In this video you, will learn to build a full stack web application and deploy it to Render, a hosting service. This means your application can be used from anywhere with an internet connection!

Our tech stack for this project will consist of MongoDB for the database, Express.js as the web server framework, React on the frontend, and Node.js as the server environment (MERN).

We'll be using Visual Studio Code, MongoDB Compass, and Postman to help us build the application. And we'll learn how to set up a backend API including routes, controllers, and middleware, as well as a frontend, where we will get practice creating custom hooks, global state using the React Context API, and much more.
