All in one lecture! 😎


What developers must know

A complete guide to computer architecture and operating systems 🙆

The best-selling IT book , "Study Computer Architecture + Operating Systems on Your Own," is back with a free lecture by the author!

  • ✔️ Programming language grammar
  • ✔️ Framework
  • ✔️ Core computer concepts that are difficult to learn with libraries alone

Learning programming language grammar and frameworks isn't everything 📖

Most error messages developers encounter and resolve stem from the operating system. Furthermore, the computer components and operating system are also responsible for executing the code developers write. Therefore, a thorough understanding of computer architecture and operating systems is essential for developers to deeply understand their code. This is why knowledge of computer architecture and operating systems is tested in various technical interviews.

CS knowledge is not a subject about memorizing keywords.

Memorizing keywords alone won't prepare you for the in-depth technical interview questions or translate your CS knowledge into code. This course is based on "understanding the principles," carefully selecting the essential content for developers from all available textbooks commonly used in universities. The content has been reviewed by professors and experienced developers.


Verified content, tons of recommendations 📖

Unlike other books that delve into the fundamentals of computer operation, typically requiring a thorough understanding of digital logic and a solid grasp of computer language, this book provides a comprehensive and accessible explanation of the operating system's functions, including the CPU, memory, auxiliary storage, input/output devices, scheduler, virtual memory, and file system, all with easy-to-understand illustrations. I highly recommend this book to anyone aspiring to become a software developer .

Lee Min-seok (currently a professor in the Department of Software at Kookmin University, former dean of the Innovation Academy)

Many books on computer engineering these days focus solely on programming, which has led me to worry that readers may lack a thorough understanding of the fundamental operating principles and architecture of computers. While this approach necessitates an introductory book on computer architecture, most existing books delve into the subject in a deeply academic manner, making them difficult to understand. This book offers a relatively accessible explanation of computer architecture, from the very basics to the in-depth understanding of CPU and hardware operating principles . I highly recommend this book to anyone aspiring to become an IT engineer, as it will help build a solid foundation.

Daehyeop Cho (Google Cloud Engineer)

I recommend this book to anyone new to programming, aspiring programmers looking to advance, or anyone with a genuine interest in computers. It explains the complex subject of computer architecture from the very basics, making it accessible even to beginners. Even non-programmers will find it easy to grasp.

Lee Sang-jun (CTO of Cloudbrick)

and many others


What you'll learn 📚

This lecture is largely divided into two parts: computer architecture and operating system .

The computer architecture section covers the four core components of a computer, while the operating system section covers what an operating system is and its role. This section provides explanations using a variety of diagrams and examples to ensure easy understanding for everyone .


Target Audience 🔑

Developers (or aspiring developers) who want to understand the principles of computers

Developers (and aspiring developers) who want to prepare for technical interviews

Developers (aspiring students) who want to learn CS knowledge/specialization knowledge

Developers (or aspiring developers) who want to learn computer architecture and operating systems


Things to note before taking the course 📢

  • Not much player knowledge is required.
  • However, if you have learned a programming language (Python, C/C++, Java, etc.), you will get even greater help.

Expected Questions Q&A 💬

Q. Since it is a free lecture, isn't the quality of the lecture low?

This course is of the same quality as any paid course. Despite providing essential background knowledge that all developers (and aspiring developers) should know, we've created it free for those who feel burdened by the exorbitant tuition fees.

Q. Do I need to have the book?

This is optional. However, this course is based on the book and does not provide any additional study materials. Therefore, if you would like study/review materials, we recommend purchasing the book from the link below.

    I was finally able to understand the terms and names that I usually overlooked accurately thanks to the explanations. Thank you so much for providing such a high-quality lecture for free🙇🏻‍♂️

    It's hard to believe that this is a free lecture, but it's of such high quality. I'm a non-major developer who feels like I lack basic skills, but it's really helpful that you explain things in an easy-to-understand way. T_T Thank you for the great lecture!!

    Now I'm writing a review. As a non-major who studied 5 months ago, it was so helpful. For those who are taking this course, it seems like it's important to buy the book unconditionally. Honestly, I think you could sell the course separately from the book.. ㅎㅎ When I bought the book, there were short summary notes between the books~ Especially, the notebook I received was so cute that I used it well. Now, I'm writing a review after stopping by to review because I'm starting to feel a little lost.. I highly recommend it to non-majors! And thank you for the great lecture. Lastly, if I want to learn more about advanced learning, would it be good to look at something like a dinosaur book on operating systems? I want to learn more about advanced learning.. If you could tell me how to learn advanced learning about computer architecture, I would appreciate it. (I think you talked about advanced learning in the lecture.. I don't remember because it was 5 months ago.. I'm sorry if you talked about it in the lecture..)

      Thank you so much for your kind words..! If you want to study computer architecture in depth, you can look up the registers or instructions of a specific CPU (I uploaded it to the in-depth study repository), or you can look up the specifications of actual computer parts. If you want to study operating systems in depth, you can learn a programming language and then write a multi-threaded, multi-process program, or you can install a Linux operating system and learn through practice using various commands (profiling tools, etc.) that can check the internal operation of the operating system. Thank you again for listening.

    I started taking this course because I felt I was lacking a lot in CS knowledge,,, Despite being free, the lecture quality is incredibly good. You explain things so well that beginners can easily understand! And even though the course covers theoretical content, I like that there are many diagrams, so it doesn't get boring. Thank you so much for creating such a great course :)
