Who This Course Is For (and Not For):

• Not a Dedicated Programming Course: This course provides fundamental techniques and guidance to help you learn programming, but it's not a comprehensive "A to Z" programming course (like Java).
• Windows Recommended: This course is designed for PC users (Windows operating system). While Mac users can benefit from most explanations and exercises, setting up the local development environment and running the sample system will be more challenging and not directly supported. We unfortunately cannot provide support for Mac users with local development setup.
