Software Development and IT - complete guide to key concepts




Software Development and IT - complete guide to key concepts

Are you a non-technical professional working in IT like PM or BA that would like to understand better software development projects? Or maybe you're a junior IT engineer or have been an engineer for a while but worked in your own silo? Or maybe you're an IT recruiter and need to have the confidence to talk to software engineers about their experience?

This course is for you!

But wait, what if you don't work in IT yet but would like to get into the industry as either technical or non-technical professional? This course is perfect for you too!


Sometimes the most important problem is WHAT we should learn. If we don't know the key problems and concepts, then how can we learn about them? More importantly, how can we effectively prepare for conversations about topics we have got no idea about? Time for some answers!


This course is the one-stop-shop for learning about all the different areas of software development. It is packed with key concepts and knowledge. Everything is visualised with animations. No time is wasted for excessive details or talking too broadly. The information you'll find here is useful to understand different kinds of IT projects and what is going on around them. Not least, to understand who is doing what.


Based on student feedback the course has been updated with helpful activities! You will write and execute your first line of Python code. Not only that, detailed explanation of what is happening will give you an insight into how programming language syntax is constructed. On top of that, there are 30+ quiz questions to help you persist learned concepts. Actually, you might even learn something new from the quizzes, as even incorrect answers describe and explain actual, real-world concepts.


Here is a partial list of the topics that are covered in this course:

  • popular programming languages

  • difference between software frameworks and libraries and popular examples

  • basic components of web applications and applicable terminology

  • types of data and databases

  • what is cloud and why is it such a big deal

  • how are applications put on the internet or what is deployment

  • application testing and types of tests

  • application environments

  • most popular technologies for some of those basic application components

  • what is application architecture and how to design it

  • how are engineers collaborating on the same codebase and what is GIT

  • why is agile practically the only methodology used to develop software

  • how does scrum come into this

  • engineering roles responsible for different components of applications

  • most popular technologies specific engineers work with


I've made this course after delivering such training offline internally in the company I work for to a group of non-technical PMs. Some of whom only recently had joined IT. It was received so wall that other departments started asking for it too.

One of the participants told me: "I learned more about IT during those 3 hours than during my 3 years in IT. This should be available online".
