Check out what existing students have to say about the course.Ben N."The 14 Day Blockchain Developer course was perfect for me - someone with a development background, but not a lot of upfront knowledge in the space. Although the course definitely goes deep, the underlying concepts and problems being solved are explained really well up front - and when you understand this initial context, it makes the details so much easier to grok. I'd highly recommend this course for anyone like me who wants to not just be able to speak intelligently about what's happening in the crypto space, but also get your hands dirty."Omar O."I would definitely recommend this course for not only people wanting to actively develop blockchain technology applications but also as general knowledge for any developer as blockchain technology is here to stay and it's just a matter of time for most of us to cross paths with it."Brendan M."The lessons on Rocket Engin that Max provides are comprehensive, and provide a solid background for understanding the broader context of blockchain development, the current players, and a clear path to begin development within that setting. A lot of care has gone into preparing lessons and examples to explain abstract concepts. Students can expect to walk away from this course with an understanding of blockchain development, how to begin using the new skillset, and recommended best practices such as including test suites alongside their work."Adamo M."This course provided me with a solid foundation on the history of blockchain, how it works, and all the moving pieces necessary to create a blockchain application. The deep dive into Ethereum helped me understand all the low level components about the blockchain/protocol/platform. The walk-thru on how to develop both the backend and frontend of the app is invaluable. This course provided me with all the knowledge I need to create a blockchain app. The extra goodies you have on how to develop against a local blockchain, the VS Code plugins you use as well as the extra tips on development as you write the code were all super helpful."
