How to Become a Software Developer from Scratch

Software development is the process of conceiving, specifying, designing, programming, documenting, testing, and bug fixing involved in creating and maintaining applications, frameworks, or other software components.

This course is split into 6 modules to help you become a professional developer of enterprise web applications. In the first module, we will start by talking about the IT industry in general. In the second module, we will talk about our daily work: how we work in teams and how important teamwork is. In the third module, we will set up a complete local development environment and demonstrate a sample enterprise-class web application—all to give you an impression of what it looks like.

In the fourth module, we will have an introduction to the most essential technologies: programming in Java, Spring enterprise framework, front-end development (JavaScript and Angular), version control systems, databases, networks, and infrastructure. In the fifth module, we will go through a couple of more advanced topics, to inspire you and to give you a strong foundation to further develop your skills.

We will finish this course with some practical tips about job interviews, sample tasks that you might expect on your first day at a new job, and a couple of learning tips.
