Course description

You've come up with a great idea for a side project. But here's the question: how do you turn it into a real product? And most importantly, how do you get people to start using it?

This course is dedicated to exactly that. By completing it, you will learn to:

  • Understand what makes the first version of a product truly high-quality
  • Improve the product quickly and with minimal effort
  • Work with user feedback correctly and effectively
  • Create a user-friendly and pleasant interface
  • Attract users organically, without large expenses

If your work experience is not yet sufficient for passing interviews, your projects can play a decisive role. But for this, they must be more than just code examples - it's important that they are used by real people.

When your side project reaches more than 1,000 users, it will already stand out compared to 95% of other resume projects. Achieving 10,000 users, you will start attracting the attention of recruiters. And if you manage to reach 500,000 users, as we discuss in this course, major companies (including FAANG) will be interested in inviting you to work with them.
