    Abstract: Build powerful, reactive, great-looking UI web experiences with this front-end compiler and its framework. About This Video Build modern, real-life, responsive web applications with Svelte by taking advantage of its small footprint (thanks to its compilation step) Develop complex web applications with Sapper, the framework based on Svelte that provides useful and powerful features thus, making developing Svelte apps even easier Learn a web technology (whose popularity is on the rise thanks to its great developer experience and powerful features) to improve your Svelte skills In Detail This course will take you through three core projects to help you build effective, reactive, and attractive apps with Svelte, demonstrating its intrinsic benefits, including less code and impressive reactivity/state management along the way. Our first project, a vCard generator app, will demonstrate the modularity and reactivity web applications you can develop with Svelte. We will build reusable and dynamic components that we will later enhance with more advanced features. Sections on animation and transitions are included to make applications look as good as they perform! Our second project will be a fully functional Kanban board application, similar to Trello. This application will also have effective state management, by making use of stores and other key Svelte features. Our final application will be based on the previous Kanban board application but making use of Sapper, the official Svelte framework. However, we will build this application with Sapper, the official Svelte framework. We will learn how to create web apps with Sapper and master its most useful features, such as routing and prefetching. We will also provide an introduction to testing Sapper applications with Cypress, and we finish the course by deploying our application in two different ways: as a static page, and as an SEO-optimized server-side rendered (SSR) application.

    Abstract: Uncover essential design patterns with Kotlin About This Video Implement classical designs via creational, structural, and behavioral patterns and get insights into the advantages and possibilities they bring Use a wide range of design patterns to polish your Android code and write cleaner code effortlessly A practical course comprising small and straightforward examples in a friendly style to help you write high-quality programs and create customized applications In Detail Over the years, programmers have run into pretty much the same problems time and time again; not every problem is entirely unique. Therefore, over time programmers applied varying solutions to these problems, and this is how design patterns were born. This course will walk you through some centrally significant design patterns so that you can easily resolve programming issues encountered in your day-to-day tasks. You'll learn these patterns in one of the most modern languages: Kotlin! We cover the three major areas in design patterns: creational patterns, structural patterns, and behavioral patterns. We also implement one structural pattern-Decorators-that plays an important role in adding functionalities to your programs. We take a look at different kinds of problem and implement the required patterns while avoiding common pitfalls. We also supply useful tips and tricks to use design patterns more effectively. By the end of the course, you will be confident about using varying types of design patterns to solve common design problems. Please note that a basic familiarity with Kotlin is desirable to get the most out of this course, along with some experience working with Android Studio.

    Abstract: Build a stunning cinematic 3D animation scene from start to finish in Unreal Engine 4 About This Video Explore the Exile Alien character, along with 28 motion capture animations Focus on Genesis 2 Male and Female characters Delve into setting up a scene, complete with sci-fi spaceship interiors In Detail Unreal Engine 4 (UE4) has emerged as a leading resource in the creation of games, animations, television shows, and illustrations. This course will help you animate your character in UE4 easily. It features all the required scene files and even makes it easy for you to just drag and drop your character in the scene to make it ready to go. The course will take you through the essential steps that need to be taken for the character to be able to accept motion capture animations in Mixamo and then get imported into Unreal Engine. Even though Mixamo discontinued direct support for Unreal Engine, the following method works by exporting standard FBX from Mixamo to UE4 - You'll upload your character to Adobe Mixamo and add motion capture animations. All you need to do is click on the animated preview and it will be applied to your character. As you hit play, the animation begins, being rendered in real-time. You can adjust the speed of the animation and other aspects too. As your character will not already have its materials or textures applied, you'll be able to do that in UE4. You'll find 28 animated aliens, ready for you to drag and drop into your Unreal Engine scene for instant animations. Next, you'll work with the Unreal Engine Sequencer, which is similar to a non-linear editor. You will set up your scene, complete with spaceship interiors, Exile Alien characters, lights, smoke effects, and cameras, and get it ready for animation. As you progress, you will export your movie in high definition in real-time. No longer will it take hours or days to render a single frame; it will be entirely possible to complete even a 2-hour feature film in 120 days using UE4. Toward the end, you will take your rendered video file and bring it to HitFilm Express, or your favorite video editing program, where you will add color grading, music, and sound effects, and fine-tune your edits to prepare the scene for final output. By the end of this course, you will have completed your own animation scene, and have a solid understanding of Unreal Engine's animation workflow.

    Abstract: Hands-on implementation with the power of TensorFlow 2.0 About This Video Refresh your knowledge of CNN with in-depth explanations of how transfer learning works Use transfer learning for both image and text classification, and compare/contrast with the training from scratch approach Learn new features of TensorFlow 2.0, tf.keras, TensorFlow Hub, TensorFlow Model Maker, and on-device training In Detail Transfer learning involves using a pre-trained model on a new problem. It is currently very popular in the field of Deep Learning because it enables you to train Deep Neural Networks with comparatively little data. In Transfer learning, knowledge of an already trained Machine Learning model is applied to a different but related problem. The general idea is to use knowledge, which a model has learned from a task where a lot of labeled training data is available, in a new task where we don't have a lot of data. Instead of starting the learning process from scratch, you start from patterns that have been learned by solving a related task. In this course, learn how to implement transfer learning to solve a different set of machine learning problems by reusing pre-trained models to train other models. Hands-on examples with transfer learning will get you started, and allow you to master how and why it is extensively used in different deep learning domains. You will implement practical use cases of transfer learning in CNN and RNN such as using image classifiers, text classification, sentimental analysis, and much more. You'll be shown how to train models and how a pre-trained model is used to train similar untrained models in order to apply the transfer learning process even further. Allowing you to implement advanced use cases and learn how transfer learning is gaining momentum when it comes to solving real-world problems in deep learning. By the end of this course, you will not only be able to build machine learning models, but have mastered transferring with tf.keras, TensorFlow Hub, and TensorFlow Lite tools.
