✍️ A Note from the Author

I built this course because I watched too many teams treat their digital workspace like a cluttered junk drawer. We often use these tools every day without actually understanding how they connect or where our files actually live. I wrote this for the professional who is tired of switching between five different apps just to finish one simple task.
