This platform is amazing

This platform is amazing. The courses are fun and engaging. The hands on approach has definitely helped me in my coding journey. I highly recommend this platform to anyone who is tired of the follow along video courses.

Extremely hands on job training on…

Extremely hands on job training on every course. The Very best I every had.
The paths for each of the careers are designed to maximize learning.
Gamification encourages spending more time studying, and rewards for daily streaks and correct answers provide even further motivation.
I recommend it.

I have always struggled to get started…

I have always struggled to get started with learning new concepts in general, but specifically programming. I, personally, respond most effective to things that have been "gamified". I'm just a competitive person I guess...

However, once I got into the courses, the content on its own is just fantastic. The modules challenge you to thing critically, but don't leave you hanging when you run into issues. And the instructions aren't just a "copy and paste" lab. I've learned an incredible amount and the rate at which they release new courses is unmatched. I will continue to be subscribed.

Remmy the rat approved

Really friendly and helpful people, actually feels like an interactive lesson rather than Sitting Infront of a screen and pressing a button whenever the teacher/program tells you to.

I love the gamification of Boot.dev

I love the gamification of Boot.dev. I had a lot of fun doing the first few courses and projects. Then, things got harder and I started relying on their discord channel, and their AI system for answering questions and creating additional challenges for tough topics. The combination is fantastic for pushing through tough spots. The CEO even shows up in chat to help.

In short, great

The course in general is really intuitive and offers various alternatives to learn topics (such as challenges and Boots), and even though things get more difficult as you progress, struggle is where most of the learning process happens. Loved the experience so far.

Awesome experience

It’s been great so far. It made getting back into coding way easier and fun. Cheaper than getting a handful of courses on Udemy or the like. Highly recommend!

Great platform to learn and get inspired!

For me this has been a great way to learn programming. Before i knew about boot.dev i only had some experience with excel and spss. But i had some time over and got recommended this website and i must say that it is really good. It has learned me python, linux, git, sql and more! And the best thing is that it has really inspired me to learn more about tech. And for me it has been worth every penny. I would recommend to try out boot.dev!

What I like the most about Boot.dev is…

What I like the most about Boot.dev is its perfect balance between solid CS fundamentals and practical knowledge for real world applications. I also love how every chapter is fragmented into tiny lessons with exercises, so you have a fast feedback loop and a real feel for what you are learning. Excellent platform!

Amazing, 100% worth it.

Boot.dev has been great. Supporting environment, interesting and engaging content. Great customer service always available to help not to mention the discord group chat is another invaluable resource. I have been working with quite a few platforms to get a grasp on the basics in the system systems involved in the tech world and boot.gov is really fun. I like the animations and the art style. I definitely keeps you coming back for more they are constantly adding new courses and learning paths so that’s really great as well. It also currently is one of the benefits included in the get hub student developer pack so overall I think it’s been a great experience getting to learn through them. I can’t say I’ve had many experiences in my life where customer service reaches out so fast and in such a great spirits that I even assumed the email reply I received was an automatic generic out of office we will get back to you soon type of email. I highly recommend boot.dev and I’m glad to have been able to find them and make them a part of my curriculum.
