What you'll learn

The goal of a playbook course is to let you zero in on specific skills that you want to add to your skill set or improve different tasks we perform with.

First, you'll explore some common tricks and automation techniques within the Editor that improve your productivity. Then, you'll explore ways to customize your settings and experience within ISPF Editor. Finally, you'll learn efficient ways to work with datasets, as well as foreground or background compilation settings.
