So, you are going to learn Java and have found our CodeGym resource . To make everything fall into place, I will try to describe the process of using the resource in the form of abstracts.
You can log in to the service anonymously or through a social network. If you logged in anonymously, you can link your social network in the settings.
This makes it easier to enter the site, you do not need to remember the secret key, you will not lose it. We are not spammers, and if we write to you, then only in exceptional cases.
The secret key is your account. If you send it to a friend or post it on the Internet, then, in fact, you lose your account.
Creating a new key results in the creation of a new account. If you want to start learning again, then create yourself a new secret key.
So, you are logged in. Start lecturing and doing the tasks that are given in the lectures. If you are unable to solve the problem, then ask a question about the solution on Help .
At the third level, you will be asked to download the project in IntelliJ IDEA along with the CodeGym plugin. You need to install everything and move to solve problems in IDEA. Carefully read all additional materials for level 3, they describe how to properly open a CodeGymHomeWork project, and how to set up a development environment.
Learning with CodeGym is different from the standard education pattern, which is a lecture followed by practice. CodeGym has a different schema:
some tasks are given in advance (first you ask yourself questions, then you get answers). Those. there were no lectures on such problems yet. Information on how to solve them should be searched on the Internet or click on the lectures further. At the next level, theoretical material will be given.
part of the tasks is given for repetition
part of the tasks is bonus, they are not built on the course material. For information - only on the Internet.
Some of the tasks are given to consolidate the material just passed.
part of the tasks is video. They allow your brain to relax and "digest" the material you have just studied. Performing tasks consistently you will achieve maximum results.
At level 5, you will have the opportunity to receive an invitation to our Community . Go to settings, copy the invite and register. Here you can discuss any questions related to programming.
You must learn to search for information on the Internet. It is very important. No one at work will chew on the material for you. You need to learn how to search and master the material on your own. To do this, at the end of each lecture is given a link to additional material, which is required reading. Don't skip this part of the tutorial.
You must read at least one Java book. More desirable: Head First Java, Thinking in java. The course is designed in such a way that you are sent to read a book in addition to the lecture material. Part of the theoretical material is not given in the course, you must learn it from other sources.
CodeGym is not just another lecture on Java, which is full on the Internet. This is a balanced course from the theory we wrote, a large number of practical tasks, links to books and forums, support on Help, the community.
Each task is designed to teach you something. Remember, it's not just Java! In addition to Java, the course teaches how to use IDEA, search for information on the Internet, read books, analyze, communicate with fellow students, "read" someone else's code, refactor, decompose large tasks into subtasks, and also teaches how to use patterns. The course also contains interview questions that will be asked at almost every interview.
At level 10, the free part of the course ends. Those who have bought a subscription continue to learn on CodeGym.
Everyone has access to all the material covered, as well as the use of the Community and Help. It's time to specify in the settings the email for communication, as well as the city in which you expect to find a job later. Companies contact us, and we give a sample only by city, after that we will contact you by email and be able to send your data to the employer. Those. users without city and email are ignored.
You can get a monthly subscription for inviting friends. Just place your referral link on the Internet, for example, somewhere on the forum. When 10 of your friends reach level 5, you can get a subscription for one month. For cheating invited accounts go to the ban.
A monthly subscription must be activated, after which it can be suspended only once. If you have suspended your subscription, you will not be able to receive and submit tasks. Access to already passed material remains.
The first 20 levels are an overview of the java core. Levels 21-40 is an in-depth study of java core.
Starting from level 21, large tasks appear - this is one large task, divided into 15-25 tasks. Also, from level 21, questions for interviews appear. It's time to go for a couple of them. Most likely you will not get a job, but will see the world more real. You can also try to get a job as an intern at one of the companies. List of companies in Ukraine that offer internships.
Premium Project subscribers approaching level 30 can apply to participate in the Real Project. It is advisable to first read the reviews and technology stack of Real Projects.
And the most important thing in the end - be sure to read the FAQ and the Code of Honor to avoid misunderstandings. After all, as everyone knows, ignorance of the laws does not exempt from responsibility.
