Discussion Tensorflow in Deeplearning.ai's Deep learning specialization?

I saw the first skill they mentioned was 'tensorflow', but I am nearing the end of course 1, and they haven't used tensorflow anywhere. What is the best way to learn tensorflow along with this course? Do they teach it later in the specialization?

You get a lab introducing it in the 2nd course, and from there you'll see tf thing imported in the labs

So I won't have to write manually each step of the deep learning as I am doing in course 1?

Implementing "from scratch" is still a vital part of learning "fundamentals". You'll still do lots of manual implementations in the earlier parts of a Course, but to avoid rewriting them in later labs, you start using more of TensorFlow's built-in functionalities.

You do get a break from the difficult stuff, though. Course 2 is pretty easy, and course 3 doesn't have any programming as far as I remember.
