it's a great idea to learn how to code. It's a bad idea to pay $10,000 for a 12-week boot camp thinking that you're going to get a $100,000 job after it because placement numbers have been falling off a cliff this year and companies are starting to quote placements in a year post graduation.
Doing a boot camp just to learn may or may not be the most effective option and you should definitely look at it because it's an option, but there's lots of downsides such as the cost and the materials are more oriented to hustling your way into a job rather than learning.
