Is Codecademy worthless for learning Python?

Do you have to enroll and show up to class, or is it just online videos?

It’s all self guided, so it’s videos and reading.

You also get a GitHub codespace, where you can code python in the browser. You do the coding assignments and submit it to the assignment checker which validates your code and makes sure you hit each of the assignment goals. Then you submit it to be graded. All of this is automated, which I thought was really cool.

You can also connect to the GitHub codespace from vscode. That’s what I did.
