Modern CPUs have multiple cores, but most applications only use one. Learn how to harness the full potential of your hardware with smart multithreading. โšก Beyond Basic Threading - Forget the nightmare of race conditions, deadlocks, and hard-to-debug issues. This course teaches you the right way to design multithreaded applications that are both performant and correct. ๐Ÿงต Master Concurrency Patterns - Thread pools, worker queues, producer-consumer models, and more - learn battle-tested patterns that solve real-world concurrency challenges and scale with your application's needs. ๐Ÿ“ˆ After this course, you'll be able to design applications that efficiently distribute work across multiple CPU cores, dramatically improving performance for computation-intensive tasks and responsive user interfaces. ๐Ÿš€
