From confusion to clarity

Magento's complexity can be so overwhelming that it seems like an endless maze of confusion. You wind up looking through the documentation, stumbling upon outdated or incorrect blog articles, and reading through random StackOverflow posts.

You'll cobble together some code that may or may not work, but even if it does, you have no clue what's happening under the hood.

It's a constant struggle that will wind up completely draining your confidence. But there is a way out.

The Magento 2 Coding Kickstart is the course you've been looking for. The one that will start your road to complete Magento mastery.

This course doesn't just teach you Magento — it transforms you into a confident developer who truly understands the platform. The goal of this course is to give you the ability to navigate through the architecture with ease. Confidently understand the request flow, core design patterns, and data structures of the framework.

It's time to kickstart your Magento developer expertise. Break free from the cycle of confusion and misunderstanding, and build that rock-solid foundation that you've been craving.

The Magento 2 Coding Kickstart is one of, if not the best set of Magento training videos out there. It just cemented in my mind the things I do, and described them in ways that are easier to understand.

What you'll learn

It's not possible to build an all-encompassing course on Magento development, so we take a different approach.

Each course is focused on a specific outcome and follows a proprietary linear-learning approach that teaches you exactly what you need to know, when you need to know it. Nothing more, nothing less.

We also don't want to waste your time, so lessons are also short and concise, and you can easily reference them in the future.

Core Magento backend fundamentals
Whether you are a beginner or a more experienced developer, we'll cover all of the core fundamentals you need to know, regardless of your current knowledge.
The Magento architecture & filesystem
Magento has over 100k files and folders, which are all intricately named and organized. We'll show you how things are structured and how to navigate the filesystem.
Create a Magento module
Magento is built on an extremely modular plug & play system. We'll show you how things work, and how to create your own module from scratch.
Dependency injection
Magento uses a unique dependency injection system, which is a core part of the Magento architecture. This concept can be tricky, but we'll break down exactly how it works.
Core design patterns
In order to make sense of how Magento works, you need to understand the core design patterns. We'll demystify these patterns in detail so they aren't a mystery.
Database & ORM basics
Magento uses a complex database structure, and we'll show you how to interact with it using Magento's ORM (Object Relational Mapping) architecture.
This is a truly wonderful and clearly presented course. For the first time, I truly understand Magento.
