Welcome to apiCoder.net
We share programming ideas, API integrations, and real world builds
Phoenix based, remote friendly
Learn how to build API powered websites and applications
I create short, practical video lessons that show exactly how to connect real APIs, handle auth, store data, and ship features without fluff. If you can copy and paste, you can build.
What you will learn
Clear lessons focused on getting working results fast.
- REST APIs, JSON, pagination, and error handling
- OAuth and tokens, secure sessions, and API keys
- Webhooks, queues, and background jobs
- MySQL schema design for real applications
- Deploying to AWS Lightsail with Apache and SSL
How the videos work
Each lesson is built around a small feature. You will see requirements, code, testing, and deployment. The goal is to help you ship features into your own site or app.
- Short videos with source code you can reuse
- Beginner friendly, but not watered down
- Real world patterns you will use at work
Featured app build: Dog Vaccine Tracker
A real web application that tracks canine vaccination dosing and history. This project is being built in phases, with a clean data model, audit history, reminders, and reports.
- MySQL data model: dogs, owners, doses, lots, visits
- Login via Amazon Cognito for fast secure auth
- Dashboards, exports, and compliance reporting
This project application will be a add on for https://vaccinateyourpets.com/
Suggested lesson tracks
Pick a path based on what you are building.
- API Foundations: requests, auth, retries, rate limits
- Full Stack: PHP and MySQL, CRUD, validation, security
- AWS Launch: Lightsail, DNS, SSL, backups, deploy flow
- Production Readiness: logging, audits, and monitoring
