Thank you so much for sharing this!! Do you any beginners who are currently going thru the challenges of learning to code on their own or thru a bootcamp?

I'm really biased here because my company's vision is that adaptive learning is the answer for learning efficiently. I find that everyone has different "aha" moments and everyone learns at their own pace and style. We're very early so before we solve this for learning to code for everyone haha I recommend trying a bunch of free and cheap options of different styles and seeing what sticks. I also recommend doing the same topics over and over until they click instead of just doing ONE course. - cheap well respected Udemy courses - free or cheaper Coursera courses - finding a YouTube teacher you like - Odin Project - FreeCodeCamp - CS50 - Audit some Stanford CS courses online - Work on large open source - Build your own product and ship it to real people - Codecademy
