This course is also a great way to learn a lot of practical aspects of web security, as we are going to be discussing extensively all security aspects of our payment solution that we will be implementing from scratch, without assuming any prior Stripe or web payments experience.
Like all other courses at the Angular University, this course is project-based and is designed to be both watchable on its own but it can also be used as a practical exercise if you choose to code along as we go.

In this course, we are going to take a small single-page Angular application (no prior Angular experience needed), and we are going to add to it the ability to perform one-time credit card charges and signing up for recurring subscriptions.
Our application is connected to a No SQL Firestore database, which allows us to query the data directly from the client without a server needed in between. We are going to cover in detail how all the security aspects of Firestore work as we design and build our Payment solution.
For processing credit card payments, we are going to be using Stripe. You probably heard of Stripe by now, as it’s one of the most well-known startups in the world. You can think of it as an improved, more developer-friendly version of Paypal.
We are going to explain in detail how Stripe credit card payments work, but most of all how to integrate Stripe securely in our application. Using Stripe by itself will not ensure you a secure payment solution, our payment solution still needs to be carefully designed bringing together aspects like User authentication and general web security design best practices.
For user authentication, our application will be using Firebase Authentication, and for data authorization, we are going to be using Firestore Security Rules, all of which is going to be explained in detail throughout the course.
The main focus of our course is going to be the Stripe payment platform. We are going to be developing an Express backend that enables our payment solution, and we are going to learn everything that it takes to deploy our solution in production using Firebase Hosting and Google App Engine for Node.
