What you'll learn

For many of us, software development started as a hobby, but now that we're doing it full time, we need to look at what it means to be a professional software developer. To do this, we'll examine some key areas that have parallels in other professions. We'll look to improve our industry with lessons learned in other industries. In the end, the goal of the course is to show how development can be done in a professional manner, and why it's important to do so.
