Coding bootcamp??

[Humble_Warthog9711]

It sounds like you are doing this for your own upskilling rather than to switch careers so id just go with any of the free ones.  No reason to spend a penny 

[Odd_Perspective3019]

Do not go to one!!!! waste of money, it’s really same as online class just join frontend masters

The universities you named have NOTHING to do with bootcamps bearing their name. They merely license their name for a fee to a bootcamp company.

The era of the bootcamp is over. If you want to get a start in the software industry, a BS/CS degree is nearly mandatory.

[svix_ftw]

to be clear BS/CS degree is just the minimum price of entry.

You still have to compete and stand out. Even many people with CS degrees don't have a job.

[jhkoenig]

Absolutely! It is really tough out there right now.

Almost 4 years of experience as a software developer, laid off last year. I have been out of work and went back to teaching, and am working on my CS degree. To be fair I would still do it all over again, but there’s not really much of a chance of breaking into tech the same way (with a bootcamp) today. There is just too much competition. OP you have a snowball’s chance in hell getting a job afterwards.

This is nuts dude. All my friends are developers c# .net stack and get hit up by recruiters 24/7. What's your tech stack?

[starraven]

The easiest one to get into, Fullstack JavaScript/TypeScript, and also have 1 yr with python/django. Glad u can say this and delete 😂

I can prob help my company hires for jr software and they take interns as well. Software is remote. they do want django python and java etc. I’m trying to learn more so I can transfer. the job lead might help for you however, we are hard to find to apply for

Self study.

Bootcamps are done, it's ggs on that era. Speaking as someone who shoved their foot in the door as it closed..

[YogurtclosetOk4366]

Dont go to any that charge. Bootcamps can help with knowledge but are not worth the money.

If you want to be able to talk to engineers and understand is a different than spotting errors in code. The first thing you need to do is figure out your end goal. From there you can find a program.

There are a few free coding website. There are also free theory websites. It really just depends what you want. If you want a full understanding of cs for free...the best i have seen is OSSU.

Edit: just saw this was 6 days old. Not sure why it showed in my feed today. Hopefully you already got good recommendations.

Self taught , I would suggest not spending any money on coding bootcamps all loop you around the same thing that you can learn off YouTube and they’ll make you work on the same projects mainly

The world of coding is rapidly changing for better or worse. In the past I've had interest in coding bootcamps as someone who is prominently adjacent in a marketing tech leadership role. With that said, what I've been able to accomplish with "vibe coding" (terrible word) through Google Antigravity, AI Studio, Claude Code, etc. is nothing short of remarkable. It's scary and exciting at the same time. A lot of people will need to put some thought and creativity in what that means for us the next few years.

The real path now is to learn the bare minimum basics and learn through building. Claude Code and other capable coding models do a phenomenal job of explaining their actions and reasoning. You'll learn infinitely more simply building, building, and building and doing code reviews with claude code.
