## Getting started [2 months]

There are three main goals to get up to speed with deep learning: 
1) Get familiar to the tools you will be working with, e.g. Python, the command line and Jupyter notebooks
2) Get used to the workflow, everything from finding the data to deploying a trained model
3) Building a deep learning mindset, an intuition for how deep learning models behave and how to improve them

- Spend a week on codecademy.com and learn the python syntax, command line and git. If you don't have any previous programming experience, it's good to spend a few months learning how to program. Otherwise, it's easy to become overwhelmed.
