This kickstart is a collection of quick tasks that teach you the basics of programmatically optimizing, transforming, and managing your image and video assets. 

It gives you everything you need to get up and running on your own projects in your favorite programming language and offers an optional onboarding deep dive if you're hungry to play some more.
