Bleeding Edge
Full-Stack Web Development
This course trains you to become a Full-Stack Web Developer. You will learn precisely those skills that will enable you to get a job in this field.
The Tech Stack
Learning How to Code
To become a developer, it is essential to learn how to code. Once you properly learned how to code in one language, it becomes easier to learn another language. This is why we put a lot of emphasis on learning how to code.
Instead of learning a certain tech stack, you will learn:
- How to think like a programmer
- Logic thinking
- Analytical thinking
- Reading and understanding code
- Writing your own programs (“speaking” the language)
Meta Skills
In addition to learning how to code and our tech stack, you will learn a set of meta skills, such as:
- Problem solving
- What to do when getting stuck
- Debugging
- Finding things out (i.e. using Google, YouTube, or ChatGPT to find solutions)
- Speaking about code
- Lifelong learning
🎯 Learning Outcomes
The goal of this course is to get the participant job-ready for a career as web developer. At the end of the course, the participants…

- are proficient in programming.
- can create web applications from scratch.
- know how to use the frontend-framework React.js.
