Git & Version Control
Master Git from the ground up: commits, branching, merging, rebasing, resolving conflicts, GitHub workflows, and CI/CD basics. Every developer needs this — learn it properly.

By the end you'll be able to
- Use Git the way teams actually use it — branches, merges, rebases, PRs
- Recover from the 'oh no' moments without losing work (reset, reflog, stash)
- Read someone else's commit history and understand what changed and why
- Resolve merge conflicts confidently
- Avoid the bad-Git-habits that make team-mates roll their eyes
Is this course for you?
This is right for you if you…
- You're about to start your first dev job — Git is the one tool you'll use every single day
- You've been 'using Git' for years but secretly only commit/push and pray the merge button works
- You've messed up a branch and lost work and don't want it to happen twice
Don't take this course if you…
- You don't write code yet — Git is for managing code; learning Git without code to manage is empty exercise
- You only ever work alone on solo projects — the social-collaboration half of Git is half the value here
- You expect to memorise commands — Git rewards understanding the model (commits, refs, trees), not the syntax

Oleksii Anzhiiak
Software Architect, Senior .NET Engineer & Co-Founder
Oleksii Anzhiiak is a Software Architect, Senior .NET Engineer, and Co-Founder of ToyCRM.com and ProfectusLab. With over 15 years of experience, he specializes in distributed systems, cloud infrastructure, high-load backend development, and identity platforms. Oleksii designs complex architectures, builds secure authentication systems, and develops modern engineering education programs that help students achieve real career results.
Currently leads architecture for ToyCRM.com — a multi-tenant CRM platform built on .NET by our team. The same patterns and design decisions used there appear directly in the courses: identity & auth, distributed services, code review culture. You learn from engineers actively shipping production code, not from a textbook.
Syllabus
Learn Git and GitHub workflows in four practical modules:
- 1 Module 1: Git fundamentals — init, add, commit, status, log, diff
- 2 Module 2: Branching & merging — branch strategies, merge, rebase, cherry-pick
- 3 Module 3: GitHub workflows — pull requests, code review, GitHub Actions basics
- 4 Module 4: Conflict resolution and history rewriting — reset, revert, stash, bisect
Prerequisites
No prerequisites. Suitable for any developer at any stage.
No prior experience needed. Basic command-line comfort is helpful but not required.
What you'll build
You leave with the Git fluency that makes you a pleasant team-mate from day one — branches that aren't a mess, commits that explain themselves, conflicts you can resolve without panic. This is the skill no formal course on the planet covers properly and yet everyone is judged on at every code review.
- Branches, merges, rebases, cherry-picks
- Conflict resolution under real-world conditions
- Stash, reset, reflog, recovery from bad commits
- PR workflow on GitHub / GitLab
- Reading and writing useful commit messages

Spec-Driven Development: When Your Spec Becomes the Codebase
I haven't written a function by hand in two months — and the codebase has never been healthier. Here's how spec-driven development changed what 'engineering work' means in 2026, the rules that keep the discipline honest, and where it still falls apart.
Claude Code in Production: What I Learned in 6 Months
Six months of using Claude Code as a daily-driver tool — the workflows that actually save time, the ones that quietly waste it, and the configuration most teams never set up.
First lesson on us. Decide after meeting your instructor.
Sit in on the first session. If after lesson 1 you decide the instructor isn't the right fit, you don't pay for it — and no awkward conversation. (Trial offer applies to courses with more than 5 lessons; this one qualifies.)
Pricing & what's included
What's included
- 8 live sessions × 1.5 hours each — taught by the instructor, not a recording playback
- Slide deck for every session — yours to keep and refer back to
- Working code files and any data files used in class — cloned to your machine
- Weekly homework with personal code review from the instructor
- Recording on request — give the teacher a heads-up ("can't make Tuesday, please record it") and the session is recorded for you
Frequently asked questions
How much time per week will this take?
Plan for the live sessions plus roughly 1.5–2 hours of practice per session. Most students who finish on schedule put in 4–6 hours a week total. If you put in less, you still finish — it just takes longer.
What if I miss a class?
Tell the teacher BEFORE the session — "I can't make Tuesday, please record it" — and the teacher records that lesson and sends it to you. Recordings aren't a default catch-up archive; they're produced on request when you give a heads-up. After the lesson you do the homework, bring questions to the next session.
What's included in the price?
Live sessions with the teacher; the slide deck for each session (yours to keep); the working code files and any data files used in class; weekly homework with code review; and recordings of the sessions you give advance notice for. Anything beyond that — a certificate, alumni access, mock interviews — is listed explicitly in "What's included" above the FAQ for the courses where it applies.
What if I sign up and the teacher isn't a fit?
For courses with more than 5 lessons, the first session is effectively a trial — if after lesson 1 you decide the teacher isn't a fit, you don't pay for it. We'd rather you walk away after one lesson than push through 9 weeks of bad chemistry. (Courses with 5 or fewer lessons are short enough that the standard pricing applies — the trial offer doesn't make sense at that length.)
Can I get a refund partway through?
Yes, while more than half the course is still unused — i.e. you've attended fewer than 50% of the lessons. The refund covers the unused portion proportionally. Past the halfway point we don't refund, on the assumption that the value has been delivered.
Can I switch the language of instruction?
The live sessions run in the language listed under "Available Languages" above. Slides and code files are typically available in all four (English, Russian, Ukrainian, Georgian). Many students attend sessions in one language and read materials in another — that's normal.
Will I be ready for a real job after this course?
One course rarely gets anyone hired by itself — for any field. What this course gives you is the foundation a junior hiring manager expects: working code you wrote yourself, the vocabulary to read other people's code, and the practice habits that make you employable. The honest answer to "am I ready?" is on our roadmap (link in the page header) — open the level you want to reach and read the "You're ready when" checklist.
Can I pay in instalments?
Yes for courses with a "Monthly Payment" option in the at-a-glance ribbon — usually two or three equal monthly payments. Courses without that option are paid in one go. If the price is the blocker, write to us — we look at every case.
