Disclaimer: The actual course content may vary from the above, depending on the trainer, implementation, duration and constellation of participants.

Whether we call it training, course, workshop or seminar, we want to pick up participants at their point and equip them with the necessary practical knowledge so that they can apply the technology directly after the training and deepen it independently.

Goal:

The course consists of theory blocks, demos and practical exercises. At the end of the course, you'll have a repository of many running examples that you can use as a reference for your own projects.
