Thesis (remember this every day)

Companies must stop letting unproven developers learn on production business systems. If you can design, secure, test, and ship this Monopoly engine on Odoo — you are ready for professional work. If you cannot yet — keep building here, not on a live ERP.

Lab

  1. Get the code for lecture/L00-start-here only (not main, unless you finished the course).
  2. Install/upgrade the module in a dev database.
  3. Confirm the app state matches the description above.
  4. Complete any typing exercises in the masterclass video for this lecture.
  5. When ready, move to the next lecture and download the next branch.
