Welcome!
On August 20, 2011, more than a decade ago, Marc Andreessen said that “software is eating the world”. We believe that software is still eating the world and is a key driver of all innovations. Basic understanding of software is as elemental as algebra, calculus, and statistics. We are witnessing a renaissance of software engineering and hope you can join us on this journey.
