    What is the best web development course for beginners?

    Booking and sitting web development courses online or at one of our campuses in Auckland, Wellington or Christchurch is one way to prepare for a web dev career or role. Earning a degree in computer science or a related field is one path toward a career in web development. Coursework typically includes computer programming, coding, graphic design, and mathematics classes.

    Examples include our full stack web development training in New Zealand - Certified Full Stack Developer (CFSD). This bootcamp course offers a foundation-level learning path opening a world of career opportunities. In this interactive online course, students are guided by experts in the field who mentor them through the entire process, and students have the added advantage of taking the course content at their own pace.

    Are web development courses easy?
    Many agree that web development courses are easier than it might seem to non-programmers. Most people can learn web development fundamentals in a few months and land an entry-level job even without experience. The languages and the logic used in web development, like JavaScript, PHP, Python, Java, Ruby, HTML or SQL are simple to learn. Python courses for programming and Java training for programming are available with Lumify Work.

    But we should note that while web development courses may be easier, the complexity or simplicity of builds depends on the project you are working on. For example, developing a web page using CSS and HTML can be more straightforward than developing a basic Android application.

    Do you need to learn web development before app development?
    Most in the field would recommend this. Jason Deegan, VP of Product Development at Teledini, shares that

    "Beginners should start by having a strong foundation in Web basics. But when you're ready to set yourself apart from the crowd and become an invaluable resource, native iOS and Android development are essential in an increasingly mobile world."

    What are some of the best app development courses?

    What course should you take if you want to develop apps? It depends on whether you want to learn app development in general or if you want to focus on a specific platform based on your project requirements.

    To learn about languages and practices in general, you can explore these app development courses for beginners and senior specialists in New Zealand:

    • The Mastering Angular 18 Boot Camp course combines theory with hands-on labs. Get an introduction to Angular, followed by TypeScript, components, directives, services, HTTP Client, testing, and debugging.

    • The ASTQB Mobile Testing course teaches students how to best plan, organise, and execute testing across various mobile devices and user profiles.

    For platform-specific mobile application development courses, you can explore the following:

    Which language is best for app development?
    Java, Python, C++, Kotlin, and Rust are popular app development languages. These were among the world's top 10 most preferred languages in 2022.

    If you enjoy any of these programming languages, booking and sitting an Android or IOS mobile app development course may be a no-brainer.

    Does app development require coding?
    Learning to code helps a lot when you're attending an app development course. Another way to prepare is to familiarise yourself with specific cloud platforms like AWS, Google Cloud, and Microsoft Azure. From there, it's a matter of adding your features and customising the look and feel of the app with your organisation's branding.

    Secure web and application development training courses

    With rampant reports of data breaches and cybercrime, it's crucial that you create a security culture and ecosystem; this culture and ecosystem mitigate vulnerabilities in critical web applications. Learn about DevSecOps Courses in this blog post.

    DevOps is a set of philosophies, practices, and tools that make app and service delivery faster and more efficient. This speed enables organisations to serve their customers better and compete more effectively in the market.

    Here, development and operations staff collaborate at every step to deploy iterations of a product based on a cycle of planning, building, testing, releasing, monitoring and planning again.

    Some secure web and application development training courses include:

    • The Microsoft AZ-204T00 - Developing Solutions for Microsoft Azure course teaches students how to implement Azure compute solutions, create Azure Functions, implement and manage web apps, develop solutions utilising Azure storage, implement authentication and authorisation, and secure their solutions by using KeyVault and Managed Identities.

    • DevSecOps Foundation (DSOF) is a two-day instructor-led course that introduces the purpose, benefits, concepts and vocabulary of DevSecOps including DevOps security strategies and business benefits.

    • Practical DevSecOps Professional - Self-paced is a hands-on course that will teach you tools and techniques to embed security as part of the DevOps pipeline. You will earn how unicorns like Google, Facebook, Amazon, and Etsy handle security at scale and what we can learn from them to mature our security programs. It provides 60-day lab access.
