Having just accepted my first job as a Software Engineer at a start-up in Atlanta exactly one month after the end of my cohort I feel ready to review DigitalCrafts! This bootcamp is fantastic. I chose it over the other ATL options for three main reasons:
1. Length - 16 weeks felt like nothing. I can't even imagine completing a bootcamp in less time. I feel I absolutely needed that extra month compared to other bootcamps to really solidify my knowledge and context...
Having just accepted my first job as a Software Engineer at a start-up in Atlanta exactly one month after the end of my cohort I feel ready to review DigitalCrafts! This bootcamp is fantastic. I chose it over the other ATL options for three main reasons:
1. Length - 16 weeks felt like nothing. I can't even imagine completing a bootcamp in less time. I feel I absolutely needed that extra month compared to other bootcamps to really solidify my knowledge and contextualize all the different technologies. This give you time to review, retain, and continue to deepen all you've learned in a supportive environment. That extra month goes a long way in developing relationships with the instructors, your classmates, and the program staff, which makes DigitalCrafts feel very personal and invested.
2. Personal Touch - Digital Crafts from the start was in constant communication with me and took the time to seriously consider my personal goals - an amazing aspect which I didn't get from any other bootcamp I looked into. Having moved to ATL just before my cohort began, many students, developer-in-residences, and even the staff themselves, spent their time answering all my questions and even allowing me to sit in and observe a class one afternoon after a current group of students had lunch with me, told me all about their experiences, and answered all my questions - unplanned and just because DC attracts wonderful people. During my cohort, many other potential students can to tour the classrooms and we'd often hear Rob, our instructor chatting to them, telling them it definitely IS possible to teach yourself and it totally depends on what style of learning is best for you - very refreshing to hear! It's very obvious that Rob, Jake, and Max don't take your concerns lightly and they absolutely do not try to sell you on this bootcamp - they want you to be successful in your own way.
3. Full-Stack Curriculum - You're learning how websites are made from top to bottom. I feel a front-end or back-end only curriculum doesn't allow contextualization of what you've learned. If you are thinking about investing so much time/money/energy to learn how websites are built, wouldn't you want to FULLY understand it and not just one-half of the equation? I think for me, as a beginner into the tech world, without understanding BOTH client and server side programming, I wouldn't have a satisfactory grasp of how development actually works. We learn how to host websites on Amazon Web Services (AWS), build the back-end with python and node, and use javascript (react and jquery too) on the front-end. From what I experienced in my interviews after the program, if you want to compete with CS-degree holders, this is VERY requisite, important knowledge.
Of course there are many other good things I could say about the bootcamp. To have a community of peers while you immerse yourself in something so new and challenging is so important and I think DC does a great job of attracting wonderful people. There was definitely room for improvements including more structure in the back-end part of the curriculum and a more holistic lesson on web development with Python versus just programming games. Our final project was 3-weeks in duration. Personally I would have preferred 2 and used the extra week to continue learning Python or even just repeating/reviewing important concepts such as callbacks, promises, or higher-order functions. I do feel some of the more advanced students were given more personal attention to their questions than those struggling, which ended up somewhat isolating those who learned to withhold their questions or ended up turning to peers instead, for help.
Do not expect this or any other bootcamp to suddenly make you a rockstar. Expect to struggle and feel frustration constantly - that's what learning feels like. Expect to stay late and come in early. Let DC give you a structured learning environment but know that to be successful you can't rely on it to give you ALL the knowledge. Learning about topics not covered in the curriculum. Buy a udemy course and learn from that simultaneous. Expect that there is a world outside of DC with which to complement your bootcamp education immensly. Go to meet-ups, send out 5 cold-call emails a week to people at companies you find interesting, talk to former students, be humble and show that you want to learn. I was able to negotiate a 8% increase in my starting salary with ZERO job experience because I proved I was committed to the extra-curricular side projects and networks I've involved myself with outside of my bootcamp education in order to keep learning.
DigitalCrafts was a fantastic experience and I'm happy to have achieved all the goals I had set when deciding to attend.
