Mojo 101: From Syntax to GPU Programming [Session 2]

Mojo is a powerful and expressive language for writing high-performance kernels on CPUs, GPUs, and ASICs, while empowering developers to extend Python seamlessly. It’s designed to be a user-friendly, memory-safe programming language for writing fast code across diverse hardware. Four years and 36 releases later, Mojo 1.0 lands this summer. Ahead of this milestone, we're launching a free, four-week live course to help you learn Mojo from the people who built it. Starting July 9th, the Mojo team will run weekly 60-minute sessions on YouTube, streamed live and then available on demand. The instructors are Mojo engineers who work on the language and runtime every day. They know the internals, the design decisions, and how to solve real engineering problems in Mojo. The schedule: Week 1 | July 9 | Language Fundamentals Week 2 | July 16 | Value Ownership and Metaprogramming Week 3 | July 23 | Standard Library Week 4 | July 30 | GPU Programming This course is built for software engineers who are new to Mojo. GPU experience is not required; week 4 provides an entry-level introduction. Each week includes a short reading and a coding challenge you can complete before the live session. The Modular team will be in the live chat throughout each stream to answer questions. You’ll leave each session with practical guidance on Mojo best practices. Sessions are free and open to anyone.
