Target group

The course is intended primarily for those who don’t have previous or have low exposure to programming but would like to start more seriously with it. Everyone else who would like to take a look at the secret world of programmers and thereby understand the nuances of software creation is also welcome. For example, product managers, key users, testers. For the course, the level of a regular computer user and proficiency in spoken English is sufficient. The course does not require prior knowledge of software development.
