Learn Redis with Node and Express: Build Real-Time Projects | Udemy

Redis is one of the most powerful tools in modern web development — known for blazing-fast performance, real-time capabilities, and a simple yet flexible data model. Whether you’re building e-commerce carts, analytics dashboards, or scalable backend systems, Redis can dramatically improve your app’s responsiveness and architecture.

Who This Course Is For:

• Express/Node JS/TS developers looking to add Redis to their tech stack for performance and scalability
• Backend engineers who want hands-on experience with Redis in real-world projects
• Web developers aiming to build fast, real-time features like session carts, live analytics, or rate-limited APIs
• Students or bootcamp grads who want practical Redis experience to stand out in job applications
• DevOps or full-stack developers interested in Docker-based workflows and caching strategies
• Anyone curious about Redis who wants to go beyond tutorials and apply it in full-stack Node/TS apps
