Curriculum
StackLab teaches coding layer by layer. Students begin with the foundations in Stack Zero, build core skills in Stack Alpha, then ship real projects in Stack Prime — with progress measured through XP, levels, and badges at every step.
Learning path
Each tier builds on the last. Students advance once the skills and habits in their current tier are in place.
Students build computational thinking and steady coding habits through visual coding and basic web — a calm, confident on-ramp before text-based programming.
A simple web page, an animation, and a first mini game.
Students move into text-based coding and start building interactive applications, with a focus on consistency, debugging, and healthy software foundations.
Interactive web apps and Python mini projects.
Students ship end-to-end projects, working with APIs, databases, and the fundamentals of AI and data, then deploy real, portfolio-ready work.
A real portfolio project and advanced challenges.
How progress works
Missions, projects, and challenges award XP, so progress is concrete and consistent rather than abstract.
XP raises a student's level inside their tier, marking a clear path from Stack Zero up to Stack Prime.
Badges such as Scratch, Python, Web, and AI record the skills a student has genuinely mastered.
Beyond the core path
The core curriculum takes students from Stack Zero to Stack Prime. Stack Apex is the stage beyond it — earned through consistency rather than purchased. It recognises creators with the strongest momentum and work that sets the standard for others.
FAQ
A structured coding path split into tiers — Stack Zero, Stack Alpha, and Stack Prime. Each tier has its own focus, topics, and projects, so students always know where to start and how to advance.
At Stack Zero. Students learn core logic and visual coding first, before moving into text-based programming, so the foundation is solid.
Stack Zero covers foundations and logic, Stack Alpha builds core skills and coding habits, and Stack Prime focuses on real, full-stack projects with AI and data fundamentals. Each tier builds on the one before it.
Through XP, levels, and badges. Students earn XP from missions, projects, and challenges, level up within a tier, and unlock new skill badges along the way.
