Learning objective in Lead Developer Career Guide

An intended outcome that specifies knowledge or ability a person aims to acquire.

Learning objectives name the tasks you aim to complete as you build a skill. Planning them weekly can support timeboxing without assuming every day will go to plan. Aim to achieve at least 70% of your goals; ambitious goals can inspire you, but missing some need not be a reason to give up. section 3.1.4

A developer’s example objectives turn learning into concrete tasks:

Create a GitHub repository. section 3.1.4
Build a simple website with a heading, paragraph, and dropdown; then style its elements with CSS. section 3.1.4
Commit the completed website to the repository. section 3.1.4
