It's time to build something bigger. In this course, you will use the Django web framework to build, secure and administer a web server. You will have the opportunity to create, design and configure a web app using the Django framework in-line with best practices. Explore the usage of models in Django and their relationship to databases. Use views to render requested data to meaningful template structures for a composed user interface (UI). Implement proactive security practices and mitigate common security risks. B​y the end of the course you will be able to: • Design a Django web application using Python, HTML and CSS. • Describe and implement the HTTP request response cycle by creting views, routes and templates. • Describe and build a data model to create database tabless and dynamic web forms. • Explore the Django Template Language to create dyanamic webpages that display data stored in a database. • Create, share and test your web application by using industry standard best practice and guidelines. To succeed in this course, you are required to have a fundamental knowledge of the following: HTML and CSS Python MySQL You also require basic internet navigation skills and an eagerness to get started with coding in Django!

In this 1.5-hour long project-based course I will show you the basic concepts to create data visualizations in D3.js. You will learn how to use SVGs, select, and bind data in order to create a  bar chart. We will be visualizing firecracker injuries in 2019. This data is from the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC) Fireworks Annual Report. Inspired by recent events this summer we are going to visualize firework injuries in the United States.  Firework injury data can be found at U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC) .

In this project you will create a one page website for a small/medium business without any need of coding using Carrd.co online editor. You will learn the strategy to create a one page website, edit text and images, style containers and build the layout, include buttons and calls to action, and an interactive quote generation form.

By the end of this project, you will be able to apply user centered design principles to design an iPhone application flow with custom wireframes with the goal of creating a seamless User Experience (UX). To design an iPhone application flow, you will gain hands-on experience applying design thinking, user interface knowledge, and context from each step of the customer journey in the Miro online visual collaboration platform for teamwork. Note: This course works best for learners who are based in the North America region. We’re currently working on providing the same experience in other regions.

This second course in the XR for Everybody specialization looks at how to design new user experiences for XR technologies. The course provides learners with a design thinking mindset and equips them with a fundamental toolbox for creating XR applications using rapid prototyping. It starts with a broad overview of the complete XR design process, discussing different paths to becoming an XR creator, what is generally involved in making XR experiences, and how to best get started. The course then emphasizes design thinking, critiques, and ethics while introducing guidelines and user-centered techniques like design jams. The second half of the course introduces a variety of methods and tools for prototyping both physically and digitally including on the XR devices themselves through immersive authoring. The course has an honors track that guides learners through creating their own storyboard, physical prototype, and digital prototype of an XR experience. You will work on exercises that allow you to practice your design skills and also build XR technologies into your workflow by working with specific templates and new digital tools that allow you to preview physical prototypes on AR/VR devices.

This MOOC – a joint initiative between EIT Digital, Université de Nice Sophia-Antipolis / Université Côte d'Azur, and INRIA - introduces the Linked Data standards and principles that provide the foundation of the Semantic web. You will learn how to publish, obtain and use structured data directly from the Web. Learning the principles, languages, and standards to exchange data on the Web will enable you to design and produce new applications, products, and services that leverage the volume and variety of data the Web holds. We divided this course into four parts that cover the core technical skills and competencies you need to master to be able to use the Web as a space for giant structure data exchange: • in the first part, “Principals of a Web of Linked Data”: you will learn and practice the principles to publish and obtain data directly on the Web instead of Web pages; • in the second part, “The RDF Data Model”: you will learn the standard data model for the Web and its syntaxes to publish and link data on the Web in your applications and services; • in the third part, “SPARQL Query Language”: you will learn how to directly query and access data sources on the Web and obtain structured data relevant to your activity and domain; • in the fourth and final part, “Integration of other Data Formats and Sources”: you will learn how the Web standards interact and interoperate with other data formats to allow the integration of a variety of data sources. Each week alternates short videos and quizzes, as well as supplementary resources and forums to gradually progress through the different principles and standards. After following this course successfully, you will have the skills to obtain focused and structured datasets from the Web that you can then use to augment your own datasets, enrich their dimensions, feed your applications, perform data mining, machine learning, and training, data analysis, AI processing and reasoning and other data management.

Start building applications (apps) that connect to data sources. Learn how client-server communications work and practice reaching out to external data sources with requests for data. You’ll apply techniques for working with APIs by building simple apps that use data.

In this course, you’ll move outside of the platform and begin working with integrations like web frameworks, tools and asynchronous programming techniques. By the end of this course, you’ll be able to: -Demonstrate a working knowledge of how Swift applications communicate over the web -Apply asynchronous programming techniques using Swift -Utilize a variety of methods to take advantage of the Core Data package in a Swift application -Add connections from an app to other languages to provide access to custom built web APIs and database management systems through both the Django REST framework and Swift You’ll gain experience with the following tools and software: -Swift database features and tools -Web communication technologies such as HTTP -SQL CRUD operations -Programming languages like JSON, Python and Django -Database web developer tools such as CloudKit, RxSwift and Swift libraries -Core data -Fetching

Learn the fundamentals of User Experience (UX) research and design. You’ll learn how UX insights relate to design decisions and how accessibility affects users. You will get a brief tour in modern User Interface (UI) design, learn the basics of Figma and understand the importance of micro interactions. By utilizing the UI design process, you will be able to create Minimum Viable Product (MVP) style prototypes from your mockups. Finally, you will be introduced to some methods of data design and the roles of templates and Content Management Systems (CMS).

In this course, you'll walk through installation steps for installing a text editor, installing MAMP or XAMPP (or equivalent) and creating a MySql Database. You'll learn about single table queries and the basic syntax of the SQL language, as well as database design with multiple tables, foreign keys, and the JOIN operation. Lastly, you'll learn to model many-to-many relationships like those needed to represent users, roles, and courses.
