raw user data into the AI.
