Do recruiters value bootcamps vs self learning and putting it on resume?

Depends on your goals and target companies. The vast majority of companies skip over bootcamp grads because there are just too many applying for their open jobs and they will interview people with experience first. Some bootcamps actually steer people towards reducing or removing the bootcamp, and framing it more like work to get around this. I've seen self-learning work when you have been doing it for years and you have something to show for it. So self-learning and building an app/website over 1+ years that is used by people and almost like a potential business is very impressive. Also self-learning and contributing to the largest and most prominent open source projects, like React, or various projects under Apache and Mozilla, is also perceived very positively.
