Description

A track is a sequence of modules that can be started at the first module, and when the entire sequence is completed, the track is also completed.

Tracks are used to emphasize a certain course or education.

For example, in this universe you need to first complete PHP - Beginner to start the track. After this you need to complete the modules: HTML / CSS - Beginner, HTML / CSS - Advanced, JavaScript - Beginner and JavaScript - Advanced to complete the track.
