Object-oriented programming (OOP) is a popular programming paradigm or style of programming. It’s been around since ‘70s, but unlike tools and frameworks that come and go, OOP is still very relevant today. That’s because it’s not a programming language or a tool. It’s a style of programming.

Why learn OOP?

OOP helps you manage and reduce complexity in software by building re-usable building blocks (objects). Properly designed objects provide a simple interface and hide the unnecessary complexity from the outside, just like a DVD player! A DVD player has a complex logic board on the inside and a few buttons on the outside. When you press the play button, you don’t care how all those microchips talk to each other.

Object-oriented programming helps you:

  • Manage and reduce complexity
  • Eliminate redundant code
  • Build re-usable building blocks
  • Write cleaner code

An essential skills for every developer:

OOP comes up in many technical interviews. So if you really want to be a serious developer, you need to understand object-oriented programming. As a technical interviewer myself, if I see a candidate with OOP on their resume, that candidate stands out to me. 

It may interest you to know that many of the popular frameworks out there that you might be using are actually designed with OOP concepts in mind. Angular is an example of such frameworks!

Mosh Hamedani is the founder of Code with Mosh, one of the highest-volume independent online instructors in software education. He has been publishing courses continuously since the early Udemy era and has taught over a million students across his Udemy catalog and his standalone Code with Mosh platform. His teaching style is patient, rigorously structured, and deliberately beginner-tolerant — the courses are widely cited as some of the most accessible introductions to their respective topics.

The Code with Mosh catalog covers an unusually wide span: web development with HTML / CSS / JavaScript / React / Angular / Node.js, Python and Django, C# and .NET, mobile development with React Native and Flutter, SQL and database fundamentals, and the algorithm / data-structure interview prep tracks. Few independent instructors maintain this much breadth at consistent quality.

The CourseFlix listing under this source carries over 35 Code with Mosh courses spanning that range. Material is paid; Code with Mosh runs on per-course pricing on the original platform. Courses are aimed primarily at developers picking up a new technology from a clean start through to working production proficiency.

Udemy thumbnail

Udemy is the largest open marketplace for online courses on the internet. Founded in 2010 by Eren Bali, Oktay Caglar, and Gagan Biyani and headquartered in San Francisco, the company went public on the Nasdaq in 2021 under the ticker UDMY. The platform hosts well over two hundred thousand courses across software development, IT and cloud, data science, design, business, marketing, and creative skills, taught by tens of thousands of independent instructors. Roughly seventy million learners use it worldwide, and the corporate arm — Udemy Business — supplies a curated subset of that catalog to enterprise customers.

Because Udemy is a marketplace rather than a single editorial publisher, the catalog is uneven by design. The strongest material lives in the long-form, project-based courses authored by working engineers — full-stack JavaScript, React, Node.js, Python data science, AWS, Docker and Kubernetes, mobile development with Flutter and React Native, and cloud certification preparation. The CourseFlix listing under this source is the slice of that catalog that has been mirrored here for offline-friendly viewing, organized by topic and updated as new releases land. Pricing on Udemy itself swings dramatically with the site's near-permanent sales, which is why the platform is best treated as a deep reference catalog: pick instructors with strong reviews and a track record of updating their material rather than buying on the headline price alone.
