  • Get a clear structure on what really matters, so you master what really counts in the real world

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.
