It\u2019s incredibly popular, and the only reason I\u2019m even including this section is in case my grandmother is reading this, because I\u2019m sure you already know about it. I\u2019ve also embedded a video just in case she wants to learn more about it, but for the rest of you, skip down to the good stuff.<\/p>\n<lite-youtube videoid=\"To0FKoo_ge4\" style=\"background-image: url('https:\/\/i.ytimg.com\/vi\/To0FKoo_ge4\/hqdefault.jpg');\"><button type=\"button\" class=\"lty-playbtn\"><br \/>\n<span class=\"lyt-visually-hidden\">Play Video<\/span><br \/>\n<\/button>\n<\/lite-youtube>\n<h2 role=\"heading\" aria-level=\"2\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Okay_So_What_Is_Skillquest\"><\/span>Okay, So What Is Skillquest?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>Skillquest is a startup company that is trying to help teach people to code by building AI bots, <a href=\"https:\/\/buradabiliyorum.com\/en\/category\/download-scripts-themes-apps\/\" data-internallinksmanager029f6b8e52c=\"9\" title=\"Download Scripts &amp; Themes &amp; Apps\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">app<\/a>s, and plugins for video games that help develop their programming skills with the goal to help further a career in coding.<\/p>\n<p>They have a number of offerings, but their most interesting course IMO is their Rocket League bot programming course, <a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/skillquest.io\/rl-bot-design-competition\/\">which is the focus of this competition<\/a>. You\u2019ll learn how to program with a video course that teaches you every step of the way, all the way from Hello World to actually programming an AI bot that controls the cars in Rocket League, and eventually competes for the grand prize in the tournament.<\/p>\n<p>I was a programmer for years before starting How-To Geek, and I reviewed this entire course personally\u2014it\u2019s pretty great stuff. Corbin teaches you the fundamentals of programming by showing how each different operation can help your bot do different things. You don\u2019t have to learn a ton of boring things up front, you learn as you go along.<\/p>\n<h2 role=\"heading\" aria-level=\"2\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"And_I_Can_Win_2000\"><\/span>And I Can Win $2000?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>That\u2019s right. Here\u2019s how it\u2019s going to work:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>You have from when you purchase the course until August 1st to program your bot.<\/li>\n<li>The tournament will happen on August 2nd.<\/li>\n<li>The tournament will be streamed on Twitch by some major broadcasters (names have not been announced yet).<\/li>\n<li>There will be weekly \u201cscrims\u201d so that competitors can practice and learn from each other.<\/li>\n<li>Competitors will have access to an online community of professional software engineers and bot builders to ask questions and gain mentorship.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>It\u2019s also worth noting that Skillquest has what they call a \u201cshow your work guarantee\u201d so that if people don\u2019t like the course after they complete it, they\u2019ll get their money back.<\/p>\n<p>There are a limited number of spots, so you should definitely sign up and check it out.<\/p>\n<p><a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/skillquest.io\/rl-bot-design-competition\/\">Enter the SkillQuest $2000 Rocket League Competition<\/a><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p><script>\n setTimeout(function(){\n  !function(f,b,e,v,n,t,s)\n  {if(f.fbq)return;n=f.fbq=function(){n.callMethod?\n  n.callMethod.apply(n,arguments):n.queue.push(arguments)};\n  if(!f._fbq)f._fbq=n;n.push=n;n.loaded=!0;n.version='2.0';\n  n.queue=[];t=b.createElement(e);t.async=!0;\n  t.src=v;s=b.getElementsByTagName(e)[0];\n  s.parentNode.insertBefore(t,s) } (window, document,'script',\n  'https:\/\/connect.facebook.net\/en_US\/fbevents.js');\n   fbq('init', '335401813750447');\n   fbq('track', 'PageView');\n  },3000);\n<\/script><\/p>\n<blockquote><p><strong><span style=\"color: #ff6600;\">If you liked the article, do not forget to share it with your friends.
