Hello “👋”

Welcome to another week, another opportunity to become a Great Backend Engineer.

Today’s issue is brought to you by Masteringbackend → A great resource for backend engineers. We offer next-level backend engineering training and exclusive resources.

Before we get started, I have a few announcements:

The Daily Newsletter for Intellectually Curious Readers

  • We scour 100+ sources daily

  • Read by CEOs, scientists, business owners and more

  • 3.5 million subscribers

Now, back to the business of today.

They say the best time to plant a tree was 20 years ago.

The next best time?

Right now.

The same is true for Backend Engineering.

The best time to become a Great Backend Engineer in any of these languages is today.

  • Rust

  • Python

  • Java

I recently launched the first modules of three of our courses with a 44% discount for you.

Here are what to expect in each course.

  • 10+ in-depth modules

  • 50+ in-depth chapters

  • 160+ high-quality lessons

  • 48+ hours of video training content

Each of these courses covers everything in this Backend Roadmap + plus the specific language roadmap.

Here’s a snippet of my story:

I started coding in 2011 and I wasted 4 years jumping from pillar to post doing frontend, backend, WordPress, SEO, writing, video editing, YouTube, etc until I decided to focus on Backend Engineering.

Even with this determination, I still didn’t find that one resource that would take me from zero to hero in backend engineering.

So I ended up using the unstructured and patternless approach to learn backend engineering.

Looking back is funny right?

But a lot of people are still going through this approach of tutorial hell.

That’s why I spent my time, and my money to create a course that takes you from beginner to intermediate level in your chosen language.

  • Each course started from the very basic

  • Move to advanced concepts

  • Then to different technologies like GraphQL, Docker, etc

  • Then to different advanced patterns like Testing, deployment, etc.

  • And building 10+ real-world projects to solidify your knowledge.

If you preorder now. Here are all the benefits you will get:

  • 44% discount (You pay $150 forever instead of $270)

  • Access to the Essentials (to get started)

  • 3-month mentorship from the course instructor (worth $500)

  • Access to quizzes, exercises, tasks, code playground, etc

  • A Backend Engineering Certificate

Start learning now (Discount ending this month):

Also, you can pick up a single course from a collection of courses we have on the MB Platform.

That will be all for this week. I like to keep this newsletter short.

Don’t forget that this week, we are discussing Design Patterns, their types, the GoF design patterns, drawbacks, and benefits for backend engineers.

Don’t miss it. Share with a friend
