During the course discussion, each feature will be covered first with theory explanation followed by a detailed code walkthrough and execution. You have a flexibility to skip any feature that you already know since the course is organized in such a way where skipping a known feature will not impact other sections/lectures.
All the material discussed in the course will be provided to all the enrolled students along with a GitHub repository details where the entire code discussed in the course is maintained. Each section is followed by a quiz to test your understanding at regular intervals.
