# Learning Paths in the IDE

> The structured learning paths in the LoWisa IDE, how to generate a path on any topic, mission-led learning, the Applied mathematics lab, and learning in a live classroom.

No project yet? The IDE has guided curricula you follow with the tutor, each ending in something you built and can explain.

## Structured learning paths

Choose **Structured learning paths** on the welcome screen. Each path is taught with the tutor inside a real project:

- Web Foundations
- Backend APIs with Node
- Python for Data
- Git & Collaboration
- Debugging Mastery
- Data Structures & Algorithms
- Testing Mastery
- Databases & SQL
- Security Essentials
- Deployment & DevOps
- TypeScript

New to the IDE itself? Click **Meet LoWisa** in the menu bar for a narrated tour, or choose **Learn LoWisa itself** on the welcome screen: what each part of the workbench does, when to reach for it, and a lesson that proves you can.

## Other ways to learn

- **Generate your own path.** Name any topic and the tutor designs a curriculum with auto-graded exercises.
- **Mission-led learning.** Fix a real product problem in a world you love, such as sports, music or games, and master the concepts behind it.
- **Build from your YouTube creator.** Paste one of their videos; the tutor pulls out every project they proposed and teaches you to build each one.
- **Applied mathematics.** Tune real simulations of queues, probability and optimisation, and build intuition for the maths that runs real systems.

## Learning together: Classroom

Choose **Classroom** on the welcome screen to teach a live class, or join one with an invite code from your teacher.

## On your phone too

The LoWisa phone app on Google Play and the App Store teaches the same way, with 37 programming languages, career paths and any topic you describe. A plan bought on the web works in both: activate it with the email you subscribed with. See [Getting started with the phone app](/help/getting-started/).
