It was setting up schemas in posgress and learning the basics of using a sql database; setting up a web api to auth users and connect to that database and serve json with Node, then building a JS frontend to login users and fetch and display that data with backbone. It was done in the format of building a couple applications in teams of 2-3.

My first job didn't use those specific languages or technologies but everything was close enough to what I had done in the bootcamp that I wasn't completely lost. I knew enough to be a good jr developer and learned 20x in my first 2 years on the job than in the bootcamp.

I've since built/done lots of services, data pipelines, database migrations, devops pager rotations, large/complex frontend applications. The bootcamp was really just a jumping off point. The real learning starts when you get to the job.
