How does it work?
visual, practical, unconventional path
1. Study program
We developed a new study program by combining academic and industrial education processes. This isn't a college. This isn't a bootcamp.

2. Videos
We value visual approach, use of metaphors and humor. Short videos cover theory and prepare for the exercises.
3. Exercises
This is the most important thing: practice your new skills from day one. Not in an emulator, but in the real thing.

4. Quizzes
We don't test your memory, rather, we make sure you can think about new concepts from different points of view.
5. Personal help
Our teachers and mentors answer all your questions and help solve problems while guiding towards the best possible solution.

6. Earn points and compete
Earn points by learning programming and solving problems. And feel free to show your acomplishments to everybody!
"The more I study, the more confidence I gain about getting into any topic, learn and conquer it without problems."
"The most important thing is that Hexlet answers 'why' you need to learn something, and where does it all lead to."
