I first heard about She Codes a year ago, when I was studying at Nova. I thought it would not make sense to apply since I was not connected, at all, to the programming world and I didn't understood nothing of it. This year, I came to the conclusion that the most powerful tool that men-kind has at his disposition is programming. It controls everything. I wanted to know more about it and how it could change the way I worked. Now I just want to dig and learn more.
She codes was an eye opening experience that allowed me to see for the first time a future in tech. For its short time the workshop is really well structured and well delivered. I learned a lot. Thanks! 🤓📚❤️
As a digital marketer I am convinced that (at least basic) coding skills are required to grow in your job. And in the future they will become even more relevant! I was personally always curious about coding, however it being still such a men domain (even in 2018!) might hinder many women from learning it. After this fun two days I can only recommend it to other interested girls: I love the creativity in it and the feeling you created something from scratch! Since I also love challenges, I am thinking of enrolling for the upcoming Shecodes Week!
Taking part in SheCodes 9.0 was one of the best experiences of my stay in Lisbon. I was always fascinated by technology but never thought that coding could be something I would enjoy - SheCodes definitely changed my opinion about that and I could develop a new passion. 💻 Many thanks to all of the SheCodes team for making coding so interesting and fun! You are amazing! ✨
SheCodes is a great opportunity for every woman who wants to land a career in the tech industry. I really liked the beginner workshop, which teaches you all the basics needed to start front-end coding in different languages. Equipped with this knowledge I really enjoyed creating my own project.
The She Codes workshop taught me that I can code and for that I am so grateful! I've already developed a small project for the company I work for and finding the experience super exciting! Absolutely recommend to everyone.
Code controls 90% of what we do in our day-to-day lives and I was clueless as to what all this was, therefore my main goal when I applied for She Codes was to be able to understand the gibberish of coding. Goal accomplished with a lot of extra bonuses on the way! I feel like I have started to crack the surface of the coding potential, and hope to continue doing so.
Be prepared for a really fast pace and to enjoy yourself. Coding is super fun and even if you don't want to work as a developer you can still take a lot from the classes to use in your everyday tech activities.
The workshop was a great way to gain first insights into coding for me. It was hands-on and super exciting. It definitely made me curious to learn more about the topic and I am happy that I had the opportunity to be part of She Codes!
This workshop is a great way to try your hand at the basics of html, css and JavaScript. Besides teaching us the technical side, there is the plus of knowing more about the developers' roles within an organization, and about the process of developing a product! Overall I had a great experience and highly recommend it :)
I highly recommend She Codes to any women that wants to explore the area. It was a very interesting workshop where I could understand what it is like to be a front-end developer and learn HTML, CSS and JavaScript. Besides that I also learned more about product management. Thank you She Codes team for this amazing experience!
What a great experience! SheCodes is a fast-paced workshop, ideal to women that are curious about tech and how to code, but don't know how to start. Great pool of teachers and volunteers!
SheCodes was the perfect opportunity for me to enter the world of coding. As a journalist and content producer I work a lot with the interfaces of websites, but what is going on behind was a mystery to me. Matt and his team took away my fear and I can actually imagine me developing professionally in this direction. 🙏 Thank you, SheCodes!
Super happy with what I got out of this course and I would love to attend She Codes Plus. Whole team is great and I definitely recommend it to any woman that wants to understand how software works from the basis.
SheCodes for the win! A weekend filled with hard work, lots of laughs & definitely no time to go to the bathroom! This workshop enabled me to understand and implement the principles behind HTML, CSS & JavaScript. Wouldn’t want to miss it! Muito obrigada.
I am really happy that I had this training. As a Product Owner it will help be to understand better my developers requests and doubts. First I thought that 2 days wouldn't be enough but actually it's quite enough! Thanks Matt Dellac and team for your thoughtfulness :)
Coding is a foreign language we are faced with everyday: learning it is both about being able to understand the world around us and having a different voice in the future. SheCodes is definitely a great place to start! 😊💃
She Codes was a great workshop! In a couple of days you are able to understand what coding is all about, how and where to start and get insights from people in the field. Don't expect to know everything by the end of She Codes (well.. you'll never know anyway :) ) but it is definitely a great starting point for those who want to know more about programming! I would definitely recommend to any girl !
This is a great workshop for those who would like to get to know about the coding world from scratch.
I think anyone with interest in web development should attend She Codes. It is a great way to learn the basics and we get to know more about how the industry works. For me it also gave me the necessary push to try to learn more afterwards even if it by myself.
She Codes is an enriching opportunity if you want to start your journey in programming! It is a fast-paced workshop but I learned a lot over this weekend, while having fun. Got to meet a lot of people with inspiring stories 😊 Strongly recommend it!
She Codes was a great opportunity to get the basics of coding that I needed to understand the developers at my job!
She Codes gave me a wonderful introduction to the world of coding. It made me realize that it's nothing that I had expected but it also made me see that, if I worked hard, I could do it. The workshop itself is fast paced but it couldn't be any other way in order to do give the basics in such a small amount of time. Matt was an excellent teacher that really transcended what coding means to him. An excellent opportunity!
Short but intense session to understand codes, and learn the first steps. I was amazed to already be able to code a web page on my own after this.
SheCodes is a great initiative to encourage more women to get into the tech world. I wanted to learn more about front-end developing and to improve my programming skills. After the workshop I feel that I've learned more and I've met great people who are as motivated as me.
I couldn't have had a better first experience with coding. It was fun, simple and impactful. I learned the basics of coding in a cool environment surrounded by inspiring women. Matt challenged us to do more and better, always making it seems easy and fun. And the impact was not just on the skills acquired but on my driven to now wanting to learn more.
Amazing experience, I definitely recommend to anyone who is curious or interested in learning how to code. It's impressive how much one can learn in only 3 days. It's totally worth it, you will discover a new world full of possibilities and know right away if you like it or not. 🔥 🔥 🔥 🔥 🔥 🔥 🔥 🔥 🔥
First of all the need to be constantly learning and secondly to complement my self learning process of digital marketing and Web design!
"She Codes is a major opportunity - Not only for learning how to code but also for networking, sharing experiences and working as team. A big thanks to all team members who dedicate their free time to such an amazing project :)"
SheCodes is not just a coding workshop; it's a community of amazing women who inspire and motivate others to code. Learning CSS and HTML has ignited a spark within me, as I feel more empowered to use them at work and on my free time.
I had the pleasure of learning how to code and be inspiring about this new world and new possibilities. From the first day of class until the end Matt and his team were very helpful. I'm glad I took the opportunity to explore the tech market.
I really loved doing She Codes! It was really good to learn the basics about this 3 languages and at the end I was amble to do a simple landing page by myself. Matt is very good teacher! I totally recommend :)
💻She Codes 👩 was an incredible experience for me, I was already looking for a way to create more interactive projects as a designer. I really wanted to learn how to program. After several attempts I came to the right place where I took the basic ideas to develop a more linear path. This is a big highlight in this workshop, it is not just about lines of code, we also talk about design, management and motivation for this professional activity or for future possibilities from here. We are really lucky to have an inspiring programmer behind this project - Matt 🐱💻 and his fantastic team 🐱👓 and volunteers 🐱🚀, thank you all for this opportunity! 🐱🏍
Thanks to this workshop I am now convinced I want to do code. Tech stuff aren't for men only. It's time to change this! Thanks to the whole She Codes team for making this possible.
When I entered She Codes I already knew a little bit about coding, however I never step out of my comfort zone and would just do the small exercises that were given to me (which wouldn't really help me learn anything new, or remember what I knew). She Codes takes you out of your comfort zone and makes you remember and understand what you learn -- which is what it's really important when coding! It gave me the motivation to continue studying coding on my own 😊
SheCodes is a great opportunity for any woman that wants to learn how to code. And even if you don’t want to be a developer, understanding how coding works makes a big difference for any professional. The course itself is very hands-on, challenging and it gives you the knowledge you need to move forward on your own. I’m very glad that I had the opportunity to be a part of it.
I actually heard about SheCodes before its first ever session one year ago. I am always keen on learning something new and after I found it online, I subscribed to the newsletter and kept receiving information about it for each session. I decided to apply for the first time to SheCodes 7.0 because it was finally the right time and I got in! I was so excited to start it as I have been wanting for many years to know a bit more about the World of Coding. Meeting great people, both passionate teachers and fellow coders was just the right format to deep dive into it! The different aspects (Coding, Design and Product Management) makes it a great first introduction as it gives you a global picture on how those 3 aspects work in unison. I also like and respect the vision and reasons behind why Matt decided to launch SheCodes. It’s a really great opportunity and I never thought I would be able to design a landing page like mine for the final project. Learning in classrooms with actual people is also way more efficient that starting online courses by yourself, which I had tried before. Now I just want to learn more and develop my skills and intend on attending more courses like that. As a professional currently working in Digital Marketing and managing a blog, SheCodes has already been beneficial and I strongly believe it will also benefit me for my freelance and other projects in the near future.
Taking part of She Codes 7.0 was one of the best challenges of my life. I was always curious about coding but I was thinking it was a men field. However this course was the perfect opportunity to prove I was wrong, bringing me an invaluable experience and knowledge, with an amazing group. I never thought that learning code could be so fun and interesting! Many thanks to all the She Codes team for creating and investing so much time and efforts on such an amazing project! You rock!!! And thanks to you, now I can proudly say: I code :)
I tried to learn to code on my own but always felt demotivated quickly and failed miserably. With SheCodes I got the support I needed, the essential questions about front-end and back-end development clarified and a lot of exercises that were greatly beneficial because I could actually understand what I was doing. The course is fast-paced and intense if you are a complete beginner but you will get through! I recommend applying ASAP because this experience will change your life! Many thanks to Matt and the Team for doing this and building a community of SheCoders all over the world!
Applying to SheCodes was one of my best decisions! I was super curious about this area of expertise, but now I am sure that I want to learn even more. It was very enlightening, since now I know what to look for and where I can gather information. I really recommend it. Thank you SheCodes! 😎
For me She Codes was the perfect program to get a first steps into developing. I gained a broad overview and have now the tools to explore more by myself before signing up to the advanced class.
She Codes is a fast paced course where you get to tackle several coding principles, advanced techniques and tools, all of them used by developers. This means that what you learn in the workshop can really be applied in real life scenarios. Don't be afraid to try it, it will be 3 Saturday afternoons you won't regret! I thank the whole team and I hope you continue to do this for many years!!
This workshop was just what I was looking for. I wanted to get started with coding and learn more about web design and software development, but didn't know where to start. Personally, it feels great to learn something new, and professionally it will be very useful. The takeaway seems huge, and I'll see it better when I get there, whatever that is :)
"I would have never thought that I could learn so much within only three days while having that much fun! Meeting amazing other girls, coding, drinking some wine, enjoying the view on the market from SecondHome, and discussing the philosophical background about 'What it means to become a coder?' was what made this workshop special. Thanks, Matt, the volunteers, and all girls of SheCodes 7.0! "
"I really recommend She Codes workshop, is the best first step into the coding world. It was a very worthy, enlightening and interesting experience. Great to meet new people and a fantastic She Codes team. Thank you Matt, and keep going with this amazing project!"
SheCodes is a great platform to get to know the Front-End and Product Development processes. Personally it was a great experience and it taught me how to think as a coder. If you have the opportunity, don't miss it!
Highly recommended
As a graphic designer, knowing a little bit more about coding really changed the deal for me. The workshop was amazing, all the ladies were great, and it really did inspire me to go the extra mile. Now I can really say that I can code and I love doing it!
She Codes was a great way to give depth and solidity to a 'coding curiosity' I had in the back of my mind. It truly took me one step further in my journey towards being a better professional in the tech industry.
🙏Thank you - She Codes - for this initiative. It was a privilege to have this opportunity, be part of the “👩💻She Codes” family and get to know incredible people with so much knowledge to share. Now it’s time to practice (a lot) and continue learning.
It was lovely and refreshing to be in a room full of talented and amazing women! I didnt know anything about coding and I was able to understanding the basis and do a website. Matt was super patient and funny while doing the workshop which created a great atmosphere!
SheCodes is a fast-paced workshop great for females that want to learn how to code but don't know how to start. Even if you already know a programming language but never tried JS before, it is still a fun and energetic workshop to be part of! Excellent teachers!
It was a very intense weekend, but it was definitely worth it! It was great to be able to apply all the knowledge we gathered that weekend and bring something to live through the final project. Nothing beats the joy of after all the trial error process, seeing our webpage come to live and looking amazing! 💪
It's a great way to take the first steps into Front-end Developing. The classes were intense, dynamic and a lot of fun. Got to meet a lot of different people and got to know some inspiring stories.
Whether you work in the tech field or not, SheCodes is a must do for anyone who wants to understand how the web works and what coding actually means and entails. The content is presented in a hands on way and every exercise will get you a little bit more hooked on the topic. Not to mention that it was fun, would absolutely do it again!
She Codes definitely succeeded my expectations. In very little time we learnt so much (HTML, CSS, JavaScript). I would highly recommend the workshop for all the women that wish to learn the basics about coding. Props to Matt for his smooth & amusing introduction to the world of coding.
She Codes is a real well structured course and only this way can it be possible to learn a lot in a weekend. And there is also place for some fun as well :)
I love the course, the mentors, the tasks and the location! As a result the 'she codes' stickers are all around London by now. I learned a lot only in two days I am wondering how much I could develop in the 6-week course 🤔let me know if you are planning to do one outside of Portugal! 🙋
"She Codes was a game changer for me - I signed up to know if I was actually capable of coding, and guess what? I am! Thank you She Codes, for opening this Pandora's Box for me :)"
I work in digital marketing and a big part of my job is website management, as well form and landing page creation. Most of the things I had been learning on my own on the fly, but I was missing some framework for all the knowledge. SheCodes was perfect for that. It helped me get a more structured and in depth view on my everyday tasks. Apart from that Matt was a great teacher and all the other girls at the course were super nice! Thanks and cheers!
What an amazing experience! She Codes showed me that knowing how to code is a very empowering skill that lets us turn our ideas into reality. It was a very challenging and fun weekend, and I learned so much in such a short time! Thank you!
She codes project is only good for those who don't know anything about the web and wish to know more in a more face to face approach. You will learn html, and a light glimpse of css and javascript.
Whether you are a digital native needing a refresher or a novice to html, this fast-paced course is taught in a very supportive environment making it easy to learn those new languages. Matt is an excellent and engaging instructor.
She Codes workshop was a very worthy, enlightening and interesting experience. This workshop was very helpful not only to learn new stuff but also to understand some important concepts that were not completely clear after self-study. I truly recommend She Codes to every woman who wants to learn about coding.
I love the concept of She Codes! It proved to be very useful for acquiring an overview of the several programming languages and their application in real life and at work. I recommend the workshop to anyone who wants to start programming, with or without bases, and check the hypothesis of entering this area. I wish all success to this project. 5 *
A big shout-out to She Codes team for organizing such a fantastic event. I was impressed of how much I could learn in only 2 days! It definitely gave me the energy and motivation to keep exploring more about programming.
I could translate the concepts that I've learned before into 'real' situations and they become clearer as well.
What an amazing workshop, in such a short time I wanted to learn more about programming , to go even deeper into the subject. I strongly advise those who want to learn and understand how this theme works to make this fantastic workshop with Matt and his wonderful team.
My goal was to refresh my knowledge of programming and explore new possibilities. She Codes was definitely the best shot to start this journey with an intense but fun weekend of learning! Matt is super energetic and inspiring. After these days you'll certainly be empowered to learn and achieve more.
She Codes was an incredible opportunity for me to learn in an easy and funny way something that used to seem really hard to understand when I tried to learn by myself. I got the chance to know very interesting women and to grow as a professional, since knowing the basics of front-end is essential to be a digital marketer nowadays. Strongly recommend this workshop!
SheCodes is the best you can do if you want to start your journey in programming. It was sometimes challenging but in a good way. I am really grateful that I got the chance to participate and be part of this community! Thank you Guys!
I was completely surprised with how much I was able to learn in such a short amount of time! It was not only a great learning experience but also a really fun one. We were all supported by a wonderful group of talented and approachable teachers and staff that gave us all the resources so we can continue to practice and succeed on our own. A big part of this workshop is also being able to thrive and study with fellow women in tech! So if you are curious about coding, there are no reasons for you not to try it! 🐨
A big kickoff if you want to change your career, and you want to work in the areas of development, product design or project manager, and need to know what areas will fill your skills.
I've tried online courses but never managed to keep myself motivated just to learn the basics. With SheCodes it was intense, practical and fun! Worth every minute.
She Codes creates a perfect bridge between tech, business and UX. The workshop taught us how to communicate with developers by coding and designing. From very first workshop, She Codes got me caught up with fun while coding and motivated to keep learning by introducing us to opportunities we gain with newly acquainted skills.Thanks to everyone that made this happen!
She Codes is a great intensive learning experience and it is the perfect introduction to the code world. I'm looking forward to learn more from Matt and all the She Codes team.
I have never imagine I could be able to code and understand the web in 3 weeks. Homework were so fun to do and it was definitely worth it to come every Saturday from Porto to learn and to have this unique experience of learning from the Matt and his team. What an energy!
I had been told very good things about She Codes, yet it exceeded all my expectations! If you're new to coding, this is such a good way to get started. The course will give you a very good overview of how the Internet works, how different disciplines work together, and a very solid foundation if you want to keep learning. The course is fast paced and challenging, however there is always time to ask any doubts you may have, and we all helped each other. I couldn't be more happy for being part of She Codes 5.0 and I can't thank enough everyone in the team!
It was an amazing experience. I like the quality of the overall program. Every class was really well designed. You will be suprised how much you learn in short period of time. I highly recommend this workshop.
I learned more in 3 days of She Codes than in 2 months of online self-study. After a couple of (failed) attempts at trying to learn coding from scratch by following online tutorials, I realised I needed to try a different approach. I was excited to hear about She Codes and now I'm so grateful to be part of it: you're not only learning a new skill, but also joining a great community that keeps you engaged throughout the course.
I had an amazing experience and lot of fun! I am glad to have been given the opportunity of learn such interesting topics! Fully recommended :)
Was an excellent opportunity to learn about coding and develop my skills. This workshop will definitely make the difference in my professional life. I will highly recommended this workshop to all Women's i know :) The teachers did a great job, was amazing 👌🏿
What a journey! She Codes is a great opportunity for every woman that wants to understand more about coding and/or the world around it, whether she comes with existing knowledge or starts from scratch. There was so much to learn that it has certainly left me with a lot to think about - Thank you!
After these 3 sessions, all I have learnt feels like a long journey but truth is, it is because of all the useful insight and the content I was exposed to. It has been an important experience of integration and I can already feel that this is only the start of a new path.
Very nice experience, a good introduction to programming languages. An opportunity to learn something new.
She Codes made me realize that between me and the freedom I've been wondering about, there's no longer such a huge distance. If I applied with de conscienceness that everyone should learn how to code, during this experience I start enjoying a lot more than I expected it. And I see the future way clearly than I had, until now. Proudly saying, from now on: #ICode. 'cause you know what? The future is female. Thank you!
A great kick-starter for learning how to code. The team and the ladies were all awesome to get to know. I have definitely gained some great insights.
She Codes gave me a new understanding and perspective of our World. Unlimited possibilities to build exciting opportunities. I feel grateful for this wonderful Learning While Doing experience. Thumbs up to Matt and his volunteering Team. BRAVO She Codes! Long way to go. Many Blessings.
She Codes is definitely a great opportunity to empower women in tech! If you want to know more about coding surrounded by talented women, She Codes is the best first step and introduction you can possibly have. I’ve learn a lot during the workshops and I feel now ready to continue my coding journey. Thanks to She Codes team for your dedication and time. This program is a real gift!
What a great experience was She Codes ! I have begun this formation with the simple desire to understand what is coding ?, I'm ending the workshop with the ambition to learn even more that I learned ! Thanks to the workshop 5.0, I got the CSS, HTML and JavaScript bases and it's unbelievable what we can do with its ... I shall not hesitate to recommend She Codes to every one with motivation.
Such an amazing and challenging experience! In such a short time I learned more than I could learn during 2 months on my own. Thanks, she codes for giving me the chance to be a part of it.
She Codes is a great opportunity to take a first step into the world of coding by offering valuable hands-on insights into web development, design and product management including the necessary tools to use in real life. It has been a very demanding and fast-paced workshop but at the same time an extremely educative, inspiring and motivating experience for me. I highly recommend She Codes to every woman who wants to pursue a career in tech!
It's impressive how much we managed to learn in such a short time! Sometimes I got lost, because of the overwhelming amount of information presented, but in the end, with the help of everyone, I was able to get there. The workshop opened my eyes a little bit more to what programming is, and I feel more confident to venture further into it. I wouldn't think twice to recommend it to anyone who thinks they can't do it. I'm grateful to the whole She Codes team - you are the best!
I signed up for SHE CODES hoping to understand the basics of coding and maybe start my one website from scratch … but I left with much more. I learned how the internet works, some of the tools to do my own website, the 'where' to go to continue learning and improving my newest skills. Learned the basics of product management and to understand based on retrieved data what my clients want and what I can change. Not only was the workshop both inspiring and challenging but during the 3 days, I had the opportunity to network with 27 amazing women full of entrepreneurship ideas and dreams to make the difference. Matt and the rest of the team were great professors even talking about such complex themes. I would recommend this course to every woman I know that wants to understand more about coding.
She codes gave me insights, and motivation to learn even more, not only about coding but also about product management. The amazing teachers were always supportive and kept us engaged every Saturday. Every member of this organization is dedicated and are always ready to help. It was, without a doubt, a wonderful experience.
I really loved the easy accessible way in which Matt thought us the basic of Coding. I feel like I gained a lot of interesting insights and I cannot wait to start experimenting myself.
Highly recommended
I've had a lot of fun learning about coding, design and product management! It's amazing what you can do even with a few lines of code - now I have a much, much better understanding about the endless possibilities that tech can give us.
Highly recommended
She Codes it's a fast-paced workshop that gives you the perfect introduction to the coding world. Set in an inspiring environment, with a team of amazing teachers and surrounded by ambitious women, it's an wonderful experience that I highly recommend!
