ABOUT THIS COURSE

Shippo is a shipment management platform to create, track, and bill shipping on various carriers. The Shippo API allows e-commerce merchants to integrate these shipping functions directly into digital storefronts and create a seamless customer experience. This course is an introduction to the Shippo API and its endpoints. You’ll start with the authentication for your application using Shippo’s developer environment before moving on to requesting and generating shipping data. You’ll create your shipment details with the address and parcel data. You’ll also learn to integrate Shippo’s many carrier partners (UPS, DHL, FedEx, and more). Then, you’ll generate a rate quote and process the transaction to generate shipping details so a package can be tracked. You’ll wrap up by exploring a completely functional web application in React. By the end of this course, you’ll be able to use Shippo API effectively with your own projects.

These are high-quality courses. Trust me the price is worth it for the content quality. Educative came at the right time in my career. I'm understanding topics better than with any book or online video tutorial I've done. Truly made for developers. Thanks

Just finished my first full #ML course: Machine learning for Software Engineers from Educative, Inc. ... Highly recommend!

You guys are the gold standard of crash-courses... Narrow enough that it doesn't need years of study or a full blown book to get the gist, but broad enough that an afternoon of Googling doesn't cut it.

Your courses are simply awesome, the depth they go into and the breadth of coverage is so good that I don't have to refer to 10 different websites looking for interview topics and content.
