Hello, Chaitatp, The page is pretty long, could you please give the sentence and context? Without these, I'd say the "faint of heart" are those who have a faint heart, thus, maybe, who are easily scared? who are not courageous?

'Not for the faint-hearted' means the same thing.
If you've had a shock, or you're frightened or nervous, your 'heart' is 'faint'. Imagine the little fluttery feeling in your chest when you're apprehensive. That's 'faint-heartedness'.
Here, it would be a metaphor; unless you took software very seriously indeed.

An easy way of describing this is saying that you saw ghosts coming out of darkness, so now youre afraid of going in the darkness, and you saw monsters in the closet in a movie, now youre afraid of the closet

It means "not for the squeamish." Basically, if you have a weak stomach, don't read it, watch it, or go there.
