Software development is one of the most sought–after professions nowadays. Programmers write applications that help businesses and ordinary people solve a variety of tasks: from calculators and photo processing to social networks, online stores and electronic document management. More and more companies are moving their business to the digital sphere, and professional software developers are required for this.
You will learn how to develop websites and applications from scratch – from writing simple programs to drawing up technical specifications and creating interface layouts. The main focus of the curriculum is on web application development. A modern web application consists of three parts:
Frontend – interface, the "face" of the application that the user sees in the browser,
The backend is the internal logic of the program that runs on the server and processes all user actions,
The database is the place where user data is stored that is necessary for the application to work.
During the training, you will learn all three components of web applications. To do this, you will get acquainted with the layout using HTML5, CSS3 and JavaScript, learn Python and C# programming languages, learn how to create your own databases, and finally develop your own full-fledged web application. Also, by choice, you can study the development of mobile applications or try yourself in creating artificial intelligence. In addition, you will learn how to manage projects and work in a team, learn how to calculate a business plan for your own product and present the project to the audience.
The curriculum is designed in such a way as to give the student as much practice in programming as possible. Upon completion of the training, your portfolio will include up to 5 different projects that you will be able to present at job interviews. You will be able to work in any city in the world for vacancies "Frontend developer", "Web developer", "NET developer
