I have a strange feeling about Codesmith

Agreed, I find it quite deceptive when many of codesmith grads purposely leave codesmith off of their LinkedIn and I've heard that it's encouraged by the bootcamp themselves as well.

I can add more to what "encouraged" means. They have lecture and references materials that do no encourage anything strongly as the "official" stance. Where these "encouragements" come out are: 1. Former students who are resume reviewers, TAs, etc... might give that advice 1-1 because of "other people who did it and succeeded" 2. In verbal Q&A's it might come up as an option to help you 3. You talk to alumni directly on Slack who get placed, ask them for their resume, see what they do, and copy them.
