Description

The course is for people who know nothing or very little about programming and are interested in becoming programmers.

I want to teach you how to become a programmer.

Programming is fun and you can do great things with it.

It also pays rather well and there are lots of programming jobs available.

But programming is a big universe and for someone considering to become a software developer, it can be overwhelming and confusing.

In "How to Learn programming and Become a programmer" I try to dispel the confusion and teach you:

  • How to learn a programming language

  • How to get a job as a programmer

  • What other jobs exist in software development that don't require you to know programming

  • What programming in 5 programming languages looks like: Python, Java, C#, PHP, JavaScript

  • What programming frameworks exist and which are more popular in each if the 5 languages

  • Starting programming exercises based on what I showed you

  • 6 good resources for continuing on your path of learning programming

  • 2 interesting resources for teaching children programming

  • How to choose a programming language

  • What are the most important programming domains

  • Which programming language have good salaries and which don't

  • What programming language I recommend you to start with

I focus on the five most popular programming languages: Python, Java, C#, PHP, JavaScript.

In the choosing a programming language by purpose video I also talk about Swift, Rust, Kotlin and C++.

I also explain some of the programming domains like what backend and frontend programming, microservices, APIs, machine learning and Big Data means means.

In the programming frameworks section I talk about Spring Boot, Jhipster, Django, Flask, .NET, Symfony, Laravel, Angular, React, Vue.

I also talk about a CMS: WordPress, a library: jQuery and a game engine: Unity.

This course is for you if you want to become a software developer.

This course is for you if you are not sure how to learn programming and what your path should be from choosing a programming language to getting hired as a programmer.

I hope this course will help someone become a programmer.

Who this course is for:

  • People who know nothing or very little about programming and are interested in becomming programmers
  • People who want to get a job as a software developer
  • People who want to learn about the five most popular programming languages

I've been a programmer for thirteen years.
I have 10 years of PHP experience, 2 years of Java and C#, a year of Python, and nobody is safe from JavaScript.

I am a big enthusiast of Clean Code.

I'm also a big fan of SCRUM and how you can build motivated, happy teams around it.

I've worked on a lot of kind of projects.
From small to medium projects where I was the only developer to medium and big projects in teams of 30+ people.

Besides being a developer, on some projects I've also have the Scrum Master role, or led the process of applying Scrum inside the team.

I am currently writing mostly Java, and have certifications in PHP and Scrum.
