DevOps Engineer
Ship like the best teams
Learn to ship software the way the best teams do — from Linux basics to running a Kubernetes cluster on AWS with full CI/CD, IaC, and observability. Then branch into your specialization: DevOps, SRE, or Platform Engineering.
Learning Path
Full-Stack Developer
Own the entire stack
Build a complete web application from an empty folder to a deployed product. You'll own every layer — UI in React, backend in Next.js, database in Supabase, AI features with OpenAI, plus testing, observability, and shipping to production — through one project that grows with you. Optional branches into Product Engineering and Mobile.
Learning Path
Frontend Developer
Craft interfaces people love
Build the interfaces people actually use — from HTML fundamentals to shipping a polished, accessible, production-grade Next.js app with real-time data, AI features, and the testing and observability mature teams expect. Then branch into a Performance or Motion specialization.
Learning Path
Backend Developer
Build APIs that scale
Go from Python basics to building production-grade APIs. You'll learn FastAPI, PostgreSQL, authentication, background jobs, testing, observability, and the deployment patterns real backend teams use — through a single project you build module by module. Then branch into an API Platform or Distributed Systems specialization.
Learning Path
This Isn't Another Tutorial Aggregator
OpenLume roadmaps are designed as complete learning journeys, not playlists.
Structured, Not Scattered
Every roadmap follows a logical progression. Each module builds on the last. No guessing what to learn next.
Project-Driven, Not Lecture-Driven
Each roadmap has one capstone project you build module by module. You don't just learn skills — you ship something.
