Hello everyone!

I’m pleased to announce that Julia Computing is launching the free public beta of our new learning platform: JuliaAcademy. JuliaAcademy bundles interactive notebooks with instructor videos so you can follow along at your own pace. We’re kicking off with four courses and will be adding more over time. Our vision is that JuliaAcademy will become a place where you can not only learn Julia, but you can also learn about the many domains where people are doing amazing things with Julia. The current courses focus on Julia or Machine Learning, but expect to see more diversity in the future.

This is a free public beta; as we iron out the kinks and add more courses, we will be making it a paid service in the near future. We want to build a sustainable platform that can not only serve as a great resource for folks learning Julia, but also make it enticing for potential authors to create and post their materials on JuliaAcademy through revenue sharing. If you’re interested in becoming a JuliaAcademy instructor, please contact me (either here, on Slack, or via email — it’s my username at juliacomputing . com).

I encourage you to try out these courses! I hope to see you at JuliaAcademy.

Happy learning!
