Can sometimes be a little tricky, but just remember you have other resources at your fingertips. Don't rely on the videos 100%.
Another great workshop! As always, it combined the right amount of challenge with easy-to-follow videos. It was a lot of fun coding a dictionary and learning more about React 👩💻 Thank you SheCodes for this amazing journey into coding!
Great resource to learn and practice along the videos.
shecodes has been a great entrance into coding, i have learnt so much and will be going back to the videos for refreshers. highly recommend for the great chat support on slack and project guidance
SheCodes is AMAZING! I love the platform and all the videos, Matt is a fantastic teacher, he explains everything in a fun and interactive way! I learned a lot and also enjoyed all the workshops :)
I loved the course so far. The short videos and challenges are good to understand and it's super fun going through all the steps. Can't wait for the rest!
I found the course very interesting and a bit challenging but with the help of the videos and Athena AI i managed to do the challenges and project swiftly.
A very interesting course, and even though it was very challenging at times, the videos helped me a lot! It was fun working on the final project little by little, although I found that during the final 2 weeks, we covered the same things as during the first 6 weeks. I'm very excited for the Plus Add-on course!
After a few mental breakdown and a lot of watching videos, lectures and readings, I finally finished SheCodes React workshop. I have learnt about React alot and it was super fun and interesting. I made a weather app which has light and dark mode. Although I left out the forecast for now, I will definitely add it later.
Pheeeeeeeww! This has been an awesome experience Matt is super awesome, the videos very explanatory and all.. I am most grateful to SheCodes for this opportunity and look forward to the next phase.
It's been a little bit more than 2 weeks that I have started my journey with SheCodes. I am a mother and I work at the same time but the workshop is so well-organised that you can find your own way to study and to make it at your own pace. I can't wait to reach the next step with you guys. Sometimes, I felt overwhelmed but Matt encourages us in his well-explained videos! I am about to achieve one of my dreams on my bucket list. SheCodes makes it happen so Thank you so much and I can't wait to continue!
"I recently completed the coding training program offered by SheCodes and I cannot recommend it highly enough. The curriculum was well-structured and provided me with a solid foundation in coding fundamentals. The instructor Matt, was knowledgeable, patient, and did well in the execution of the workshop videos that I fully understood the material. The workshop also included practical projects that allowed me to apply what I had learned in a real-world context. Thanks to this training, I now feel a bit confident in my ability to pursue a career in coding and I'm excited to see where this new skill will take me. Thank you, SheCodes!"
I love the way the course was built. Not only you get code snippets and demos, there are also videos with Matt explaining on every topic. The course is really engaging, you get a lot of practise due to the homeworks. By the way, SheCodes is the only platform I saw that actually has people to review your homework and help with any questions in Slack. Such a great educational source and helpful community!
Oh my God! I am so proud of myself right now, I am doing wonderfully well with coding. Thank you so much for granting me the Shecodes basic scholarship. the videos were easy to understand, amazing people on slack makes this learning easy and interesting. Thanks
This workshop was great! I'm a total beginner and i was able to grasp a lot more than expected thanks to the videos and support throughout. Would definitely recommend.
Very easy to learn with the videos, and the challenges really help to put into practice what I learned.
As a complete newbie to coding, the learning videos were easy to follow and the challenges after the lesson really helped me comprehend more. I've learnt so much in the last three weeks and I recommend this workshop for anyone interesting in beginning their coding journey!
I like SheCodes because it gives me all of the information/steps I need in order to become successful in the coding field. Matt has been great! His videos are straightforward and are easy to learn from. Plus, the cheatcodes/tools that are given to us for help are amazing. I will be recommending this bootcamp to everyone I know that's going into this field.
I am so excited to have come across Shecodes. I would recommend it to every woman out there. Shecodes came at the time when I needed it the most. The videos are short and straight to the point. I am grateful to Matt for taking his time to take us through each and every topic in a way that makes it so interesting and less boring.
I love the format of this course! The short lesson videos and practice challenges keep me engaged throughout the process while the weekly homework deadlines keep me accountable to stay on track :)
Fun week of videos, learnt a handful of useful skills. can't wait for the next course!
I always wanted to start coding but I was frightened and SheCodes was the platform that helped me to overcome it. I'm the happiest when I watch its videos.
I really enjoyed this workshop, would definitely recommend for beginners. Videos were very clear and informative!
I learnt so much in this course than i have watching videos. It was more practical, engaging and the concepts were very well explained. Kudos to Matt Delac!
The course was to a certain extent useful and I learned something new. A lot of technologies were covered, videos were short but informative that allowed me not to lose concentration. Also I liked the idea with the cheat sheets available on the web site. At the same time, I’d like to mention the following drawbacks: - there is a gap between the course program and the course content itself, which led me to hope for more than was actually given. For instance, ‘SheCodes Plus’ program mentions ‘Advanced Javascript’, while in practice we only scratched the surface. - I had a feeling that some information was repeated again and again instead of new topics being covered. - homework feedback provided was hardly useful: “Your solution is valid! Good job” is not an informative one. I would rather want to hear more on practices I used and my code style. - given all of the above, I believe the course is a bit overpriced
A great additional option to master your basic coding skills and complete another project. Ready for new coding challenges and looking forward for Matt's videos.
There are issues with SheCodes BASICS: If you watch the provided videos, study the attached materials/links and possibly make some notes to ensure you've truly understood the concepts before tackling the challenges, you need half an hour per lesson. There are twenty lessons in the first week alone; therefore the estimated study time is WAY off. Also, towards the end of Week 1, the lessons become notably lazy and a lot of relevant information is simply dumped below the videos. The challenge in Week 2, lesson 3 is extremely poorly explained (it gets better again after that). On the bright side: The course does introduce you to Slack and VS Code (real developer tools). Conclusion: If you're completely unfamiliar with HTML & CSS, want to get your feet wet but don't know where to start, you might as well spend 100 bucks on SheCodes BASICS. However, as of February 27, 2023, the SheCodes Terms of Use state: "It is not possible to get a refund for a course even if you contact us before the course has started." How very empowering. Mind you, we're talking about a more or less fully automated setup. Based on such a refund policy alone, I cannot recommend that you spend your money on the other (significantly more expensive) workshops. Go check out Dr. Angela Yu or Colt Steele instead.
It was a fantastic experience, I enjoyed the methodology, as well as the videos which were easy to follow. I've done all the challenges with great excitement, and now I feel quite motivated to keep on going. Thank you so much!!❤😍
I struggled to understand some of the steps as when Matt was coding, the screen was jumping and I wasn't sure exactly what the changes were. I had to rewind the videos a lot to be on the same page.
The workshops are very practical and applicable. Short videos help me feel motivated and energetic, and provide me with a good opportunity to identify areas for which I need more practice. I enjoyed the weekly projects a lot and found the final project fun and exciting. The teaching materials were challenging just about the right amount for me: not too difficult to the point of being frustrating, and not too easy to lose motivation. Overall, the experience has been excellent so far.
I had fun creating my responsive portfolio. The videos were easy to follow and I'd recommend them to anyone who wants to learn how to code!
SheCodes has been a great way to hone my introductory coding skills. It was a great combination or resources and instructional videos that helped support me in creating fun projects!
A really interesting introduction to coding. I especially liked the pace of the videos and felt the level of challenge was good.
The course is amazing! I learned so much in such a short amount of time and can't wait to learn more. The structure of the course allows you learn at your own pace and is broken down into short manageable videos so it's easy to review. I went into this course with zero coding knowledge and thanks to SheCodes have now found my new passion.
Great workshop for beginners! Explanation is clear, information is very well structured, all videos are short and informative.
During this workshop, I acquired some advanced pure CSS skills to make my website responsive and user-friendly on all devices - mobiles, tablets, desktops etc. I included google maps, Spotify playlist, Youtube videos inside responsive grids, so that not only they provide adequate and convenient information for users, they also look and feel natural as built-ins inside the website.
I think one of the most practical parts of the SheCodes courses is that you can go back and rewatch the previous videos as a great review, and to make sure your physical and or digital notes are fully fleshed out. I have other friends who did live classes online to learn coding, but the digital format with the slack help works better for my learning style.
I recently attended SheCodes Basic Workshop, and I have to say it was a great experience. The e-learning videos are very detailed and made the concepts easy to understand, even for someone with no prior coding experience like myself. The workshop was well-organized and covered a wide range of topics. One thing I particularly appreciated about the workshop was the hands-on approach. We were given ample time to practice what we learned, and feedback was provided. By the end of the workshop, I felt confident in my ability to write basic code and solve simple programming problems. Overall, I would highly recommend this basic coding workshop to anyone interested in learning how to code. It's an excellent starting point for beginners, and the skills you'll learn will be valuable in any field that requires computer literacy.
The SheCodes Plus workshop helped me to gain a deeper understanding of HTML, CSS and especially JS. Even though it seemed challenging at first, clear and easy to follow videos made an extremely enjoyable experience. Thank you to Matt and the team for this! Highly recommend to everyone interested in coding!
I signed up to SheCodes with zero coding knowledge and now I enjoy coding so much! The lessons were detailed and structured, I am sure you won't get lost in it, and I could replay the instruction videos at anytime. The challenges and homeworks are also helpful, they are a tool to get a better understanding of the materials. A tip: don't skip watching the instruction videos, and look on the bottom page of each lessons - some great and valuable tips are often there.
I started the workshop with zero coding experience, and I learnt so much. Matt explains everything in a very clear way, the videos and challenges are so well organised that makes it feel very easy and not overwhelming at all. I would definitely recommend it.
I had such a great time with SheCodes Basics! I am a complete beginner to coding but I felt the videos easy to follow and the challenges were just the right amount of difficulty to challenge me, but not make it feel impossible. I certainly got stuck a time or two, but after going back and reviewing old videos or checking out Slack, I was able to sort out my mistakes. I can't wait to do another workshop!
I would highly recommend SheCodes to anybody who would like to learn how to code, especially if you don't have any previous experience(s) with coding! I studied something completely different in Uni, but wanted to be able to transfer the passion that I have for creativity in my free time (in the future) into my 9-5 as well. I also wanted something that would continue to challenge my brain on a daily basis. After some internet searches I came across SheCodes and decided to take the free intro-to-coding class from Matt. I was hesitant at first since I had no prior experience to coding, but as soon as Matt said that you don't need prior experience and that anyone can learn how to code, I decided that it was worth giving it a try. It did not disappoint! I'm so happy that I followed the Basics course; I learned so much in 3 weeks and Matt's explanation videos were pretty easy to follow and also very helpful. At times it can get a bit frustrating when there are mistakes in your code that you're struggling to find and correct, but fear not! By retracing your steps or asking for help on Slack you will eventually figure it out and it will all be worth it! I'm exited to continue learning and can't wait to sign up for SheCodes Plus. 10/10
I really enjoyed the basic course! The instruction videos are easy to follow, very clear explanation. A great introduction to coding, super fun!
This workshop was comprised of videos that were easy to follow along with. The schedule and the deadlines help with time management.
This course was challenging but really enjoyable, the videos were super helpful. I have learned a lot, and happy to continue with the add-ons. :)
I have never been tested so much mentally honestly. A really beautiful yet challenging experience. I had to rewatch a lot of videos multiple times as the level was quite higher than that of SheCodes basics. I learnt so much and feel much comfortable with javascript now. It was really exciting to see my app fully functioning, thank you so much to Matt and the entire sheCodes team.
SheCodes Responsive has been integral in my learning of what it takes to develop a fully functional and beautiful website! The videos and challenges were direct, explanatory, and interesting throughout the course. I have built so much confidence in my abilities through these courses!
SheCodes allowed me to learn a new skill at my own pace while going to school full time, it was great being able to learn from the videos and activities, while getting help with troubleshooting from the SheCodes team.
This course is amazingly done and I would highly recommend to everyone who wants to try themselves in the field of coding. All materials are explained in details from basics. You can start from easy phrases gradually going up to building your own webpage.Videos all recorded in friendly and clear manner. This course almost killed my fear of coding and programming and built confidence of learning this new field with excitement.
I had great experience using this platform. I tried other sources to learn how to code but none of them did it the way SheCodes did. After i watched the videos i understood everything much better and it didn't seem so complicated anymore. The assignements they give you after every subject are so helpful. U used what you just learned and put into practice right away.
Such a great course! I learnt so much! The important aspects of HTML, CSS, and JavaScript were taught very well through bitesize videos, rather than tutorials that were hours long. This made the experience less overwhelming and the information easier to digest. Great for those with shorter attention spans! The structure of the curriculum made it easy to refer to past videos when working on a later project. This course has provided me with a solid foundation to build upon.
I have always wanted to do something in IT, but didn't know what until I came across SheCodes! I have really enjoyed learning to code. I am not the best with learning, I am more of a visual leaner, I can understand better with pictures and videos, and Matt has made it easy and enjoyable to do so! This workshop has pumped me up and ignited my mind and heart for the love of coding! 🤩🙌
I started this course with zero knowledge or experience. There were times when I felt like an imposter but I took notes, referred back to them constantly, and rewatched videos. After watching myself apply the information I was learning, I was was truly amazed at how much I was retaining in such a short amount of time. I'm excited to keep going and learn more!
I really enjoyed this workshop so much! The videos are easy and clear to understand. The challenges at the end of each lesson really help put the skills to practice and the final projects have been challenging and a lot of fun to code. This workshop made me more interested in coding.
This has been such a fun call. The videos were amazing, and very easy to follow.
It was an amazing journey. Another great prepared coding course, with well prepared videos, tips & tricks showing step by step how to become more efficient in coding. SheCodes Team - Chapeau bas!
Building a project step by step along with Matt has been great, I'm really proud of my work! However, two main challenges I had with SheCodesPlus: 1. The JavaScript concepts are oftentimes not thoroughly explained, it remains for the most part quite superficial, you WILL need to dig deeper on your own. I personnally studied with a bunch of Youtube videos and a Codecademy course in parallell. 2. Towards the end of the project, everything revolving around API needs to be updated. In Matt's video, he uses an older API than the one you're supposed to use. So it's quite tricky to follow his steps and understand everything. The Slack chat can be really helpful in this moment, which is very nice. All in all I'm happy with my work, happy with my progress, and the support on Slack is great. But I remain slightly disappointed by the video courses which left a lot of questions unanswered. That's the beauty of code, you might say. The learning never stop!
SheCodes is a one of a kind coding bootcamp. I am really impressed with the ways the lessons are taught. From basic HTML, CSS, and JS to the final project, I can say that I learned things from this. Given that I got the course for free, this is a good foundation for me to continue in coding. SheCodes is a good platform for everyone, beginner to expert. From their good videos to their new AI feature, Athena, who helped me in some of my codes. Thank you SheCodes team and Matt for giving me this opportunity. I hope that more women could learn from SheCodes. :)
Great course and easy to follow videos!
It was not easy to understand at the first time. I had to pause and re-play the videos many times. But it was a great experience.
This progam helped me learn a lot of basics of coding. Each video was really helpful and I think that this project was really exciting. Every detail was explained in the videos which is very helpful for a beginner like me!
I love the accountability which the weekly program offers, this means that I was more likely to stay committed. Another factor I enjoy is the fact you can easily revisit and rewatch videos, the support from Slack is super helpful and accessible. Matt teaches in a clear and playful way which makes the sessions enjoyable. I enjoy the focus on playing around with colour and design.
I had such a great time learning about coding! The videos made it really easy to understand for someone who has no experience :)
It was so much fun learning plus the course is very easy to understand and the videos along the way were the best!
I have just completed my week 1-3 I have been enjoying SheCodes a lot. I have learnt so many amazing things in just my first few weeks. I really enjoy the quick response from the SheCodes team if I have any questions, the lecture videos are easy to navigate and watch as they are very short. I am very excited for my further journey on sheCodes.
As an introduction to code, SheCodes workshop has been great! The videos are short but informative, and you are able to practice every step of the way. I had a great experience with the program, and I look forward to learning more about coding.
I definitely love going at my own pace and working with the videos. I still have a ways to go throughout this course.
I really enjoyed the course, first week was the most difficult one. But the more I learned, the more interested I became. The videos give clear explanations and guidance. Especially useful I found Athena AI.
My interest in coding began in late 2022, whilst I was in my third year of University. I realised that I had little passion for my major and wanted to find something new that would spark passion within me. I had thought about going back to university after I graduated to study an MBA or something in finance. But, 2022 was a year of exploration and self discovery for me, I had met a lot of friends within the tech industry, who suggested I look into coding and that coding was a great field for women. So, I did just that. I began my research and saw an overwhelming amount of different positions within the tech industry. Immediately, I was drawn to the idea of cybersecurity and began to do a course on that on freeCodeCamp but it was overwhelmingly difficult and frustrating. I gave up as quickly as I had began. Then, I return after I had written my final year exams and went back to my research, I looked for advice from the large online coding community and everyone had advised to start with web development, as it was the foundation of understanding coding and breaking into the industry. So, I started again, watching Youtube videos, following along with them as they began to code, and at first, it was overwhelming but it made a lot more sense this time since I was taking baby steps. I spent a month being self taught, assimilating the different markup languages, wanting to perfect them before I added Javascript to my roster. I went on Tiktok and found my community in 'Black women in Tech-tok', that's when I came across SheCodes for the first time. I always knew I was a learner that needed a roadmap with structure, so I knew I would thrive in an online school or course, so I knew SheCodes would be for me. I had a stable enough understanding of HTML and CSS and SheCodes helped me begin to understand the ropes of Javascript and I'm excited to learn more, know more and grow with SheCodes. This is only the beginning of my journey with our amazing instructor Matt and the SheCodes team.
sheCodes has been a great learning platform for me the online videos of Matt breaking down the concepts made it easy for to understand.I am definitely better than when I started and have enjoyed the learning process
That was an interesting course for learning the basics, with having no coding background I liked the setting and the presentations. Sometimes, I felt overwhelmed by the amount of content, but actually it is not a big deal. You get help through Slack and Athena Al are terrific helpers; Athena Al walks through more details. I cannot believe how Matt makes it so easy to learn how to code, the multiple challenges and interactive videos make it easy for us to follow and implement what we learn as we go. My confidence in my abilities went from zero to almost 100% when it came to applying the concepts taught. I would recommend this course to all women around the world it is truly worth it.
I am a stay at home mom and I was scrolling tik tok one night when I came across a video for She Codes. I am not computer or tech savvy at all. However I found it interesting and decided to watch the free 60 minute coding session. After that I started the She Codes Basic and I LOVED IT!!! The whole set up was great. I loved the short videos they were so easy to follow, and challenges were so fun. I am excited to start another workshop!!!
I really enjoyed this course! I had a little knowledge about html and css before I started, but it all makes so much more sense now. The videos were well structured and well paced and I enjoyed working on all the challenges. Can't wait to start the next course with SheCodes :-)
This 3 weeks of coding have been fun! The classes and videos were very easy to understand. As a beginner with no knowledge about HTML, CSS or Java Script, I was able to build my first landing page. I am excited about my progress and will continue learning how to code. What an exciting journey into tech! Thanks Matt.
I learned a lot in SheCodes Plus! It's so satisfying being able to put everything together to create an app. Things really started to click while completing Plus. Some things I struggled with, but I always knew I'd have a way to figure out the answer either through the resources, videos with Matt, or in the slack groups. I really enjoy the structure SheCodes provides. I'm feeling more and more confident.
Before this workshop, I wasn't a beginner to HTML / CSS. However, JavaScript was new to me, the videos were easy to follow. Looking forward to enrolling in the Plus workshop.
I really liked the responsive course. I have learnt again so much. Thank you for all the videos, challenges and Slack support. I highly recommend this course. Thank you.
I learned so much from this certificate! It was great having the support of the videos, Slack channel and resources.
As a designer with an education in UI/UX and strong interest in front-end development, SheCodes Basic and Plus were valuable resources on my journey towards refreshing my knowledge of HTML/CSS and Git, as well as picking up new ones in JS, APIs, and more. The lessons were clear and concise, and I liked that the platform allowed me to view and review the SheCodes videos, notes, and other recourses at my own pace. The community is also inspiring, warm, and diverse. I enjoyed connected with a handful of SheCodes alumni as well as fellow students over LinkedIn over the past months. With the help of Matt and the SheCodes community, I feel supported and engaged in my journey towards a career in combined UI/UX and front-end development. I'm also excited to continue working on this project and alongside new ones, in the upcoming weeks!
It was a very interesting workshop. The way it is taught, through videos and with the various challenges, makes things more understandable and fun.
This workshop was challenging but fun at the same time. Definitely got to learn so much in building this weather app. The homework and challenges helped to solidify your understandings of the videos. Would highly recommend.
Ideal for beginners who have no knowledge of coding at all. The explanations in the videos are super easy for anyone to understand.
I would like to just say that playing SheCodes videos, asking questions of the team and going with its flow is like listening and speaking to a safe, kind and knowledgeable friend. Everything in this educational career is pleasing as well as efficient.
Learning how to code through shecodes basics workshop has been a really great experience and journey altogether. I cannot believe how Matt makes it so easy to learn how to code, the multiple challenges and interactive videos make it easy for us to follow and implement what we learn as we go. My confidence in my abilities went from zero to almost 100% when it came to applying the concepts taught. I would recommend this course to all women around the world it is truly worth it.
SheCodes has been a life changer for me. The course is easy to follow because Matt's videos are thorough and well-paced. I look forward to starting the SheCodes React workshop next week. I highly recommend this course for any female looking to join the tech industry or would like to have fun creating websites. I am having more fun than I ever imagined. Thank you Matt Delac and the team at SheCodes.
I had so much fun learning about coding again! The videos were very informative and challenging but I enjoyed my time relearning it. Matt is such an awesome instructor and he explains everything thoroughly and it's pretty easy to catch onto things. I can't wait to continue onto the next workshop with SheCodes!
The Plus workshop was definitely challenging, but Matt's videos made it super easy and clear to follow. The SheCodes team on Slack also helped me out a lot, so I appreciate their hard work. I learned so much and pushed myself more than ever. I never thought I would be able to build anything like my Weather App project, but I love how it came out. I can't wait to continue on learning with SheCodes.
👋Hi, I really liked this course, especially useful links to various materials that can help in further work and what good educational videos. I did every exercise and project with great interest and pleasure. I highly recommend this course, because in such a short amount of time you can learn the basics of front-end programming well👩💻.
Very fun and interesting start to Web Development basics! The videos were easy to follow and well explained, I'm looking forward to starting the next workshop!
I was very nervous about learning how to code, but I am honestly surprised that I really enjoyed learning the different coding languages. Matt does a great job of explaining the content clearly in his videos. This was a great experience of learning the basics and I can't wait to make time to learn more in the future!
I have been trying other courses and struggling through them... As soon as I took the leap into SheCodes I knew it was the place I was meant to be. Matt explains everything so well. Watching the videos and understanding before trying is a game changer!
I had a great experience doing the SheCodes Basics workshop. It was an awesome intro to the field of coding. The videos were super easy to follow and clear with instruction. Definitely worth the time and money invested!
I have enjoyed every second of learning CSS, HTML, and JS with Matt! Matt tries to teach the most important stuff first and not to overwhelm students with complicated materials. Projects will help you to practice what you learn during videos and remember them.
I would highly recommend this intro to coding! After several free videos on Youtube I finally decided to go for a little more structure and I am happy with that desicion.
A friend of mine mentioned SheCodes during a conversation about skills, so I did the free class, which I enjoyed a lot, and signed up for the basics course right away. However, at the same time, I changed jobs. As I was very busy in the transition period, I kept postponing the deadline. I was afraid I would never meet the deadlines while working full time job and other having other hobbies. 2023 came and so a new resolution: stop postponing SheCodesBasics! And I'm so glad I finally did the course! It turns out it was easier and more manageable than I thought!!! The fact that is broken down in small topics with short videos helps you to manage your time (I think it also helped that I got a bit addicted 😛). Thank you Matt and SheCodes Team!
The SheCodes classes are a good way to get started. I think the react class is the most difficult one. It was interesting but in my opinion the other classes are enough if you just want to get to know coding. I think some videos need to be updated but generally I would recommend all the classes I took here!
This bootcamp + some instructional videos from a free coding bootcamp really helped me learn the basics of HTML, CSS, and javascript. I can't wait to keep going.
Another amazing workshop to learn more about HTML and CSS. A great opportunity to develop a responsive and SEO-optimized website. As usual, the videos are easy to follow and the final project is challenging and a lot of fun to code.
I am a product designer who is curious about front-end development. The course helped me understand the basics of HTML, CSS, and JavaScript. I have a better understanding of how things are built on the front-end side now and this will be useful to me in my further career. The lesson videos were comprehensive and easy to follow. Thank you for creating a platform like #shecodes to close the gender gap in the industry 😉
