Full Stack Development
Full Stack refers to the complete set of technologies and skills required
to build an entire web application 4 both the front-end (what the user
sees) and the back-end (the server, database, and logic behind the
scenes).
Frontend vs Backend: The Web Stack
Frontend Backend
What users see and interact with Server-side logic and data
HTML structure Server logic
CSS styling Databases
JavaScript interactivity APIs
APIs: The Communication Bridge
Application Programming Interface : A set of rules and protocols
enabling different software programs to communicate and exchange
data seamlessly.
Request Process
Client asks for data Server handles request
Response
Data returned to client
Static vs Dynamic Content
Static Content Dynamic Content
Fixed in place, unchanging. Same content served to all users. Changes based on user interaction and data updates in real-
time.
HTML pages
CSS styles Updated instantly
Fixed resources Personalized data

Exercise 1: Functional Component
Question: Create a functional component named HelloStudent that displays: "Hello Students, Welcome to React!" Render it
inside [Link].
[Link]
import React from 'react';
function HelloStudent() {
return <h1>Hello Students, Welcome to React!</h1>;
}
export default HelloStudent;
[Link]
import React from 'react';
import HelloStudent from './HelloStudent'; // Assuming [Link] is in the same directory
function App() {
return (
<div>
<HelloStudent />
</div>
);
}
export default App;
Output
Hello Students, Welcome to React!
Thank You
