I joined the web dev fundamental bootcamp a few weeks ago and I'm not disappointed at all! I wasn't sure if I could trust the reviews, and it turns out you can. If all goes well I'll be starting the full stack bootcamp afterwards, wish me luck! - AnonymousAug 10, 2020Overall ExperienceInstructorsCurriculumJob Assistance

My Nucamp experience was great! Instructor was always available to assist and very friendly.

Just graduated - not a fan
Nucamp is okay if you need structure to stay on track, or if you're working full time but still want to learn some basics of web dev. Besides that, it's not worth the price. The backend course on Node.js/Express/MongoDB in particular was the worst of my experience. They just breeze over the surface and after taking the entire course, they never actually implement the demo project into something production worthy.

Besides that, it's not worth the price. The backend course on Node.js/Express/MongoDB in particular was the worst of my experience. They just breeze over the surface and after taking the entire course, they never actually implement the demo project into something production worthy. My instructor went out of his way to show us how to actually connect our backend code to frontend and publish it online. Nucamp base material just gives you a .zip file of demo code and lets you figure these rather important steps out for yourself.
The videos (hosted on youtube) are poorly edited and "patched." The volume will change during videos, or the speaker will repeat the same phrase more than once where the video was edited. I took note of these, and sent them to the school, and 3 months later they're still sending students thru the course with these goofs uncorrected. I'm not a fan.
I originally took the backend course in March 2020, but stopped due to my instructor being lazy and inadequate in his effort to teach/review. I retook the course in July 2020, and just finished this past weekend. Don't go into Nucamp expecting it to be a real bootcamp. It is not. It's very much part time, and the knowledge you walk away with at the end reflects this.
Besides this one terrible instructor, the other 4 were generally knowledgable and seemed happy to be teaching. I have more good to say about these instructors than I do for the series of youtube videos that compromises what you learn during the "bootcamp."
If you're really interested in Nucamp, I suggest sticking to the front end material.
If you appreciated my honest feedback, use code GW9PKP when enrolling.Ludo Fourrage of Nucamp

Thank you for taking the time to offer your feedback. We are currently updating the NodeJS course to include more content, which will address the point you are making. I'm pleased to hear that you enjoyed 4 out of 5 of our instructors, and hope that you provided your honest feedback weekly so that we could offer the 5th instructor additional coaching to improve his/her delivery.
Lastly it's good to see that you seem to have liked the experience enough to encourage others to register and offer your referral code to earn money back as they do.
