In this course learners will gain a solid understanding of the entire software development lifecycle (SDLC) and essential development practices. Through lessons on requirement analysis, and system design, learners will engage with gathering and documenting project requirements effectively to design system architecture. Learners will explore various software development methodologies such as Waterfall, Agile, and DevOps, understanding how each shapes the development process. In lessons on implementation, learners will explore programming best practices, testing, and debugging techniques, enabling them to write clean, maintainable code and effectively identify and resolve issues. Learners will also explore version control with Git, including setting up repositories, managing branches, and collaborating with team members, ensuring they have the necessary skills to work efficiently in real-world development environments.

After completing this course, you’ll be able to: • Implement and document a requirements analysis • Define system components through the use of diagramming tools • Discuss different software methodologies • Implement version control through the creation and management of Git repositories
