Field notes
The series uses CheckMate, a task tracker, as a continuous curriculum: Foundations moves from setup through a working, committed app, while Level 2 adds a database, interface, code structure, and automated deployment. The homepage lists guides across Python, SQL, HTML/CSS, JavaScript, and Git-related topics, and says the full series totals 295 pages. Three sample pages from the Python guide are shown, and a sample chapter is offered before purchase.
