Description

Less time for programming, more time for science! 

This mini course introduces the basics of software development. In four sessions of two hours each, we cover tools and practices that are used by researchers to manage their projects effectively. You will not learn how to write any specific code, but you will learn how to think about your code from a bird’s eye view. The course is designed to be language-agnostic, but we will use Python for practical examples.
