Lesson 1 • 90 minsPractical Guide

High-Latency Resilient Frontend Architecture: Next.js 15 & TanStack Query

In Nigeria, mobile internet (MTN, Airtel, Glo) suffers from packet loss, high RTT (>120ms to foreign regions), and sudden drops. Frontends must implement optimistic updates, offline caching, and aggressive compression rather than assuming constant gigabit fiber.

Lesson 2 • 100 minsPractical Guide

Offline-First State Synchronization with IndexedDB & Background Sync Workers

Sudden cellular handovers between 4G and 2G (EDGE) cause API requests to hang indefinitely. Service Workers intercept outgoing payloads and persist them locally in Dexie.js / IndexedDB before background sync attempts.

Key Topics & Analytical Concepts

TypeScript 5 Architecture: Generics, Inferred Types & Union Discriminations
Asynchronous Runtimes: Event Loop, Microtasks, Promises & Concurrency
Functional Programming in TypeScript: Immutability, Currying & Pure Functions
Node.js Core Internals: Buffer, Streams, File System & Child Processes
Hands-On Milestone: Custom High-Throughput In-Memory Cache with TTL & LRU EvictionIntermediate

Develop a type-safe, high-concurrency in-memory key-value cache engine featuring Least Recently Used (LRU) eviction and TTL expirations.
