So you’ve learnt basic coding and you’ve started to work on your own project. But the magic of learning code is gone. It’s starting to feel a bit ho hum.
That can only mean one thing. You’ve outgrown the basics, and you’re ready to move on to the advanced stuff!
Now’s the time to introduce yourself to some advanced coding concepts – like software design, MVC, code commenting, test-driven development, agile development and more. Learn these exciting new concepts and the magic of learning code will return!
Wait! Are You Ready for Advanced Stuff?
