What You'll Learn
Every topic is taught by writing real code — nothing is just theory
18 topics coveredWhy This Is Different from the Rest
Every decision we made — format, batch size, tools, projects — was made to close the gap between knowing concepts and being able to build
Instructor Types Every Line
No pre-written code. The instructor opens a blank file and builds from scratch — you type the exact same code in real time, line by line.
AI Tools as a First-Class Skill
Copilot, ChatGPT, and debugging with AI are part of every session — the same way your next team will expect you to use them at work.
Real Project, Live Deployment
Build a real backend project and deploy it to AWS EC2. You leave with a live URL, not localhost screenshots.
Small Batches — Max 20 Students
Questions get answered in the session, not queued for later. Small groups mean you're never invisible and the instructor knows where you're stuck.
Interview-Ready Framing
Every topic is taught through the lens of what companies actually test — system design, production patterns, and code you'd write on the job.
Full Recordings Included
Every session is recorded and shared. Miss something? Rewatch it. Want to revisit a concept before an interview? It's always available.
