Philipp Lackner has over 14 years of experience in the software field. Over the past years, he built a following of over 250.000 developers on social media who trust his work. With over 25.000 sold copies of his courses and 1.000h+ spent for teaching Android concepts, he already helped hundreds of thousands people to learn practical skills they can immediately apply.
He has a degree in computer science, however it didn’t go as expected. The amount of theory that was taught in university made him think about a better approach to learn what is really needed in the real world. Over time, Philipp found mentors who taught him exactly that in a practical setting. That was the game changer for his career.
After having worked for dozens of companies around the globe as a consultant, Philipp now wants to teach other Kotlin developers what really counts for becoming an outstanding developer in today’s competitive industry.
