Learn Web Development in Berlin

In just 50 hours, our platform’s prep materials will guide you through the fundamentals of programming with HTML, CSS and JavaScript. Set up your web development environment on your computer, and learn to easily communicate with our expert teacher’s assistants via email or Slack. Once you’ve finished the prework you will have:

1. developed the skills to fully take advantage of your bootcamp

2. been introduced to the Ironhack Berlin community and team and

3. constructed an optimized mindset.

Then you’ll be perfectly prepared to thrive in our fast-paced Berlin campus!

In the first two weeks of Module 1 at Ironhack Berlin, you will learn the foundations of web development, though JavaScript will be your primary focus above all else.

Topics include:

- HTML and CSS basics.

- Responsive web design using Flexbox and Bootstrap and JS basics.

- Core concepts of object-oriented programming, DOM manipulation and version control.

The third week in Berlin will be devoted to your first project: coding a game of your choosing with JavaScript. Recreate your favorite childhood game, or develop your own original one – it’s up to you!

In your fourth and fifth weeks at Ironhack Berlin, Module 2 will send you diving into the back-end to become a Full-Stack MERN developer. Learn how to create a server and discover the intricacies of data modeling.

Topics include:

- NodeJS

- ExpressJS

- Handlebars

- MongoDB, a non-relational database

- Mongoose, an object data modeling library that provides a rigorous modeling environment for your data.

The Module 2 project begins in Week 6. You will combine all of the technologies you’ve learned here in Berlin to create a Full-Stack web application. In order to make the process more fun and practical, you will complete the project in pairs, as tech companies commonly utilize pair programming.

The final module will crack open the Front-end in weeks 7 and 8. You will begin to master technologies that are relied upon by the biggest tech companies in Berlin and around the world.

Topics include:

- ReactJS, one of the most widely used Front-end frameworks.

- Single Page Apps (SPA)

- Component-based frameworks

And finally, in week 9, crystalize everything you’ve learned with the final project of the bootcamp: create a Full-Stack application incorporating your Back-end knowledge, and on the Front-end create a SPA by utilizing ReactJS. Companies know that Full-Stack applications are just what the world needs today, so building your own will give you a head start when job-hunting.
