Software Development

Software Development is the process of conceiving, designing, programming, documenting, testing, and bug fixing involved in creating and maintaining applications, frameworks, or other software components. Coursera's software development catalogue teaches you about the practical aspects of complex software systems development. You'll learn about different software development paradigms, design patterns, coding conventions, source control, software testing, debugging, and software architecture. In addition to this, you'll also gain knowledge about continuous integration and continuous delivery (CI/CD) workflows, Agile development methodologies, and the role of cloud computing in modern software development. This skill is essential for aspiring software developers, software engineers, IT professionals, or anyone interested in building robust, reliable, and efficient software systems.
