It is such an eye-opening journey. Challenging and inspiring, I love every moment of it. Thank you SheCodes foundation for this amazing opportunity. Thank you so much, Matt and Team. You guys rock!
What a beautiful journey this has been! Matt is such a good instructor. I can't believe I understand coding basics in such a short space of time. Thank you SheCodes ❤❤❤
I went from knowing nothing about coding to basic knowledge in a few weeks. This program is easy to follow because the lessons are short and concise and you immediately have to put the concepts to use in a lesson challenge. Help and support from other students and instructors is easily available when needed which is comforting because I could see when I wasn't the only one struggling with a concept. I also like how the creator of SheCodes, Matt, teaches the lessons because you can feel his passion for coding. Honestly, I find coding to be challenging but I love it because of euphoria felt when your code works! I am excited to continue learning and cannot wait to see where this new skill will take me!
My SheCodes journey has come to an end. Granted, this was one of the greatest courses I have ever attended. Grateful to Matt Delac and the SheCodes team for their unwavering support. The journey with SheCodes had bumpy areas but that was because you needed to think outside the box. I highly recommend this foundation and would rate it 10/10 any day.
I just completed my 3 weeks of the SheCodes basics, and I am already thrilled with my progress! The course content is clear, engaging, and well-structured, making it easy to grasp even complex concepts. The instructor (Matt) is incredibly supportive and knowledgeable, and the community is welcoming and encouraging. I am excited to continue this journey and can’t wait to see how much I will learn in the coming weeks!
This has to be one of my most proud moments, I am so grateful for this opportunity from SheCodes. I did not know anything about Coding when I started and thought it was for geniuses but I proved myself wrong. Thank you Matt..
Learning Python with Shecodes has been an incredibly rewarding experience. Initially, I was quite apprehensive about diving into Python. But Matt has a remarkable ability to break down complex concepts into simple, manageable pieces, which has greatly enhanced my understanding. I now feel confident in my understanding of the basics of Python and am truly excited to further deepen my knowledge.
That was really hard! But I'm confident that with more practice I'll be able to understand and apply it even better. Thankful that Matt explained everything step by step🤓
This workshop was a little bit different from the previous ones, but it was totally worthwhile. Matt gave excellent advice on how to face the next big challenge: finding a job in tech.
I would highly recommend SheCodes. Matt really knows his job, his voice was well articulated and made it easy to follow the steps. Learned a lot and am on another level in my Web designing.
I would highly recommend Shecodes to anyone who is looking to gain some knowledge with coding. Mr. Matt ,course instructor, is just amazing! He explains things really clear and shows great examples throughout his explanation. Again I highly recommend it.
I recently had the opportunity to be part of the SheCodes.io community through the SheCodes Foundation, and it has been an exceptional experience. The courses are incredibly clear and concise, yet packed with valuable information that’s easy to grasp. Matt, our instructor, has a remarkable ability to teach complex concepts without overwhelming us, making the learning process enjoyable and effective. I’m truly grateful for the chance to be part of this program and for the skills I've gained. SheCodes.io has truly exceeded my expectations!
I have been learning with SheCodes since February of 2023. I have learned so much and built some great project that couldn't have been made without the help of Matt and the rest of the SheCodes team that was there to help find errors in my codes. I am excited to apply what I have learned in this bootcamp in the real world and I can't excited to try out that python add on too. Thank you SheCodes, keep doing what you are doing!
Thanks to Matt and my hard work, this is the first single-page website created, dedicated to my portfolio. It has been tough but amusing, and what I like the most is the fact that I spent so much time improving and changing things, and time flies because I was having so much fun!
I really thought coding was going to be scary and tough, but it's actually pretty cool and fun. It may be a bit of a struggle, but once you get the hang of it , everything becomes smooth. All thanks to Matt and the team!
Coding is becoming less and less daunting and more and more fascinating. Understanding the different systems, how they work and how they complement each other is a whole new world to explore with so many opportunities. Looking forward to starting my next project with the fantastic guidance and teaching skills of SheCodes and Matthieu Delac
I would definitely recommend these workshops as they are just so basic and easy to understand. Hats off to Matt for such an amazing initiative to encourage women in tech!

Due to life events, I had to restart this module many times. As always I found Matt's instruction direct and clear. He always explains the how and the why. Highly recommend if you are just staring out with React.
I absolutely loved this course. It was very challenging but I learned so much. The effort and pay off was incredibly satisfying and finishing the course with a working weather app was such a huge accomplishment. Matt was a great teacher and I felt like everything was explained very clearly. Even if I did struggle, the Slack was always very helpful and quick with responses.
I thoroughly enjoyed the Python Advanced course from SheCodes. It was well-structured, and I appreciated the focus on data visualization. The final project involved creating a graph of internet users over several years, which was a fantastic real-world application of Python programming. A big thank you to Matt for developing another engaging course. I highly recommend the SheCodes Python Advanced course to anyone interested in expanding their Python skills. It’s valuable for both beginners and those looking to deepen their knowledge. 👩💻💻
Thanks to Matt for helping me understand python and formulating code for a functioning project!
Being a part of the SheCodes Foundation has been incredibly rewarding, and I am grateful for the opportunity to develop my coding skills. Our amazing instructor, Matthieu Delac, has made this journey even more enjoyable with his expertise and supportive teaching style. This journey has been a truly fruitful experience, filled with learning and growth. Thank you, SheCodes Foundation, for this incredible opportunity. I am thrilled to be part of such a fantastic community and look forward to continuing my learning journey.
When I first started on SheCodes I knew nothing about coding, and now i have created a landing page on my own. It is very informative and many thanks to Matt and the team for their guidance in this journey.
I enjoyed learning about Python although it was very challenging, but seeing the results was rewarding and Matt explains it very well. It takes time and patience, the Python workshop took the most to do, but I'm glad I was able to do it and complete it.
The instructor, Matt, explained everything so well which made it easier for a total beginner such as myself to comprehend the concepts in such a short space of time.
React was not easy! It had it's many challenges, but in a good way 😊 Thank you to the techinical team for always being avaliable to help in times of need 🫡. Thank you Matt, you are literally the best!
this was very challenging , i doubted myself most of the time honestly i'm still shocked that i did it thanks matt
Attending this career workshop was incredibly valuable. Matt's insights were spot-on and reignited my passion for coding, inspiring me to continue growing as an aspiring frontend developer. Highly recommended!
I have had a smooth experience in the SheCodes Basic workshop. I could not believe myself when I completed my first project and actually the code worked! It is an amazing place to be. Instructor Matt, your workshops are short, precise and easy to understand. This has made the journey to be a breeze for me. I have no regrets about spending my evenings learning and coding. If you are a lady, who would like to learn how to code, SheCodes is the place.
vanilla javascript was a really good experience for me, I'm so eager to continue Learning more. Thank you Matt and Team
The SheCodes Add-On workshop was an enriching experience that took my coding skills to the next level. Building on the fundamentals learned in SheCodes Basics, this workshop provided a deeper dive into HTML, CSS, and JavaScript, challenging me with new concepts and practical projects. Matt's guidance was invaluable, making complex topics understandable and enjoyable to learn. I'm proud of what I accomplished during the workshop and feel more confident in tackling advanced coding tasks. I highly recommend SheCodes to anyone ready to expand their coding knowledge in a supportive and engaging environment."
Amazing experience with the React add-on dictionary project, I am starting to really grasp the power behind using components. It was fun to experiment with different API and to understand the data behind it and utilize it for my application. Thanks to Matt Delac the instructor of SheCodes, and his team of expert help along the way, alot was made possible with making this application.
I love the way the material builds on itself. I usually pause or replay the lectures so I can try out Matthieu's examples, and the challenges and assignments for each unit really help me digest each unit without being an excessive burden. If you're learning any new language, it's not very effective to try to memorize thousands of words without context. You have to learn just a few and then use them to grasp the syntax and grammar. Once you have some practice assembling sentences, acquiring new words becomes much more easy and natural. Similarly, SheCodes lectures are short and action-packed, focusing on structure and syntax while we master just a few powerful tools at a time. Essentially, Matthieu teaches core skills so I can find and learn more tools on my own. I've learned so much in such a short period of time and really enjoyed it. I can't wait to see what the next few weeks hold!
I been in the medical field for the last 15 years but loss my passion for it but always had a passion for coding since high school. So I decided to make a change and start my coding journey with SheCodes! And this have been a great decision. The workshops are easy to navigate and understand. Matt is a great teacher.
I started my journey with SheCodes 2 years ago but was not able to move forward because, at the time, I did not have my ADHD diagnosis, and I was not able to focus during the classes. I finally got the treatment I needed and decided to give coding a second chance, which was my best decision. I enjoyed my journey, and the support from the SheCodes team was essential to my success. Matthieu Delac is a fantastic instructor, and the way he teaches is very dynamic. I can't wait to see what else I can learn from SheCodes and start my career as a developer!
When I enrolled for my first week on SheCodes Basics, I had some knowledge about web development but nothing close what I have learnt these past three weeks. I am excited to finally say that I have programmed my first project without a tutorial from Mr. Matt Delac playing in the background. I finally have something to brag about regarding tech. I can't wait for the next lesson.
Another great learning experience! Matt’s teaching ability is amazing. The course is very interactive and super fun. I would recommended to anyone looking to up skill themselves and learn code.
The experience with SheCodes is just great. I'm always just so excited to learn even when facing challenges along the way. Matts's easy explanations and easy examples, makes coding much easier to understand.
I enjoyed the workshop. Matt is such a good teacher. Everything was clear and straightforward, I learned so much from the Workshop. I highly recommend the workshop to all the women who want to start a career in coding.

Now, I feel confident in my ability to create responsive websites, and I'm excited to continue my journey in web development. Thank you, Matt and SheCodes team, for this amazing opportunity!
I honestly enjoyed my SheCodes Basics journey, though it hasn't been easy, but i have learned a lot. Thank you Matt.

The workshop was amazing, so informative, and beginner-friendly I enjoyed taking this course and can't wait to learn more. Thank you, Matt and SheCodes team You are doing an amazing job.
Wow!! I did it! After months of learning from SheCodes I finished the last course with React. It was amazing. The instructor Matthieu delac is a great instructor. And the SheCodes staff (techs) are amazing always there to help you out. Thank you SheCodes!!
I literally had no experience with any of the programming languages but Matt mabe very easy for, it sometimes get's difficult but totally worth my time
Started off with 0 knowledge and in 3 week i already feel like a Star! It is not easy on the first days as everything is foreign, with so much to grasp but the teacher/instructor Matt is exceptional in simplifying hard concept. The team is super helpful too, i never feel alone despite everything being virtual. I really appreciate this opportunity.
This Journey wasn't easy but trust me it was worth it. With all the challenges, homework, and then final project, I'm proud of the impact She-Codes has made in my life. The lessons were easy to grasp as well, a big shout-out to Mr. Matt for a Job well-done.
I had so much fun with this Basics Add-on course🤗🩷. I am so glad that I can finally add properties such as grids on a project. Thank you once again Matt for being such an amazing instructor😁!

Great addition to SheCodes Plus - Matt always explains complicated code to make it easy to understand.
Learning how to make my very own portfolio was really an amazing feeling, Matt and his team are the best especially when I was stuck on something. I really had fun creating this portfolio and I can't wait for more even though it will be my last one but I'm excited.
This was a good add-on to the basics course. Matt is an excellent teacher, and understanding the concepts and their functions could not have been any easier.
I first heard about SheCodes in a social media group and I decided to try. Was hesitant at first as I don't have any background in tech. As it turns out, it has been quite interesting doing Shecodes basics workshop. The workshops are clearly spelt out and Matt is a good teacher. I am so happy and am looking forward to learning more with SheCodes. Who knows I may end up becoming a frontend developer ☺️

I loved the supportive and collaborative environment, I'm now more confident in my coding abilities and have already started applying what I learned to my own projects. Thanks, Shecodes, for an amazing workshop experience!"
The SheCodes PLUS course was great! I feel like I learned a lot in a friendly way, as the lessons were so easy to follow. I would definitely recommend Matt and his SheCodes team to others seeking to improve their existing or acquire new coding skills.
I fell in love with SheCodes' courses! Thank you Matt 😉
My name is Whitney Reed. I'm from Mississippi, but now living in New Orleans, Louisiana. Back, in 2019 and in 2021, I had got in trouble. I lost custody of my daughter to my aunt and uncle in Mississippi. In 2022, I was into a relationship not too long after that and I wasn't happy with my life and the choices i made in it. in 2023, I, then, decided to moved to New Orleans. My goal was to do DoorDash with my car and saving up money, but i ran my car down and sold it. After using up my money and resources, I called a friend up for advice on the next move. She suggests a shelter, so I look one up. The second listing on Google was the New Orleans Mission. It's a faith-based homeless shelter that has an amazing 1 year discipleship that gets people learned about God and help you get back to him. After that, they help people get back in society, and help people get back with their families. I'm a graduate of the program and now into the transition stage, where I'm working full-time and working on a car and housing and hopefully, reuniting with my daughter. It's wonderful. While I was there, I was thinking about get back to school, especially in computer and technology. I already went to four colleges, but i dropped out of all four (mainly because of the discussions). One day, when I finally did my research, I came into SheCodes and signed up in November 2023 on the Black Friday sale. So far, I love the setup. I like how Matt explains each lesson so well. I definitely like Athena AI in answering my questions so well and also the people over at Slack as well. I wanna thank the people responsible at SheCodes for giving women the chance to learn how to code. I appreciate it!
I absolutely loved this Basics course, it gave me insight on what coding is about. I love the fact that it challenged me to really think and pay attention to what was being taught to me but at the same time I was having a lot of fun, getting to see the magic behind simple websites that we use on a daily basis. I am extremely excited to continue my journey with SheCodes!😁🙌 Matt is truly an incredible instructor and I want to thank him for creating these programs for women who want to break into the world of tech by learning coding!😁🙏
"SheCodes has been a life changing moment. I gained more knowledge and skills in Html, CSS and JavaScript. Thank you Matt for the exceptional curriculum and teachings. I am looking forward to learning more as a Junior developer."
I had a lot of fun building this dictionary. It was pretty challenging, but I am proud of what I accomplished. Thanks Matt and the team! :)
Learning the Basics-Add-On has been fun. Learning new other techniques and Thanks to Matt whom instructed the lessons very well and his team for helping when we are stuck.
I was introduced to SheCodes by a friend, being 44 years of age I was a bit skeptical to apply for the fear that I wasn't going to understand or grasp anything but boy oh boy was I wrong! Matt is such a great teacher now I know about html, CSS & JavaScript! Even when browsing or using social pages I understand and appreciate the work that went behind the scenes to present such immaculate webpages and interaction pages!
I enjoyed the lessons with Matt Delac very much and I believe day by day I am getting closer to reaching my goal. It would not be an exaggeration if I say that the community support that you receive, work like a magical bridge that connect us with our goals. I would like to add that I am very much grateful to She Codes Foundation for giving me this opportunity.
I thought coding was not my cup of tea until I found SheCodes. Matt is a really great teacher and the lessons are easy to follow. Each week we have to do assignments which make it clear that we really get the point of each lessons.
I have gained tremendous knowledge for the past 4 weeks and I am super grateful for this opportunity. Matt is such a great tutor. He made something that appears very complex to be easily understood.

SheCodes Basics has been a wonderful experience! Matt's course structure is very methodical and well-structured, and he explains complex tasks in an easy-to-understand way.
I was intimidated greatly when i first started coding. Thoughts of whether i really am capable and if i m not reaching far beyond what i can handle crept in too, but Matt really made it seem way too easy that I've developed a real love for creating and excitement.
I have thoroughly enjoyed learning the fundamentals of HTML, CSS, and JavaScript! Matt is a phenomenal teacher who is great at explaining new concepts in an interesting way through video format. I also find the Slack channels to be a useful resource for when I feel stuck. Most of all, I appreciate Matt's efforts to encourage his students to be resourceful when searching for answers.
I mastered advanced HTML and CSS, Bootstrap, responsive images, testing, SEO, and Figma. A standout experience was creating my portfolio, with Matt offering incredible support. I highly recommend this to anyone aiming to enhance their web development skills!
I enjoyed every bit of it! Extremely beginner- friendly. Easy enough to understand, but tasking enough to make you think a bit. Matt's explanations were very easy to understand making the task at hand really clear. Can't wait to begin other workshops!
The lessons are well structured , short videos that are easy to understand. the challenges are a big big way of practicing how to code and more so i am very grateful for how the she codes team is patient with you by adding the deadline extension to give you more room to learn. to finish, matt is an exemplary teacher. THANK YOU SO MUCH SheCodes😍.
I recently completed a coding workshop specifically designed for women, where I had the opportunity to learn HTML5, CSS3, JavaScript, and React.js. Throughout the course, I built 9 real-world projects that significantly enhanced my coding skills and confidence. Matt, our instructor, was exceptional—he broke down complex concepts into easy-to-understand steps, making the learning process seamless for a beginner like me. This workshop was a transformative experience, and I am grateful for the solid foundation it provided me in front-end development.
JavaScript was always a challenge for me to grasp, but Matt's approach made it much easier to understand. He broke down the concepts in a way that clarified the complexities of JavaScript. Even with my basic knowledge of HTML and CSS, this workshop was a fantastic opportunity to test my skills and create new projects. I highly recommend this workshop to anyone interested in starting their coding journey.
