Prerequisites & Technical Requirements
Prerequisites
You need to have written scripts (and we expect these scripts to be written sloppily: this courses improves that) that do something useful in a programming language.
You need to know how to manage a single-branch workflow in git, i.e. they keywords 'status', 'clone', 'add', 'commit', 'push' and 'pull'.
You do not need to be experienced in Python, but we expect you to (1) know at least 1 programming language well, (2) search the web or ask an AI for doing things in Python
Technical requirements
You need a good Zoom setup in a place where you can talk.
