  • Basic computer skills: surfing websites, running programs, saving and opening documents, etc.

Description

If you're an office worker, student, administrator, or just anyone who wants to explore the wondrous world of programming, this course will teach you the basics of programming. Moreover, it has some reference to pop culture like Ariana Grande and Singaporean context like Nasi Lemak Burger.

This course is for complete beginners and covers the fastest growing language, Dart. Hopefully, this course entertains as well.

This course covers concepts on:

  • Functions, that either runs multiple tasks in one command, or that takes in an input and gives the needed output

  • Data Types such as integers, strings, booleans and nulls

  • Variables, that stores the different data types, for later use

  • Relational and Logical Operators, to compare statements to see which is true or false

  • Conditional Statements, to make the sound decision

  • List, to store data in a structured way

  • Loops, to run the same task till the goal has been reached

By the end of this course, not only you'll be able to have a basic understanding of the fundamentals of programming, but also be able to list this on your resume.

Who this course is for:

  • Office workers and students who wants to explore and see what programming and coding is all about
  • Anyone, from delivery riders to teachers, who is thinking on a career change to become a software developer

I'm Haris, a developer (mainly coding in Flutter for 2 years) who wants to create entertaining coding tutorials. I have helped teach hundreds of students to learn code, from creating games using Unity, to create mobile apps using React Native, and teaching kids Scratch.


At the age of 22, I started to get serious in programming when I was going through a coding bootcamp. I realised that the lessons were hard to understand and boring. This gave me the motivation to make coding lessons entertaining, relatable and fun.


I research to find ways to explain hard concepts into simple and relatable examples.
