business and data logic (REST | GraphQL)

Back-End

JavaScript | Python

Work on the business and data logic of the project, with the interaction with the different databases. You'll only choose one language(JavaScript/Python). We will focus first on JavaScript then python. Understand the language basics still applies here. You should really be good with logic, some maths and creative. The APIs are the core apps that drive every other app functionality.
