Who this is for

For learners ready to move examples from the browser to their own computer. Especially useful before practising Python or another language.

How the course works

15 lessons in three modules. Follow steps on Windows, macOS or Linux, check your result with questions and mark your own practical work complete.

What you will learn

  • Install the editor and a programming language using official instructions.
  • Create a project folder, open and save a code file.
  • Use the integrated terminal, run a program and read errors.
  • Search a project, set a breakpoint and locate a problem in code.

Module path

  1. First start.Installing the editor and creating a first project.
  2. Editorial workFiles, folders, terminal and running code.
  3. Confident stepsSearch, debugging and organising an independent project.

Your result

At the end, create your own project folder, run a file and explain where to look for an error. Assessment relies on your practice and quiz answers; the site does not inspect uploaded files.

What comes next

This teaches the editor, not a programming language. Then choose Python, Java, JavaScript or C++ to study code itself.
