Each course has theory (I explain how something works) and practice (I solve coding assignments on camera).<br> The whole academy is under construction, and at a rhythm of one new lecture per week this will be the full curriculum:</p> <ul> <li>Introduction to TypeScript </li> <li>Introduction to C#</li> <li>Introduction to SQL and NoSQL(Postgres and Elasticsearch)</li> <li>Backend development in ASP.Net</li> <li>Introduction React</li> <li>Advanced patterns in React</li> <li>Building headless websites with Strapi and React</li> <li>How to write high performance code with algorithms and data structures</li> <li>Machine learning and recommender systems basics</li> <li>Introduction to functional programming </li> <li>Advanced patterns in functional programming and category theory</li> </ul> beginners tutorial programming
