About this course

The journey

This is a practical first course in C#. Instead of abstract examples you build console applications that solve small real problems, learning the language as each one needs it: types, collections, methods, classes, files and error handling.

You use the free .NET SDK and any editor, and by the end you can structure a small application, read and write data files, and know where to go next — web, desktop or games.

    Automated my weekly report

    The CSV report lesson was almost exactly my job. I now run a small C# tool every Monday instead of copying cells for an hour.

    Clear and practical

    Every program solves a real small problem. The habit tracker was my favourite and I extended it on my own afterwards.

    Great value for five euros

    Very friendly introduction. The error-handling lesson went a little fast for me, but rewatching it helped.
