    The tools are always free and i can hardly think anybody who wants to become a developer need someone teach them how to download and install a piece of software. Learning computer basics is essential before starting any sorts of development.

    If anyone need to pay for doing such things they'd better off pay $20 to learn how to use mouse, keyboard and use google and the Internet. Who writes code without internet researches these days?

  • If the description is correct, it is not just download and install. It also includes the most crucial part of setting up the environment.

    Anyone with basic computer knowledge can download and install easily but getting the development environment working is actually not so easy.

    • It is ready and working as soon as you finish installation. There is no fancy setups/configuration to start with. If you are to start programming, I do not think nor recommend to begin with database manipulation. Start with simple projectseg a console application, then with file manipulations, then GUI, and move into basic database backed applications. Either way, it's never about configuration/installing software to start with but rather correctly referencing libriaries etc. you can't prepare an "environment" until you know what you want to do with your program.

      • What you said make sense if someone is starting programming. But this free course is about setting up a .NET development environment.

          I understand it but I would consider the original $20 as a rip off instead of thinking the free course as a deal. Think about your free local paper gets chucked into your mail box every month or two, I'm offering you a course charge you $20 to teach you that you can get it from your mail box not how to read it. Today, out of good gesture, I'm being really kind, I would like to offer you this course for free. I'm going to teach you how you can get your local paper from your mail box, you will save $20 if you join the course. On the other hand if you want to pursue the course, you have to agree to my privacy policy and agree that I can share your personal info to third party marketing partners etc. I'm not saying OP would do the same but this is still not quite a deal.

    world class development environment

    What's the alternative? Country class? Or worse, council class? That buzz phrase has been used so much that it's meaningless.
