“This method of designing icons is genius. I wish I had known this method a lot sooner.”
Zero programming skills required.
*Learn Full Stack Development is not just another Udemy course...
You know the ones where you watch 65 hours of video and code-along.
Those courses give you false hope because they spoon feed you to the point where you stop THINKING for yourself…
And it's just one big copy-paste job.
You don't learn to code that way!
How do people master spoken languages like Spanish or German?
Think about it…
They don't just read and learn endless theory…
…THEY PRACTICE.
And coding is the same!
You need to build things. And this is at the core of what we do.
Full Stack Web Development is a highly in-demand skill in today's tech driven world because it encompasses frontend, backend and database technologies which serves as the foundation of every single web application!
So that's why we built Learn Full Stack Development, a comprehensive curriculum that goes deep!
If you were to go through this curriculum full-time, it'll take you exactly 12 weeks. But because we know that it's difficult or near-impossible to free up your schedule and commit to 12 full weeks at once, we've built this differently.
You get the bootcamp experience with the flexibility of an online course…
... and at a price that won't break the bank.
In Learn Full Stack Development, you'll master the fundamentals by building and delivering your own projects. Your project submissions will be reviewed by us, and you'll get personalized feedback on every single submission.
Once you've nailed the fundamentals, you'll learn new concepts and get the opportunity to refactor and enrich your existing projects.
It's a great way to learn.
At the end of each module, it's Project Week.
This is where the serious growth happens because you've got to bring everything together to build your own thing. It's challenging… but it's also fun and extremely rewarding.
Another massive problem with traditional online courses is a lack of accountability.
How many times have you bought a digital product only to never come back to it?
This is a major issue.
We solve this by keeping you accountable.
With our Agile Ceremonies, we blend a live element into your self-paced curriculum.
Depending on your time commitment and availability, you can join any number of Live Agile Ceremonies such as:
^^ Oh and spoiler alert, employers LOVE to see candidates with “Agile” experience.
Now because everybody learns differently…
...we've got you covered with:
Learn Full Stack Development will take you from "I don't know how to code" to being able to build and deploy your own full-stack web application from scratch.
To kick things off, we're offering a FREE Early Access Program for motivated students who are able to commit to a certain amount of time each week.
You'll get access to the Learn Full Stack Development curriculum as soon as the lessons drop, and get to work closely with us before we open this up to everyone.

I worked with a small group of early access customers to make sure all of the content in the book was exactly what they needed. Hears what they had to say about the finished product.
Mira’s teaching style is second to none. Everything was easy to follow every step of the way.
I run an ecommerce store selling rare vintage gummy bears and could never find a good gummy bear icon. Now I can design my own in minutes.
I couldn’t believe how fast Mira moved in Figma compared to my own workflow. I’m designing icons more accurately in half the time with the shortcuts I learned from her videos.

Even though I was excited to learn, I was pessimistic that I wouldn’t actually ever get good enough to design my own icons. I was wrong — this book is all I needed.

The complete package is worth it for the weekly teardown videos alone. I’ve learned so much watching Mira take apart other icons and recreate them from scratch.

I never thought I would enjoy designing icons but using the ideas in this book, it’s become a great way for me to relax while still being creative.
Mira Lindehoff – Hey there, I’m the author behind ‘Everything Starts as a Square’.
I’ve been designing icons professionally for over a decade and have worked with dozens of the biggest brands to create custom sets for their products. I’m an accomplished conference speaker, and have been teaching icon design workshops every month for the last three years. I’ve worked with designers of all skill levels and honed my way of teaching to really click for anyone who has the itch to start designing their own icons.
