I've really loved taking part in the SheCodes Basics course. The course is engaging with its concise tutorials, where you can put what you've learnt to use straight away in the exercises. The format of the course has helped me to hold myself accountable, I love the deadlines and knowing that I'm working towards a final project where I can put everything I've learnt to use! I've been wanting to start my coding journey for 12+ months but have been stuck in tutorial purgatory until I found SheCodes. I feel that I'm really making progress and the community on Slack makes asking for help, and engaging with the SheCodes community, very easy.
This has been a fantastic introduction into the world of coding. The lessons are clearly organised, with interesting activities throughout. I am very pleased with my final project, putting into practice everything I have learnt so far. I have thoroughly enjoyed every minute and can't wait for the next project with SheCodes!
Lots of new information. An interesting project to create your own portfolio. New tasks for styling website with CSS and Bootstrap. The most impotant and the most interesting thing was to create a responsive and SEO friendly website.
And with this final submission, I have completed all available SheCodes workshops! 🥲All previous SheCodes grads should take this responsive course. I'm taking all of the knowledge I've gotten from this course and I'm going to be going back through my previous projects from Plus and React and retooling them with the info I've gained through this workshop. As always, Matt explains things in a way that it's easy to understand and implement. If there are ever other SheCodes workshops in the future, I will definitely be taking those too.
This was such a fun adventure into the world coding! I feel like I've begun learning a new language - that of computers, which has allowed me to design my own projects! I had never done any coding prior and the intro course was easy to follow and explore HTML, CSS, and JavaScript. I love the mission of this company and support their endeavors to get more women into coding. I feel confident that the skills I learned here will help me launch new career opportunities in tech!
It was fun to learn about coding! The course makes it easy to understand, and its nice to have homework to hand in on a certain date, and a final project! I really enjoyed this, and will recommend it to anyone that wants an insight in the coding-world!
Loved it! It's an intensive course and requires consistent work, I had to take a break due to work and found myself needing to revisit the entire course before I could proceed. Great teaching style, easy to follow but I enjoyed the extra research and thought one had to apply to complete the challenges, homework and the project!
Loved this course! I am completely brand new to coding and after just three weeks I feel so empowered! I'm already seeing these skills come in handy in my personal projects and in my work! I can't wait to keep going and continue learning!
Such an amazing journey it's been for me, from learning the fundamentals of Web Dev, to Vanilla JS and now React. After so many frustrating and expensive online tutorials and courses, SheCodes was a breath of fresh air for someone with no coding background like me. Matt is a fantastic teacher, he really knows his stuff! Every workshop is well designed and a lot of thought was put into these. Concepts are conveyed with examples and described in a simple and easy fashion, so you don't feel overwhelmed. The lessons are super easy to follow, and homework and projects are great to put everything into practice by yourself. Couldn't recommend more!
SheCodes Responsive was super informative! I loved learning more about Bootstrap, how to use Flexbox, and ways to make my sites responsive and SEO friendly. It's encouraged me to revisit previous projects and make updates that reflect what I've just learned. Looking forward to starting SheCodes React!
I look forward to my SheCodes lessons every day! I still have another workshop after this and I'm already sad about it ending. The SheCodes format makes challenging concepts easier to learn and provides so much support and external resources. The projects are practical and provide a diverse range of skills to show potential employers. I was intimidated to start learning new coding skills from ground zero, but now I feel empowered and excited to learn more. Thank you, SheCodes!
I can't recommend this course enough!! Matt is such a great teacher with everything explained so clearly and I've come out of the course with 2 great projects and a wealth of new skills. I'm now excited to continue learning more and hopefully soon land a career in the tech industry!
It was hard to work on the projects but I learned so much about React! Super excited about the last course from SheCodes!
Very engaging content and easy instructions to follow even with more complex topics, it is very well explained. It gives a "real-life" coding experience. The final project to work on is a great example with a lot of possibilities and challenges to try and learn. I really enjoyed this course, I gained a lot of practical experience and so much motivation.
Highly Recommend This Workshop! I don't have a background in programming/web development at all but I was able to follow along and recreate all of the challenges, homework assignments and the project. Matt is a great instructor!
Learning how React works was very fun and interesting. The algorithms of loopings were quite new for me. The projects that are developed during the course are useful and fun, they are well guided and the developers have room for own investigation and creativity. Thank you!
Very easy to follow and the project was very enjoyable, fun and challenging.
Great way to kick start your interest into coding without being overwhelmedI liked being challenged by revising the lessons regularly and the projects were a good reinforcement of what we learnt.
The React workshop was by far the most challenging thing, but also the most fun part of my journey so far. It was full of hours of trying to do the same thing different ways and it failing, as well as the joys of finally figuring out what I wanted to do and having the rush of making a part of the app work well. I recommend this workshop to those that are fine with failing twenty to thirty times before succeeding, because you will hit many walls, at least I did. I will continue what I learned in React and will further hone my skills with other projects.
I had a great time with this course and with Matt as the teacher. He does a great job breaking things down and using the right words to make terms easily understandable. The challenges assigned correlates with what we learned prior so being able to apply what I've learned on the challenges and project made me more comfortable with coding.
Incredibly fun, pushes you creatively with every project
I really enjoyed both the weather and dictionary projects, and was able to use all my new knowledge from this workshop.
I am always up for a coding challenge but this step by step instruction with Matt was so simple to follow. I feel so much more confident in my coding after taking this workshop. I'm looking forward to creating more projects in the future with what I've learned with SheCodes :)
This was a great intro to JS and working with APIs! Pretty easy to follow, and challenging enough to be interesting. I had a lot of fun working on my final project, and I'm eager to learn more about React and responsive development now.
I really enjoyed this 3 week workshop! At first I wasn't sure how well I'd be able to cope with the number of lessons and challenges there were to complete, in addition to the homework. But the lessons are short, to the point and extremely informative and in the end I thoroughly enjoyed working through the challenges and designing my final project! I would definitely recommend anyone thinking about signing up to just go for it! You won't regret it!
Once again, I have really enjoyed learning with SheCodes. This workshop picks up a really important topic, responsiveness, and demystifies it, bringing some good tips and nice examples of how to approach it. I also like the fact that it has a portfolio as final project. So overall a nice learning experience and a good place to start and make some sense of responsiveness and basic SEO tips.
I really enjoyed this Project. I have wanted to create a portfolio site for some time and this really gave me the push I needed to do it. I really enjoyed learning about responsive design and it really added to my knowledge base. I am very proud that I now have my own site.
SheCodes Plus was a bigger challenge with new layers of complexity. After finishing the weather app project, the feeling is amazing seeing the final results. With all the support from the SheCodes team, it has been smoother sailing.
I really LOVED taking the SheCodes React course! It gave me all the tools I needed to build an app from the beginning to the end, using everything I learned in SheCodes Basics and Plus, in addition to learning how to streamline all my code in React. I love this method of learning, with Matt's videos in which he explains and shows the whole process, and also the challenges and homeworks, that allowed me to practice and learn, and also prepared me to the final project. I'm looking forward to getting on SheCodes Responsive!
I am so happy I finished the advanced Plus workshop. It was fun and challenging, I highly recommend it! ✨ With this course, Matt has given me a profund close up to HTML, CSS and JavaScript; considering that 2 months ago I had no idea of what coding was, and now I can make a fully functional project! Amazing! I now feel confident to use this new knowledge as a UX Designer. 🚀 Definitely will continue to expand my knowledge in programming. Kudos to the team on Slack! they are a fundamental part for the students and the bugs we sometimes cannot fix on our project 🙌
Great experience!!! This 2nd workshop really took things to the next level and gave me a lot of additional knowledge. I really feel more confident with Javascript. The weather app project is a good start for my portfolio and the team is always ready to help when needed.
It was really helpful to take this course after completing the other three SheCodes workshops! This course really helped pull all the information together and made me feel a lot more confident in formatting my projects and keeping them responsive to a variety of devices. There are some really helpful tips in this course and creating the portfolio was essential for me and it helped to have all of my previous SheCodes projects to display! Now I've officially completed all 4 workshops and and I easily say, it was a lot of hard work, but was definitely worth it! The team is very helpful and are there to help and guide you through the process.
This course gave me a way better understanding on how react components are created and communicate with each other, than when I tried to learn React by myself. Even though some parts were tricky to follow, especially when a different API needs to be used than the one displayed in the course, I really enjoyed completing the challenges and both of the final projects.
I knew nothing about React before this course, and now I am a huge fan. As someone who tries to keep things organized, I liked the efficiency of building UI components into a huge library. I can see why more and more developers are using it! While this course was a challenge, it was one worth taking. I'm glad that SheCodes added a second project to this course because I felt more confident the second time around and I had a lot of fun creating it. I'm so proud to add two new projects to my portfolio.
It was a great experience building a responsive website and also a great opportunity to build a portfolio website which I can always update with my newest projects.
This was an awesome extension of the SheCodes work I've already done. Not only was I able to get back into coding in a motivated way, but it was doing a project that will really benefit me in the future.
It was a big adventure, this coding course! And I'm really proud I managed the project. It was challenging, fun and exciting.
SheCodes was great! I don't think I'll end up going into a job where coding is needed but I will absolutely continue to do it in my free time! I think it is so much fun and I loved learning how each language worked. It was nice to see how much I understood and could figure out on my own once I started the Final Project!
SheCodes Plus has been amazing at the very least, I had a lot of fun while learning valuable coding skills and working on the final project. There have been times when I felt stuck and frustrated but the community here at SheCodes is so so helpful and supportive and it is sure to get you back on track. This is the best investment I have done so far and I can't be more proud! I am very excited to start the React workshop!
It was my first experience in coding and I found it very engaging and interesting. The way information is presented is accessible for complete beginners.The short lessons with challenges were very useful and helpful and I really enjoyed working on the final project. I am looking forward to a more advanced course.
I really enjoyed this class. It was really cool to be able to do this class with other women across the world! I loved the workshops and brushing up on my html/css skills while also learning to combine that with javascript. I am super proud of my final project and excited to learn more about coding!
Very nice and exciting project. It helped me to sink into the coding world. The tasks were tricky sometimes, but it still was fun.
This workshop is a really good introduction to React. Matt even updated the react workshop, so that there are two projects to choose from. Or you can do both!
Not going to lie, it was a bit of a struggle for me to grasp how React works at first, but with each challenge, it all came together and actually became a lot of fun. I was so excited to see there was not one, but two projects to work on for this course. And as usual, the SlackChat provided a lot of support and help whenever I got a little stuck. Thank you Matt (and Joao) again for another great workshop!
Loved learning the basics for building websites! This class was so much fun. I loved the challenges and really enjoyed the final project! Thanks Matt and SheCodes team for helping make this training so friendly for beginners.
I have really enjoyed the SheCodes Plus course. I think that it is really well structured and it allows you to learn comfortably at your own pace with weekly deadlines to keep you on track. The videos are very clear and easy to follow and it's pretty incredible how much you learn in such a short space of time and on one project. Definitely a good springboard to start from!
I am probably like many people who tried to learn how to build a website by picking up bits and bobs of knowledge and examples of code here and there through various means including online tutorials. I really struggled with this approach and building something, like I had to for a couple of university projects, tended to be quite frustrating. With SheCodes I finally found a method to learn in a structured way where each step builds logically on the previous steps. Now that I have finished the basics course I can't wait to get on with SheCodes Plus and React 🥳🤓
SheCodes is a brilliant way to begin coding at your own pace. It's not intimidating, the processes are clear, and the support network is strong. I'm really looking forward to working on more professional and complex projects with SheCodes and beyond!
I've really enjoyed learning the basics of coding, everything I've learned so far has encouraged me to sign up to the next course and learn more! Each lesson is short and concise and details everything you should need to know to complete the homework and project. Loved it!
SheCodes Plus was a fantastic program beginning to end. The project was interesting and the instructions were clear and organized. Its so exciting to look back at my SheCodes project in comparison to my Plus project to see how ive grown as a programmer! I look forward to React!
My first experience in coding. And it went pretty great! I enjoyed all the lessons, challenges and projects. This is a great first step into the coding world! 🤩
Another amazingly structured and well thought out course by SheCodes! On behalf of all students- I hope that you continue to make even more courses! Having started with the introductory course I have now completed all 4 courses on offer so far and I can honestly say that I have learnt so much in each one of them and continue to feel challenged 💪🏼. This course also came at a perfect time when I really wanted to start making my projects responsive! Thank you SheCodes!
Thanks, Matt to give me the project task and explain all the components in detail. I am proud of finishing this project and wish to win some attention from HR.
London-based and work in project management for a charity.
I really enjoyed working on this project because it was a lot easier than React but still challenging at some points. And it looks really cool! I am thrilled I have my personal portfolio with four projects that I can show the world. Thanks for everything!
This SheCodes course was a great starting point to learn about HTML, CSS and JavaScript and also gives you the chance to explore different ways you can use them through the final project. Super stoked to learn the basics and am keen to develop my skills further!
I really enjoyed working on the projects. The lessons were explained very well.
SheCodes does it again. Another great workshop. When I finished my React workshop and worked on other coding projects I really felt like my responsive design needed some work, so I was thrilled when this workshop got introduced. Matt [as always] is a fantastic teacher and this workshop has improved my skills as a designer of ten-folds.
As a Computer Science major this really helped me find my love for coding again and I loved how free I was to do whatever I want and not have to follow a strict assignment as I would in school. I can see myself just playing around with what I learned as a new hobby now because I can see how I can put my own interests and combine them like I did with my final project.
😎Happy to have completed this project and to apply these skills forward to some of my own projects.
Another great online course from SheCodes! Thank you Matt and the SheCodes team for helping and encouraging me to learn. Although we worked on a very specific project in SheCodesPlus, I felt I had the opportunity to explore my interests, take chances, experiment, and build the foundation for future learning. I'm looking forward to more!
I really enjoyed this course, the way the lessons are split into fast, straight to the point videos is great! Also, having challenges and a project to work on is extremely helpful for people that "learn by doing".
SheCodes was a blast! I was hesitant to hand in my final project, knowing the course would be over once I did. Matt is a great teacher, and the Slack program was a big help too. I learnt a lot from other students, and feel confident in my abilities with what was taught. I'm excited to change career paths and continue my learning! Thank you for helping more women to code.
I am so happy that this workshop has been added! There were a lot of new discoveries and resources to help with creating a professional site. This course has certainly elevated the skills/techniques I have already learned. I definitely feel I can push myself further with my final project and will continue to work on it. Thank you to Matt and the SheCodes team for all your help and guidance.
I was hesitant at first but I finally decided to give it a try cause 1) it kept popping up as ads on YouTube or a game I was playing 2) I wanted to try something new, for myself, that didn't take up too much of my time from my 16 and 7 year old boys, both with disabilities. Surprisingly, it IS how they say it is. Only a few hours a week and anyone, I mean anyone, can do it. I had no knowledge of coding what-so-ever. But I really enjoyed doing the challenges and the project. He warns you that you won't understand a lot but at the same time it makes sense if you understand how to use the tools he gives. My advice to anyone giving it some thought, if you have a few hours to spare a week, then just go for it. And try not to overthink anything cause there is nothing to overthink. You have the help of others at your finger tips. Yes, it can be frustrating at times (nothing comes without frustration) but it's all worth it in the end.
One more time, this course was amazing! Happy to code, not one project but two! Each one project, we have the basic concepts to start and learn but at same time is open to get more creative and develop more features and test our limitions! And don't forget the support! Amazing people: João, Matt, Daniela that help us and make our lives ease when we don't get why our code doesn't work! Thank you guys! I'm so glad to be part of SheCodes family!
This was such a great course! It gave a really great understanding in how to use React and being able to make two projects really helped to consolidate everything that we had learned in the earlier weeks.
This was a great course - so important to understand how to build responsive sites. Easy to follow, great lessons and challenges, and a great final project that you can use to showcase your work.
Once again, SheCodes has given me the confidence & tools I need to continue my coding journey! Matt is a wonderful instructor, giving you all the information needed to complete your projects + gaining the ability & groundwork to create your own. I'd highly recommend this workshop to anyone interested & look forward to continuing my personal journey with the SheCodes React & Responsive workshops.
Great teaching! so looking forward to the next few projects & challenges! 😁
I highly recommend the SheCodes course! The structure of the course is perfect and I learnt so much in a very short time! The final project was much fun and I was really proud of myself about what I've built from scratch. I am really looking forward to go deeper into coding! Thanks to Matt and the whole SheCodes - Team! 😊
So much fun and the easiest way I've ever tried to learn how to code! I'll definitely keep learning html & javascript even though I've finished the final project.
Having done a few short coding courses in the past, I am so glad that I chose to do learn to code with SheCodes! Well paced learning and super helpful support team who are always on hand to help. Matt is awesome and the slow down/ speed up feature is super useful. Definitely feel a great sense of achievement after submitting my final project for SheCode Basic. Look forwards to more learning in SheCodes Plus!
SheCodes was the best option that I could choose in the past 3 weeks. I was having web development at the college but I was struggling a lot to understand javascript. But in this platform, everything is possible to learn! I'm so proud to see my final project done in less than a day! Thanks, SheCodes Team!
This was a great way to get started with coding, really like the projects.
I'm so grateful to have found SheCodes! Matt is an excellent instructor. The lessons are clear and concise and the projects are fun and challenging. If you want to get started with coding, I highly recommend SheCodes! I look forward to continuing my coding education with the next SheCodes workshop! Thank you!
It took a lot of thinking but everything I learned from Week 1-2 was everything I needed to be successful with the project!
I had so much fun in this workshop. The final project is challenging but enjoyable since you build the site as you work on each lesson. Matt is a great instructor. This course is for anyone looking into extending their coding skills. Looking forward to the next workshop "React" :)
Continuing my coding journey with the SheCodes Responsive workshop as soon as it was available was a no-brainer for me 😀. I enjoyed every workshop on this platform and would recommend it to anyone who is curious about coding or wants to increase their career opportunities. I started from scratch, with zero coding knowledge and although there are some tricky parts (hello JavaScript! 👋) I feel like I've learned so so much during the last weeks (or rather months 😃). Can't wait for more workshops and projects to come!
I have always picked up new systems very easy so thought why not try coding. I do not regret it! It has been great to learn, be challenged and create. Matt explains everything very clear and if you are ever in doubt or get stuck, there are numerous hint and tips in every video and you have a great community that can help you! It is an amazing feeling when you finish your final project and realise what you are now capable of! 🤩
As frustrating as brilliant, said with love! There is a lot to wrap your head around, but instructions are clear and highlights the fact that learning to code is hard, there is not just one solution and that practise is necessary - I wish I'd had more time set aside personally, but as the project is finished, I'm looking forward to go back and review the steps and develop a deeper understanding and become more proficient before enrolling in next step
I would have loved to have more projects to prepare for the final one since it was quite difficult in my opinion. Apart from that it was so much fun!
SheCodes Responsive has been a perfect addition to the SheCodes workshops. Matt makes the course concepts seem quite straight forward, but putting them into practice was quite challenging and at the same time super rewarding. It's given me the motivation to continue my coding journey and find new projects to add to my portfolio.
I've really enjoyed the course and the way elements have logically built on each other. The final project was a good way to put everything into practice.
Would definitely recommend to people that are brand new to coding, Matt goes everything in a very detailed manner that doesn't overwhelm you. The videos are easy to follow along to and courses can be done at anytime which provides great flexibility. The only things I didn't like was having to do the first two lessons on codepen and then switching to VS Code for projects after and having the CSS and JS done within the HTML file (but I am sure that it's like that so the team can grade things easier).
It's been a journey, I'm so happy that I attended the SheCodes Plus workshop! I loved doing the final project and will use everything that I learned in the future for sure. Everyone at SheCodes is friendly and supportive, and the classes are extremely well explained. I feel very confident to continue on this coding journey.
The workshops and the instructor, are both brilliant, I would highly recommend SheCodes for anyone interested in changing their careers in order to learn the fundamentals of programming as well as working on real-based projects. The instructor guides his students step by step with tons of examples.
"The last time I took a programming class, I was the only girl in the room. SheCodes has not only given me a solid foundation in HTML/CSS/JS, but also confidence in my abilities to learn and grow in a field that is often very intimidating. On top of that, I now have an amazing network of smart women that I can turn to for help with a project or even career advice!"
I've really enjoyed this course. Being able to apply everything I'm learning to a project has helped consolidate the learning. It's really hands on which suits my learning style. Matt has added extra classes as I've been going through which was really useful.
This course was very intense and interesting. I really enjoyed the step-by-step approach and the challenges were very helpful in learning the material. I would lose track of time while doing the challenges and working on the final project because I just wanted to keep learning more and more.
This workshop does not view React in all its complexity, but you get to know the basics, and you'll learn pretty fast. I really enjoyed the Dictionary project! I am excited about continuing my journey in coding/programming. :)
Equally challenging and rewarding course, I really like the structure, the videos and what a great project to finish with! At times, Lacking sometimes in basic knowledge and theory when it came to JS, but overall very good :)
Great workshop! React was my favourite and I felt at ease with all the content and am super happy with both projects!
The React platform was so challenging, in the good way! It was a little bit confusing when the dictionary project was launched on Shecodes.io but this new project was really fun to do 🙂 Many thanks for all the team for this great platform.
I was happy to continue my workshops with "SheCodes Plus" after the "Basic" one and now excited to continue my workshop with "React"! That was a real journey for me, I thought I will not be able to build the app, but with the Matt's talent to explain the things in an easy way helped me to finish the final project! 😍☺️ and the whole team, support in Slack also was very helpful, thanks to Lexi and João too for such support!🙏 I felt like home and all students are also very friendly. Great platform for networking too! Thank you very much for new knowledge and opportunities! ✨
Great workshop, very well structured and explained to make it easy to understand and above all a great project in the end to practice new learnt know-how.
although i was rather sceptical at the very beginning, i am happy i have decided to take the course. I did doubted a lot whether it did actually worth it and if i really needed to take such a course. Now after subbmitting my final project i can definitely say that it is really worth taking. It gave me a very good understanding of what coding is and how i can use it. I got so impessed and curious that I am planning of taking also the shecodes plus.
Ideal for anyone looking to sharpen their existing coding knowledge, get creative with their coding skills, and build an impressive online portfolio to showcase their coding projects and knowledge.
I´ve never coded before... At the beginning, it was pretty hard for me to get the logic. The challenges after each lesson helped me a lot and in the end, I was more than euphoric to do my own project! I am very happy with the result and it was a lot of fun, too!
Just finished my final project in the 3-weeks workshop "Introduction to coding". This course was a really good experience to learn the basics for coding. In particular, it's great that you can organise your time to complete lessons and challenges by yourself. It was so much fun taking this first step! :)
