Backend Developer with Go

Welcome to Udacity. Takes 5 minutes to get familiar with Udacity courses and gain some tips to succeed in courses.

You are starting a challenging but rewarding journey! Take 5 minutes to read how to get help with projects and content.

Learn to set up Postgres with Go, write basic SQL, connect using `pgx`, and run queries efficiently focusing on performance, error handling, and best practices.

Learn to define GORM models, perform CRUD, build complex queries, and manage transactions and errors when using GORM with Go and Postgres.

Use tools like golang-migrate or goose to write, apply, and manage schema migrations with versioning, rollbacks, and best practices for safe environment changes.

Build and test a RESTful CRUD API in Go using GORM and Postgres. Handle HTTP requests, structure endpoints, manage JSON, and ensure robust error handling, testing, and performance.

Learn API design principles focusing on RESTful services, efficient endpoint design, CRUD operations, and GORM integration in Go for backend development.

Master building high-performance APIs with Go, focusing on Gin framework setup, RESTful endpoints, database integration, middleware, concurrency, and advanced optimization techniques.

Master API scaling in Go: pagination, filtering, sorting, rate limiting, load balancing, caching, and Redis integration for high-performance API design.

Learn to enhance API performance in Go by profiling, benchmarking, using pprof, optimizing code, and documenting APIs for high scalability and reliability.

Master authentication in Go: explore auth vs. authorization, session and token methods, JWTs, secure user flows, and best practices for robust, scalable API security.

Learn how to design, implement, and enforce Role-Based Access Control (RBAC) in Go APIs for scalable, maintainable, and secure authorization using roles, permissions, and middleware.

Learn to implement Attribute-Based Access Control (ABAC) for fine-grained, dynamic permissions based on user, resource, and context, complementing RBAC for secure, scalable applications.

Learn to secure APIs by defending against threats, using secure coding, logging, rate limiting, and testing to protect users, data, and infrastructure from real-world attacks.
