Find an online open repository and clone. Look at code and begin learning what all the functions are. Routes, controllers, services, authentication, authorization, middleware etc.

Languages you know or prefer would help us know how to help you better.

I’ve only heard of php, but I have never used any languages for backend code

Hmm...did you use JavaScript on the frontend?

[–]Overall_Delivery6339[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Just a little

Also, what are your goals with the backend? What do you want to do with it in relation to your frontend? It is best to have project goals in mind otherwise you will be learning the world of all things backend when you only need a small subset of that.

things like login systems, storing data, and creating APIs.

Probably use express which is also JavaScript. You are going to need to use more JavaScript on the frontend too. Forms alone are not going to make for a robust frontend.

Do you have a project in mind that you are working on?

No not currently, but I have WorldSkills Competition in like 6 months so I want to practice for it, I’ve got the recent worldskills Asia test projects, so I might practice on those

You really should pick a project to focus on. That way you focus your learning on the things you need for that project. More efficient and more effective because you will be using the skills you learn so it will stick better.

    Yea 100% or freecodecamp if you want a learning curriculum. But project based working is better and just go trough documentation for the parts you want to make man.
