The Web Developer Bootcamp
https://www.udemy.com/course/the-web-developer-bootcamp/ ↗I'm a senior software engineer who has worked in Big Tech. I got this DM asking, how do you get good at system design? Here's the step-by-step guide on how you can crush your system design interviews. Number one, you need to understand how to create a basic crud application. Crud application is a web app where you create data, read it, update it, and destroy it. You should also understand like basic rest APIs. If you don't understand you rest API, you're not going to understand how to build YouTube from scratch, right? If you don't already know how to create a basic crud application, take this course on Udemy. Buy it in Ihoodle mode, it'll be like $13 and make sure it's by Colt Steel. There are probably other courses, but I've never taken them so I can't vouch for them. Also, I'd recommend you take React the complete guide because in the real world, you're never using HTML, CSS and JavaScript. You're almost always using react. Once you understand how to create a basic crud application, then you're going to try to build some real world substantial project. The real world project should include things like authentication, payments, via stripe, it should be a distributed system, right? Like you should have a database somewhere, you should have your server somewhere, they should be horizontally scalable. And I recommend you do this because once you build it, you understand some of the tradeoffs that you would only ever learn in a YouTube video. Like you understand why you can't store a JWT in the memory because only one of the machine has the JWT. Then you start to reach for tools that can fix. You start to naturally reach for something like Redis. Finally, go to Cloud and ask it what are the top 10 system design questions for a big tech. Go to YouTube and watch every single video on this list, especially things like YouTube and Netflix because these things are not in by doing all these things you will crush the system design interview. Good luck.
