So lost and confused

Launch School Core might be good because it's self paced, but I believe it's more text reading and doesn't have a wide breadth of teaching mechanisms. I think you can try it for free though! Rithm is kind of cool because they offer each lesson in different formats: powerpoint, PDF, doc, online, so you can kind of follow your preferred format. But it's definitely an intense bootcamp.

I am looking at Launch School Core right now. The program is a lot longer and self pace, which would be good for me. I did make an account and going to give it a try. Is there any other bootcamp like Launch School?

NOTE: Some of these are controversial, I'm mentioning them to fairly present the options but DO YOUR RESEARCH! I have absolutely no conscious bias or self-interest in these. Bloomtech is self paced, and more interactive but it's a lot more salesy and has a long history of people not happy with it, including lawsuits :(. They have a free trial though without signing anything and you can try it, just don't fall for any marketing or salesperson that reaches out and judge it carefully for yourself. Odin Project is self paced and free, but has little support. A lot of people like Scrimba for frontend, which is a lot cheaper and not a full blown bootcamp. 100Devs is a fairly controversial free program. It's more or less a like a Udemy course with a community Discord to ask questions, and has a lot of people with a hustle mentality that don't finish it, but check it out too.
