Simple API Versioning
In this lesson, we'll implement a simple versioning mechanism for our API. Versioning allows us to safely make breaking changes without breaking our user's implementations of our API.



Setting Up Our REST Client
In this lesson, we'll take some time to get set up and get comfortable with a REST Client application. This will allow us to store our API endpoints within collections to simplify testing them as we build them out. In this series, I'll be using Hoppscotch



Our First API Endpoint to Get Our Organization's Details
In this lesson, we'll add the first endpoint to our API. With this endpoint we'll return back the Organization's details for the provided Access Token with the request.



The Goal of our REST API
In this lesson, we'll briefly give an overview of REST and how we'll be taking a practical approach to it when building our API.



Deleting/Revoking Access Tokens
In this lesson, we'll add the ability for our users to revoke an access token by deleting it out of our database.



Displaying & Copying A Newly Created Access Token
In this lesson, we'll add a secondary step to our access token creation flow that will display the newly created access token to the user one time, allow them to copy the token, then drop the token completely from memory.



Listing an Organization's Access Tokens
In this lesson, we'll query all of our organization's access tokens and filter out any tokens that are expired. Then, we'll list the organization's tokens showing it's name, abilities, when it was created, and when it was last used.


Opaque Access Tokens (OAT) vs JSON Web Tokens (JWT)
In this lesson, we'll take a step back to understand the differences between the tokens we're using, which are Opaque Access Tokens (OAT), and JSON Web Tokens (JWT). We'll discuss security, scalability, and what makes up each token.

Singleton Services and the Idea of Caching
In this lesson, we'll learn about singleton services and how to use them as a store to hold temporary information throughout our server's life by building a simple in-memory caching service.


Vite and Our Assets
In this lesson, we'll learn how Vite is integrating into our EdgeJS views to serve our JavaScript and CSS files.



A Deep Dive Into Mixins & Compose
In this lesson, we'll walk through what mixins are and how they work by first inspecting them as plain objects then working our way into classes then finally TypeScript. We'll then implement mixins via AdonisJS' compose utility.

Easily Manage & Update Your NPM Packages With This Desktop App!
In this video, we'll see how we can easily audit, manage, and update our NPM packages/dependencies and their versions using a graphical user interface (GUI) called the NPM Desktop Manager.

Understanding JavaScript Promises in ForEach, Map, and Reduce Loops
In this lesson, we'll take a look at how promises work when we try to await them inside newer callback-based loops, like forEach, map, and reduce.

How To Use Vue 3 with TypeScript in an AdonisJS Project
In this lesson, we’ll learn how to set up a Vue 3 TypeScript application within our AdonisJS project using Webpack Encore. We’ll start by getting Vue 3 working, then sprinkle in TypeScript support.

Cross-Tab Communication in JavaScript using a BroadcastChannel
We discuss how to do cross-tab communication with a BroadcastChannel, the browser's native API to communicate across browser instances. It's rather similar to using a SharedWorker, just without the worker.

Cross-Tab Communication in JavaScript using a SharedWorker
In this lesson we'll be going over how to do cross-tab communication using a SharedWorker. SharedWorkers are Web Workers that are sharable across browser-instances (tabs, windows, etc).

How To Do Cross-Tab Communication In JavaScript With LocalStorage
In this lesson, we'll be going over how to do cross-tab communication using LocalStorage. Of the three methods we'll be discussing, this one is the most browser compatible method; despite it being a workaround.

All About JavaScript Arrow Functions
Arrow functions offer a concise alternative for standard functions. Though, there are important functionality differences regarding this binding, constructors, generators, and more.

Introducing and Understanding JavaScript Promises
A promise allows us to delay the execution of code that's dependent upon information retrieved by an asynchronous operation. We'll expand on what this means, how to use promises, and how to go about creating one.
