Testimonies

"J'ai personnellement trouvé le cours très intéressant et rafraîchissant. C'est sûrement le cours où j'ai appris le plus de choses depuis le début de mes études supérieures. J'ai surtout trouvé que c'était le cours avec le plus de valeur unique (des "cours" tutos pour faire des requêtes SQL ou apprendre du JS c'est bien, mais je pourrais en trouver une vingtaine en 2 clics...)" [Miage 2023]

"J'ai trouvé ça très intéressant, beaucoup plus que prévu ! je regrette de ne pas m'y être mis plus tôt. J'ai enfin l'impression de vraiment faire de la POO ! Ou à l'inverse je me rends que je n'en faisais pas vraiment..." - Anonymous, 2019

Extra material

From 2026/27 on, the lectures went from 48 hours to 24. Therefore, we drastically cut the contents. The clever and curious (Hermione like) students can find all the extra material on the same repository in the '2025' branch.

Lecture preparation

This year you will have to prepare for the lectures in advance!

• Do not show up in the lectures without having done the preparation described in ModulePreparation-01. We evaluate that you should spend around 10 to 12 of concentrated hours on this. You can find help on the discord channel and encouraged to ask for help.
• You must know how to define a test!
• You must know how to commit code on github.

Course Material

All slides, videos, and tutorials are available in (or linked from) this repository.

• The official website https://advanced-design-mooc.pharo.org

Course Contract

This course proposes a series of theoretical lectures and practical exercises. A week is in a dedicated folder, and you will find the theory and practice in that folder.

To pass this course, you will need to:

• Pass the exam (see Calendar.md)
• Do at minimum all the homework in the exercises (file Exercises.md in each folder)
• Watch all the videos of the lectures not done during the lectures
• Write (short) weekly reports to tell us your activity. Remember, focus on the important things, and show us that you are learning.

Make a group

Some of the activities during the course require group organization. For example, this is the case for reporting and presentations.

Make your groups and create a folder inside the Groups directory. Choose a name for your group and use that as folder name.

Put inside your group folder

• a file with your full names and emails
• all your activity and reports
• make recurrent pull requests to update it.

For example, imagine that Milou and Tintin are together in a group called MiTin They create a directory MiTin

Groups
    - MiTin
        - members.md (names and emails)>
        - report-week01.md (one section for Milou, one for Tintin)
        - report-week02.md (one section for Milou, one for Tintin)

Make sure you have correct configured you authentication setup

• If you want to use SSH authentication
  • set up your SSH keys with a recent encryption, check github's instructions
• upload your public keys to github
  • If you want to use HTTPS authentication (or not do the SSH setup)
  • change Icebergs setting, "Metacello Integration" with the value HTTPS
  • create an access token to be able to push (and make sure of giving it permissions by ticking the check boxes)
