By René F. Ruano Domínguez

PROGRAMMING STEP BY STEP AND MORE - Book 8
Modern API Engineering
OpenAPI, Automated Testing, Render & Scalable Architectures.

Building an API is only the beginning. Modern software engineering requires designing, validating, documenting, deploying, and maintaining APIs that perform reliably in real-world cloud environments.

Book 8 takes the next step in the Programming Step by Step and More series, guiding you from functional API development to professional cloud-ready architectures. Through a practical, project-based approach, you will build complete RESTful APIs while learning the tools and engineering practices used by today's backend developers.

Inside this book, you will learn how to: Design professional RESTful APIs.Build modular applications with Node.js and Express.Document APIs using OpenAPI (Swagger).Validate requests and responses professionally.Perform automated API testing.Implement CI/CD workflows and continuous validation.Version APIs for long-term scalability.Deploy applications to Render.Migrate projects from local development to production.Debug, refactor, and maintain real-world applications.Design scalable and reusable software architectures.
Rather than teaching isolated concepts, this book develops a complete production-ready system, allowing you to understand how every component fits into a modern software architecture.
Whether you are expanding your backend development skills, preparing for cloud engineering roles, or building professional API projects, this volume provides the knowledge, practical experience, and engineering mindset needed to create scalable, resilient, and maintainable applications.

Perfect for: Intermediate and advanced developersBackend engineersCloud-native developersDevOps practitionersSoftware engineering students seeking real-world experience
Continue your journey toward professional API engineering and build systems ready for today's cloud environments.

Keep learning, keep building, and embrace the continuous evolution of software engineering.
