Three tracks. One standard of engineering.

Frontend Engineering — 16 weeks, 120 live hours

• Weeks 1–2 · Markup and layout that holds up. Semantic HTML, document outline, forms and validation, CSS box model, Flexbox, Grid, responsive breakpoints, custom properties, and an accessibility pass with a screen reader.
• Weeks 3–4 · Tailwind CSS and design systems. Utility-first styling, configuration and theming, component extraction, dark mode, and rebuilding an existing design to pixel accuracy from a Figma file.
• Weeks 5–7 · JavaScript, properly. Scope and closures, the event loop, promises and async/await, array and object transformation, modules, fetch and error handling, DOM events, and debugging in browser dev tools.
• Weeks 8–9 · TypeScript. Types, interfaces, unions and narrowing, generics, utility types, strict mode, and typing third-party API responses without resorting to any.
• Weeks 10–13 · React. Components and props, hooks in depth, controlled forms, routing, data fetching and caching, global state, memoisation and render profiling, error boundaries, testing with React Testing Library.
• Week 14 · Next.js. App Router, server and client components, server actions, data loading patterns, image and font optimisation, SEO metadata, and deployment.
• Week 15 · Angular in contrast. Modules, components, dependency injection, RxJS observables and reactive forms, taught so you can read and maintain an Angular codebase and pass interviews that ask for it.
• Week 16 · React Native and shipping. One cross-platform mobile build, navigation, native storage, plus performance budgets, Lighthouse audits and a portfolio review.

Backend Engineering — 18 weeks, 140 live hours

• Weeks 1–3 · C# and object-oriented design. Types and collections, classes and interfaces, LINQ, exception handling, async/await, dependency injection, and the SOLID principles applied to code you have already written.
• Weeks 4–6 · Relational databases and SQL. Normalisation, keys and relationships, joins, aggregation, transactions and isolation, stored procedures, execution plans, and indexing a slow query until it is fast.
• Weeks 7–9 · ASP.NET Core Web API. Controllers and minimal APIs, model binding and validation, Entity Framework Core, migrations, repository and service layering, global error handling, and API versioning.
• Weeks 10–11 · Node.js and Express. The event loop and non-blocking IO, middleware pipelines, routing, file uploads, streaming responses, and building the same API twice so the patterns become visible.
• Week 12 · MongoDB. Document modelling, embedding versus referencing, the aggregation pipeline, indexes, and when a document store is the wrong answer.
• Weeks 13–14 · Security and API hardening. Password hashing, JWT access and refresh tokens, role and policy-based authorisation, CORS, input sanitisation, the OWASP Top Ten, rate limiting and secrets management.
• Weeks 15–16 · Scale and reliability. Redis caching, background jobs and queues, pagination strategies, structured logging, health checks, and load-testing your own endpoints.
• Weeks 17–18 · Testing and delivery. Unit tests with xUnit and Jest, integration tests against a real database, Docker images and compose files, GitHub Actions pipelines, and deploying to Azure or AWS.

Full-Stack Engineering — 28 weeks, 240 live hours

• Weeks 1–13 · Frontend core. The full frontend syllabus above, compressed only where it overlaps with later backend work.
• Weeks 14–22 · Backend core. C#, ASP.NET Core, Node.js, SQL, MongoDB, authentication, caching and testing, taught against APIs your own interfaces will consume.
• Weeks 23–24 · Integration and delivery. End-to-end authentication flows, file storage, payment gateway integration, environment configuration, Docker Compose for the whole stack, and CI/CD pipelines with automated deploys.
• Weeks 25–28 · Capstone and interview preparation. One product taken from schema to public URL, with a documented architecture, tests and monitoring, running alongside data-structures drills, system-design walkthroughs and six recorded mock interviews.
