Boot.dev's computer science curriculum

This is the roadmap for Boot.dev's free-to-audit computer science program.

  • Courses with links have already been released
  • All courses are free to audit, meaning you can read all the material and interact within a "coding sandbox"
  • Hit the project with a star if you find it useful ⭐
  • Please leave feedback in the form of issues here on Github

💡 Features and goals

Hands-on, project based

We believe in learning by building. We mix guided and unguided content. Every guided course is a collection of coding assignments and quizzes designed to teach a set of concepts. Every unguided project is a blueprint for students to build entire applications on their local machines which teaches practicality.

Linear curriculum

The majority of students should have a simple and straight path to completion, without needing to make many choices about which courses to take.

Modern tech stack

The tech stack should be fairly lean. The goal of Boot.dev is to teach the concepts of CS without forcing students to learn too many languages, frameworks and tools. For this reason, the primary languages of Boot.dev are currently:

  • JavaScript
  • Go
  • Python

👏 Contribute

We love help and feedback on how we can improve the curriculum! The recommended way to help is to submit issues here on Github. If you just want to talk about some ideas, use the discussions tab or contact us directly using one of the methods below.

💬 Contact

If you would like to discuss the project feel free to contact us at Boot.dev. We're most responsive on Discord, but you can also find us on Twitter.
