Overall the help sheets and video explanations are very clear from Matt, learned a new world and found it interesting for sure. However, I do not like the platform Slack. I've had help today but I didn't even notice the answer until hours later, and the answer did not help me find a solution regardless. Slack is definitely not a simple platform to follow, it's confusing and overloaded with unnecessary messages from too many users. I submitted my final project, but I am not happy with a lot of things and even with google I could not find the solutions. I followed Matts advice and instructions but a lot of things were not working, even when writing multiple of times, refreshing pages, and writing them carefully while checking my notes. I didn't have so many problems with my last homework submission so I don't understand why this one was so hard to complete.
Concepts are broken down into bite size video lessons to allow for one or a few videos to be done at a time, depending on your schedule. It made it feel accessible to learn to a first time coder with no prior knowledge or experience of HTML, CSS, or JavaScript. Having said that, throughout the course you are expected to do your own Google search of items not covered in the course which I wasn't aware of at the beginning and found frustrating at times. I found answers to most of my questions on Slack having been asked by others before me. I would recommend this course to someone looking to learn the basics of computer coding.
Great workshop. Lots of stuff covered in it, super easy to understand, and leaves you wanting to learn more. Even doing the assignments is enjoyable: I'd put my head down, practiced everything I learnt and tried new things... and I think I could've stayed writing code for days!
I've learned so much in just 3 weeks! The assignments were fun, challenging, and super accessible. Matt is a great teacher. I discovered a passion for coding that I can't wait to keep pursuing!
I've always wanted to learn and understand coding languages but I thought it was out of my reach. This class is great for anyone who wants to understand the basic principles of HTML, CSS and Javascript. The team is there to support you and answer your questions along the way! I'm excited to take another class and dive more in depth into the coding world.
I absolutely recommend SheCodes - simple and clear structure, very easy to follow all the steps.
A smooth project guideline with clear explanation for a beginner like myself. Great experience to learn so much more 'behind-the-scene' of webpages that we see every day. There are frustrating moments where my codes are not functioning as I want them too but I always manage to get the help I need through slack 😄
Learning to code has always seemed intimidating to me but I'm so glad I finally took this course. Everything was broken down and explained really well and I had a great time. I will definitely be taking further SheCodes workshops in the future!
Matt is a great teacher! His explanations are easy to follow without being patronising (unlike some other online classes). Well worth the money and a great experience.
Had such a great time learning the basics of code with SheCodes. A very clear and informative programme, I have learnt so much already!
Highly recommended
SheCodes is an Awesome bootcamp. I loved the fact that I was taught enough to build a fully functional web app. Joao was always super helpful when i got stuck. Thanks SheCodes for giving me the confidence to continue on my Coding journey. Oh the things I will build!
I have wanted to learn to code for so long and had no idea where or how to start! I tried so many of the free online courses but always felt like I had walked into the theatre half way through the film. With SheCodes, I feel like I arrived early! After 3 weeks I understand the basics and the best part is, I am having SO.MUCH.FUN!
SheCodes is the best! Highly recommend to anyone in all stages of learning computer programming. Matt's videos are great and easy to understand. Can't wait for the next workshop!
Great Course!
I was so impressed what I have learned in just two week! I cannot wait to sign up for SheCodes Plus and am looking forward to applying my new coding skills at my job and in my personal life!
I absolutely recommend these workshops! It's been an exhilarating 3 weeks and I am astonished that I now understand how to build a page after such a short period of time and minimal experience. I appreciate being able to move at my own pace and the support throughout from the SheCodes staff has been wonderful. I've signed up for more and look forward to getting started!
This coding course is designed to be very engaging and hands-on. I utterly enjoyed the process of problem-solving and troubleshooting.
I had tons of fun in the 3-week workshop! I learned so much and it was presented to me in an organized way so that it wasn't overwhelming. Matt explains things really well and I'll definitely be looking into the SheCodes Plus React course in the future.
Loved this course! I'm a beginner in coding but have dabbled a little bit here and there because I've been interested for a while and this course absolutely nailed it! Matt is so clear and explains everything in such a simple way so it's easy for a beginner to understand and it actually makes sense. Definitely enjoyed this course and currently planning on doing one of the advanced workshop because this is definitely something I can see myself taking forward and what an amazing forum to do so! 100% recommend.
Highly recommended
Matt did a fantastic job at teaching each lesson with the beginners mindset to coding! He definitely helped me understand the coding properties by breaking it down step by step throughout each lesson and within a span of 3 weeks! I feel like there's still more I'd love to learn from him and I would definitely recommend, thank you again!
I discovered SheCodes through an add that I saw on youtube. When I went on the website, I was astonished at the quality of the content, how well it was organized and the simplicity of it. I didn't know what to expect at first because I had no previous experience with coding, but I wanted to try something new that would be challenging enough to bring me out of my comfort zone, so I went ahead and choose to do the 3 Weeks Workshop Program. Now let me tell you; it was the best decision I could have ever made! I never thought that I would learn this much in only 3 weeks !!! Matt is an excellent instructor, I'm really grateful that I gave Shecodes a try & I would definitely recommend SheCodes to anyone who wants to test the water with coding.
I really enjoyed this course. I learned alot and it showed me that coding isn't actually as complicated as I used to think it was 😁❤🤩
First, I would like to say that I have no coding experience whatsoever. I just graduated from college in May with a Kinesiology/Physical Education degree. My intention was to coach basketball at a University, or the public school system by the time August came. Second, while I was "sheltered in" due to COVID-19, I began to think about the future and what skill I needed to learn to keep myself valuable in the marketplace. Thanks to YouTube's algorithms that led me to a black woman who is a software engineer, and research about how the tech field will experience a 28% growth between the years 2018-2028, I decided that coding was it. I searched the net, came across SheCodes, and thought "Go for it". Lastly, for me, this journey into the unknown has been exciting, frustrating, challenging, and conquering. I am learning so much and seeing it manifest before my eyes. I look forward to continuing on to SheCodesPlus and React.
Wonderful experience!! Reignited my love for coding and has given me a more concrete career direction. The videos were well structured and insightful, and the pace was more than manageable. Would highly recommend this course!
I would recommend this course to anyone who wants to change career and learn programming/marketing language. The course is very well structured, the teacher Matt explain everything in a detailed and calmly way that promotes to the student a sequential and structured learning. For absolute begginers the course is 5 stars! In principle, i will continue with the advanced courses because i want to add value to my career. Thank you! Cheers!
I recommend this workshop to everyone who is curious about coding, but is afraid it could be too complicated if you dont have a tech background. Just try it! You will be fascinated by the benefits in your daily work.
I really enjoyed this course. The project was fun and creative. I found that the courses and resources were helpful.
SheCodes was a great introduction to coding. The lessons were engaging and easy to follow, but I still felt like a learnt a lot while doing them. The exercises, homework, and project kept me accountable and were a great way to prove to myself that the material was sinking in. I loved it!
I am truly happy to have decided to apply for this course. In just 3 weeks I was able to learn so much and in such a fun and interesting way, not boring at all! 😄 In every video lesson, Matt explains everything in a very simple and efficient way and the challenges that he gives in each lesson are so worthy because you only learn by doing and you learn even more when things don’t work and you have to find by yourself what was wrong, knowing that you also can ask for help anytime you want. I am very proud of my final project, it was so fulfilling to be able to build from scratch a project related to something you love. 🐶 I am looking forward to continuing my experience with SheCodes Plus! 👩🏼💻➕
All 3 SheCodes' courses gave me the knowledge and tools to go ahead and finally learn how to code using everyday mark-up languages plus React which is currently an industry favorite! I am continuing my journey using the documentation that I can look at for as long as I need and continuing to code on my own. I feel confident that I can start applying for junior web developer positions with the idea that I can learn on the job with the tools I was taught by Matt and team!
I have been interested in learning how to code for a couple years now but didn't think I would be any good at it. This course gave me the confidence to learn and it was so fun to see how much progress I was able to make after only three weeks.
This workshop was definitely a step-up from the introductory one before. It was a gruelling 6 weeks but as usual, Matt was very thorough in his explanation as he coaches us step-by-step in the process of creating our own weather application. João is a life saver as he is always there on Slack to help us whenever problems arises. He is always super patient and very in-depth in his explanations. I find myself learning a lot more outside of class through my conversations with him. Definitely recommend this workshop to anyone who wants to progress further into the areas of HTML, CSS and JavaScript.
This has been the best 3 months during the quarantine. Picking up this skill from beginning to end, I can see how much I've grown. Who knew that in 3 months I can learn to code? I sure didn't, but I did it!
I love this workshop. Matt is an awesome instructor. The lessons are very easy to follow and very well-organized. This workshop was perfect introduction to coding. 😀
I enjoyed this course so much! It is easy to understand and you are able to build your own landingpage within 3 weeks only - amazing!
SheCodes is by far the best coding workshop experience I've ever had. The videos are succinct and easy to understand and the challenges along the way are a great check on learning. In just 3 weeks I was able to build my own landing page using HTML, CSS, and Javascript and had a lot of fun doing it!
I really enjoy the course and I highly recommend it. It has been a lot of fun. Thanks so much ! 😀
It was a great overview for a beginner. Thanks!
Due to the Coronavirus situation I had enough time to think how I would like to spend my time. Searching for coding courses my attention was captivated by a course for women. I said I should give it a try. So, I graduated the first course "Introduction to coding"(where I learnt the basic of HTML, CSS, Java Script) and it seemed to arouse my curiosity more. And now, I just finished #SheCodes Plus, 8 weeks of great experience, of learning new technologies (API, Github, Hosting, Bootstrap) and meeting so many smart women. Thank you #SheCodes for everything you taught us, thank you @Matt Delac, @Joao, @Lexi. PS: #SheCodes React here I come! 💪🤩🥳
SheCodes was an unique experience for me. I've built upon none previous knowledge at all, and it was really fun! The challenges and projects were so entertaining , I'll definitely continue with SheCodes Plus!
Very good course for beginners with helpful videos explaining to a high standard! CodePen and VS Code are great platforms to learn on and I have gained lots of great knowledge about HTML, CSS and javascript. I am now seeking to learn harder software languages in more back-end developing👩💻!!! The course could be improved by providing, optional, harder challenges for those wanting to take their skills to the next level🔥!!!
I highly recommend SheCodes. It is a lot of fun going through the challenges. Concepts are explained well and help is always available if needed. Thank you so much!
Had so much fun completing my first ever coding course. Matt is a great teacher and all the lessons planned very well which make them easy to follow. Thank you for this platform and everything you do.
I can't believe I built my weather app for the Final Project from scratch! SheCodes Plus covers some pretty complex topics but the bitesize course structure, resources and community support system means help is always at hand. The course also gives insights to some of the main industry tools and repositories which I will definitely be referring to (and hopefully contributing to!) in the future!
Had so much fun completing SheCodes Plus - it really pushed me to build on the lessons Matt provides and make use of other online resources to build both a page that fitted the brief and expressed my creativity! Can't wait to build on this knowledge with SheCodes React!
It may have taken me 3 weeks and two days to complete the SheCodes Workshop, but this experience has taught me an insurmountable amount about tackling my fears! Each lesson pushed my knowledge in code just the right amount, to where I could then knock out the challenges bit by bit. I attribute my success as well to, Lexi D., and other members of the SheCodes.io Slack community, and especially because I was experiencing setbacks coming from a place of doubt as I reached the half-way point of the course. But, the fast responses to my inquiries as to why it was that my code wasn't working, quickly got me back into tempo, (hence the additional two days), and eventually having the confidence to face the dysfunctional coding mishaps on my behalf. After viewing their online commercial, I was a bit hesitant at first to consider spending the $99 that course would cost, however after the free live-session workshop which I joined, this solidified my stance once and for all to overcome my fears and learn how to code! It truly is amazing to see that after three years following my initial attempt to complete an HTML course, SheCodes Workshop not only aided in my knowledge base of HTML, but provided me with a solid understanding of Javascript, and CSS basics, and most of all, a motivating community--which overall factored into my successful completion of the workshop course. My advice for anyone considering to opt for SheCodes is that, realize it's a worthwhile investment that lasts a lifetime. The skills learned in this workshop shows a glimpse of an individual's forbearance, needed to succeed in life's challenges, no matter how daunting they seem to be at first.
It's not easy to work a full-time job and learn a new skill, but Shecodes really helped me understand a little bit of the world of coding in the most simple way they could teach! I own a big thanks to Matt for the awesome classes, easy to follow along, and to Lexi, for the big support and understanding!
Matt is awesome !!!! I enjoyed how his lessons are laid out. I have done some stuff on my own before with little success. I did feel that it helped things click a little more. I am excited to move onto PLUS. I feel SheCodes is just what I was looking for. Thank you for this platform and everything you all do.

Learning to code from SheCodes was such an amazing and fun experience! The workshops are very easy to follow and you also have plenty of opportunities to build your skills. I am so glad I found this program and I highly recommend it to everyone! You will definitely not regret taking it!
I learned so much with SheCodes! Coding itself teaches you to finish what you started, be very specific with your syntax, pay attention to details and you get to work on your logical reasoning, without compromising on aesthetics, which I appreciate a lot. I would highly reccomend this to a beginner!
I highly recommend this course! I did not think that it would be possible for me to learn so much in such a short period of time and have fun along the way. :)
What I love about the SheCodes program is that the videos only cover a few concepts at a time making it easy to fully understand with fun challenges. They even provide additional resources and show you reliable websites to make you comfortable with researching new concepts or debugging code independently. The SheCode technical assistants and other SheCoders in the Slack community respond quickly and are so helpful and supportive. Your creativity truly takes your code to the next level. I am so excited to continue my experience with SheCodes Plus! 💕💻💪🧠
This was an extremely intuitive program. Everything was taught in a way that was easy to understand, but also very easy to build off of. I feel very prepared to proceed to the next workshop and am excited to continue learning with Matt!
With an easy to follow curriculum and a take it step-by-step instructor like Matt, learning how to code was made fun and easy with constant support via slack. With constant support from others in the course and instructors, this workshop has really opened my eyes to insane possibilities as a developer. Can not wait to learn more and master what I can via SheCodes.
SheCodes has been a great experience start to finish! I'm feeling more confident in my abilities and looking forward to the next course!
Easy to follow lessons! Looking forward to SheCodes+ 🤓
This website is very helpful. I loved this website. I can understand everything easily. I recommend this website to other people to take advantage. I love it.
After completing the 3-weeks workshop with SheCodes, I knew I could learn more and do more! The Plus program is great. It has the same great style of tutorials and pace, but with so much more content. SheCodes allowed me to call myself a programmer and actually think like one!
This is my second course with SheCodes. It is incredible to see the improvment from the last course. João is very patient, he's a great help.
This was an amazing experience, especially learning webpage styling for the first time. It's a great feeling to actually see the code you've created come to life.
What a wild couple of months! 🤩 I never thought learning how to code would be so much fun! This course was a great overview of all of the parts to build an application, I feel confident enough to head out on my own and experiment on something new! Thank you SheCodes Team for the support! Looking forward to React ✌️
I have learned so much and have met some amazing ladies!!! This program helped me build a strong foundation to build upon.
It was so easy to follow. It was so much fun can't wait to continue on to next next workshop and in general.
Highly recommended
Loved the course! Excited to continue in SheCodes+ and enhance my knowledge and skills in coding.
SheCodes was an amazing experience. The lessons are bite-sized and comprehensive. Matt is a great instructor and help is available to you at any moment over Slack. I loved this course and will use my brand new foundational knowledge to further my expertise with front-end web dev.
Learning from SheCodes was exciting and inspiring. Something that seemed difficult at first, became so easy thanks to an enlightening approach and their great method of learning through small steps. I am very grateful to have chosen this course.
challenging and rewarding. becoming more curious.
I would highly recommend SheCodes. I can really notice the difference in my coding skills before and after SheCodes. SheCodes made it easy for me to understand and use Javascript, which was something I was really looking forward to when I joined. Now I'm confident to keep on learning and practicing Javascript. I really love the challenges and support I received in the slack chat. Now, on to SheCodes plus!
I enjoyed every step of this course.
This course consisted of easy to follow steps that helped me create a full page website. I appreciate the direct approach the instructor took. Each lesson built on the next. At the end of the course, I feel very confident using HTML, CSS, and basic JavaScript functions.
Easy to follow.
SheCodes was a great introductory workshop! I am attending University of Washington's coding bootcamp in the Fall, and wanted to take a prep course - and this workshop made me feel super confident because I have the basics down :) Matt is also an amazing instructor, he goes into details on WHY and HOW and not just "here's the code". The challenges were great because they reinforced the knowledge! 10/10 would take this workshop again!
This course built on my previous coding knowledge. Matt explained it understandably and calmly. The structure of the course was clear and logical. I look forward to the following courses from SheCodes!
This course refreshed and built on my previous knowledge of coding, it also challenged me to be more creative with the languages and functionality. I really enjoyed the course and will continue on the other modules.
I have learned a lot throughout SheCodes, and I'm excited to keep learning and expanding my knowledge! SheCodes empower women in the teh world which is one of the many reasons why I decided to join! They are friendly and always willing to help! I highly recommend it!
Matt explains the process of building code in a clearly and the challenges provided, unlike a lot of courses I've tried, really require that you think through what to do rather than copying exactly what the video said.
I had absolutely zero coding experience prior to the workshop, and it couldn't have been easier to follow. I can't wait to learn more!
SheCodes is amazing! For years I tried to learn how to code with very unsuccessful results but within a matter of weeks, my skills have grown to a whole different level.
I've really enjoyed the SheCodes course and feel like I've learnt so much in a matter of weeks. It's been a great introduction to coding and I'd highly recommend the course to anyone who wants to learn how to code!
This is been a super interesting crash course into web development - would highly recommend!
"Shecodes is the best workshop I have ever been to." The lessons are very well explained and the challenges are very good to practice.
Excellent course! Everything is explained extremely clearly in manageable increments. Personally, I feel that I could perhaps have covered more material in the 3-week period, but I understand that the advantage of the current format is that is remains highly accessible, even for people who have very little knowledge of information technology. I also feel that I currently have enough understanding of coding terminology to continue learning on my own.
This workshop was exactly what I was looking for! Great way to give a little taste of how coding works, with a well organized and clear learning method!
The three-week course was a perfect intro into coding. The projects built on one another and taught me how to examine elements of webpages I use to understand how they work. The process was easy to follow and while I still have a lot to learn, this gave me a great starting point to go from!
This course has been totally worthy for me. I used to have very basic mistakes because I didn't understand how everything worked. Now I see myself capable of doing new projects and I am eager to keep learning
With SheCodes I learnt the basic of HTML, CSS and JavaScript while having lot of fun! The classes are easy to follow and give you the flexibility to adjust them to your schedule. The challanges at the end of each class helped truly understand the concepts and get some practical experience. I highly recommend SheCodes to everyone who wants to learn how to code!
Highly recommended
I can't still believe I could learn so much in the space of a week, let alone three weeks. I'm so grateful for this workshop. Imagine what I'll be able to accomplish in the next few months. This is awesome. If you need a place to learn quickly with great support system. SheCodes is the right place to be.
I was curious to find out how an online class with flexible learning hours would actually make me learn coding properly. The learning material is easy to understand and the Slack community a great place to ask for support. The homework and project deadlines help a lot to keep myself accountable. I'm excited to continue the journey and learn more advanced coding skills!
Matt is a great instructor! Lessons are approachable and easy to understand -- but also quite challenging, for someone who has no background on coding. If you get stuck, there is always someone ready to help you. It made starting to code a lot less scary. Most importantly, it was a lot of fun! I can't wait to learn more.
The SheCodes Workshop has been an amazing experience so far. I have built upon previous knowledge that I had and have learned so much more. I can't wait to get started with SheCodes Plus!
Very easy to learn & very clear instructions on what to do. If anything is confusing, you're able to get help almost immediately.
I couldn't have imagined coding being taught this well anywhere else! Great explanations and dedicated team 👍🏻.
I've learned quite a bit with SheCodes the past 3 weeks, I can't wait to do SheCodes Plus next!
Coding is intimidating. I was a complete beginner but Matt immediately removed the skepticism surrounding my ability to learn to code. Matt's way of teaching is clear and very understandable! Plus there was slack to help out with minor issue I faced throughout. Overall, it is a well executed course and I enjoyed every bit of it. Thank you so much!
SheCodes makes learning code easy and fun. The classes are set up in small increments so that you're consistently engaged in each and every lesson!
