Backend refers to the server side of development. Here, the primary focus is on how a website works. Node.js is considered efficient for the development of backend applications as it brings event-driven programming and enables development of fast and efficient web servers in JavaScript. Developers can create scalable servers by using a simplified model of event-driven programming that uses call-backs to signal completion of a task.

If you are a beginner and want to get your hands on Restful Apis, swagger doc, express and such related areas, this course will be a huge help. Recommended!

It was my first course in the Coursera and I have very good feel after finish it thank you :)
HU
The course is hands-on. The instructor provides a number of coding exercises that allow you to practice what you have learned.

Would be better had he recorded it while he was coding
WR
Very well organized and to the point course. Equally helpfull for newbies in javascript and mid level people.
AO
Great! From the very basics to good understanind of the logic behing APIs in Express.
DA
Good enough but, the voice speed is too fast for me

The course outline is good. As for an improvement I suggest if could provide the code folder for the learn and repeat modules will be a helpful

Course had material that was not well documented and confusing. Very hard to understand and took a lot of extra steps just to figure out how to write a few lines of code the way they would accept it. (Example 1: Calories in a calorie tracker project were defined as being (x) calories/1 hour, but the project inputted (x) calories/30 mins.) (Example 2: Area calculator project defined a square with a width and height of 5 and checked for the answer of 20. {5X5 DOES NOT EQUAL 20.}) Overall the course honestly seemed like it was quickly made to be an easy cash grab for its price. Not worth it.
Practice excercises were confusing and not clear about the desired task to be achieved.
Most of the quizzes have several typos.
grade tests of first week are ambiguos and a waste of time. I need to practice my JS skill and not my problem statement understanding
There is no reading material only videos which are short, to the point. It was difficult to finish this course, because I had no prior knowledge about this. So, I had to read a lot of material in order to understand.
Enunciados dos problemas mal escritos e mal formulados, fórum abandonado, perguntas nove meses sem respostas, não perca o seu tempo.
programming assignments are at the peak of absurdity. I hope production level programming isnt even 1% of what this mess is :(
Lots of mistakes, and very confusing assignments.
There is no any support for learners .... in the assignment section everyone is facing the same problem but there's no any response which is very annoying. I decided to unenroll the course.
Don't waist you time with this unless you want to watch the videos. The course has a number of problems regarding grading and the author is unresponsive.
The worst course on this universe.
The assignments descriptions are so much ambiguous. Theory part is okay but code explanation is not good
I have never seen assignments written so poorly during my time learning on Coursera. Instead of focusing on learning the material, I find myself spending extra time trying to submit nonsensical assignments. You're better off learning Node.js elsewhere unless you enjoy wasting precious time trying to decipher the flawed logic.
Garbage. Errors in test cases in assignments. Poor instructions. Lame content.
Very nice course...assignments are really tough which is good
I am an experienced developer and wanted to get back a bit to the basics as I started my career in programming just from practicing and missed a lot of essential theory. So my opinion is that the video content is pretty good and beneficial, but the assignments aren't clear and sometimes the tests are incorrect. This can lead to extreme confusion for beginners.
If you work a bit on enhancing the quality of the assignments that would be a great + and then the course will be 5 stars
Bad ui
I am super happy that I have completed this course. I have enjoyed it a lot. This course is really awesome because it gives you knowledge about the JavaScript from basic to advance level by going deep in the concepts. I am lucky and grateful that I have completed the course. Thank you.

Must to do course for beginner to intermediate level hands on training with so many exercises and assignments.
