s4.codes — the academy
Courses on what otherwise takes years to pick up by accident.
the method
Show the machine, then the commands.
Two subjects to begin with — git, then design patterns. Each animated end to end, built from the internals up, and taught with nothing skipped. A short list on purpose: better to finish one properly than announce six.
Why animation, and not another stack of slides.
Every one of these subjects is mostly invisible. A commit graph rewriting itself, the moment one class quietly takes on a second job, the dependency that points the wrong way — none of it is something you can point at on screen. The usual course describes it in prose and hopes the picture forms. These draw the picture.
Animated, not illustrated — the diagram moves because the thing it stands for moves. You watch a rebase replay commit by commit instead of reading a paragraph about what rebase does.
Internals first — objects and refs before commands; the problem before the pattern that answers it. Once you can see the machine, its moves stop being spells to memorize.
Nothing skipped — the awkward middle, where most courses thin out to a link and a shrug, is the part worth paying for. It gets the most time, not the least.
One in preparation, one planned — neither of them shipped.
The git course that shows its work — every concept animated, every step explained.
The patterns worth knowing — and the ones worth refusing — each one drawn from the problem that produced it.
The Git course is described in detail because it’s the only one far enough along to describe honestly. Design Patterns is a name and an intent — not yet written up. You’ll see it fill in.
One mail, once, when it’s ready. Nothing else, ever.
Confirm the address and you’re set. We’re not promising a date — you’ll hear when the course is real, not before.
Leave an address and you’ll hear once, when Git in Motion is ready to watch. No newsletter, no drip, nothing else.
