Debug Like an Engineer · Ages 13+ & jobseekers

The half of programming nobody teaches: making broken code work and keeping it working. Eight weeks from the debugging mindset (a bug is a clue) through reading the machine (stack traces, breakpoints), proving fixes with tests (TDD, git bisect), and engineering in a team (version control, code review, production incidents). Ducky the Debug Duck guides the way, with interactive simulators for each habit. The skills that separate someone who finished a coding course from someone a team can hire.
