This course teaches all the major concepts you need to build a production ready SaaS application by step by step _building a fully functional application_. The course is divided into two main parts - the _frontend_, which uses Svelte to build an interactive, rich user interface and the _backend_, which uses Express and PostgreSQL to build a server that handles data management.

Svelte is an exciting new frontend UI framework that offers a very developer friendly workflow and easy to learn syntax. Express and PostgreSQL are tried-and-true technologies that provide a rock solid backend.

Across about 7 hours of video instruction with full source code, this course covers everything from setting up your development environment to securing your application with a multi-tenant architecture and ultimately deploying the application to production.

In this course, we'll be creating a full stack SaaS application with Svelte, Express and PostgreSQL

How to integrate Auth0 for JWT authentication

Now that we have reviewed the high-level design for the School Lunch application, we are ready to set up our local development environment and then start working with Svelte.

The first tool we need is Node.js. If you don't already have Node installed, head over to 

 to download and run the appropriate installer for your operating system.

Once you have Node installed, open your command line and run the command 

. If the installation was successful, this will print the installed Node version.

You will also need a code editor. If you don't already have a favorite installed, VSCode is a fantastic open-source code editor that works well for JavaScript projects like the one we'll be building.

As explained before, the project will be organized into two main parts - the front end and the back end. Since we are fulfilling the role of full-stack developer here, we will keep the frontend and backend files together under a parent project folder.

Our high-level folder structure will look like this:

school-lunch
├── backend
└── frontend

Go ahead and create a local directory called 

. If you like the command line you can use:

We're making progress! In the next lesson, we will initialize a Svelte project and run it locally.

### Local Development Environment Set-Up

Now that we have reviewed the high-level design for the School Lunch application, we are ready to set up our local development environment and then start working with Svelte.

The first tool we need is Node.js. If you don't already have Node installed, head over to <https://nodejs.org/en/download/> to download and run the appropriate installer for your operating system.

Once you have Node installed, open your command line and run the command `node -v`. If the installation was successful, this will print the installed Node version.

    $ node -v
    v12.18.0

You will also need a code editor. If you don't already have a favorite installed, VSCode is a fantastic open-source code editor that works well for JavaScript projects like the one we'll be building.

The VSCode installer can be found at: <https://code.visualstudio.com/>

### Source Code Organization

As explained before, the project will be organized into two main parts - the front end and the back end. Since we are fulfilling the role of full-stack developer here, we will keep the frontend and backend files together under a parent project folder.

Our high-level folder structure will look like this:

    school-lunch
    ├── backend
    └── frontend

Go ahead and create a local directory called `school-lunch`. If you like the command line you can use:

    $ mkdir school-lunch
    $ cd school-lunch

We're making progress! In the next lesson, we will initialize a Svelte project and run it locally.
