I've tried to learn to code for years, but struggled with keeping up the motivation. Nucamp has given me a structure that is flexible but keeps me accountable, and I've learned so much in the past couple of months.
The instructors are knowledgeable and so willing to see you succeed, the content is bite sized and the challenges give you enough confidence to figure out what you may not know. It's an amazing bootcamp and it's not going to bankrupt you to do it.- Kevin Mejia-VanegasStudent • New York CityVerified by LinkedInJan 05, 2024Overall ExperienceInstructorsCurriculumJob Assistance
Not Worth It
If you like paying an exorbitant amount of money for YouTube videos this course is for you. If you want to drop out they will say you can drop out but they will continue to charge you as part of their policy. These were my adviser's exact words:
"I am sorry for the way you feel and how you perceive the experience."

This bootcamp is amazing I never thought I would be able to learn Web Development in such a short amount of time. I recommend for full time workers to set time aside to do the work and also look into whatever you are learning on the web as there is so much information. I can honestly say reading the documentation for HTML, CSS, JavaScript, React, React Nativ now I can understand what I am looking for and put it to good use. I tried to learn on my own for the past year and Nucamp has helped me to understand in such short amount of time. I highly recommend it to my family and friends, it's a good skill to have. - JenGraduate • AtlantaVerified by LinkedInDec 18, 2023Overall ExperienceInstructorsCurriculumJob AssistanceN/A
Good foundational experience
the affordability and flexibility were my greatest decision factors. I appreciate how helpful the staff was to accommodate my particular needs as I had attempted bootcampa before but due to circumstances ended up leaving because I couldbt be as present at certain times as required. I felt my teachers were invested in us as a cohort and many took time to provide extra support as needed through the courses.

Unleashing My Development Potential: A Personal Journey with Nucamp's Front-End + Mobile Development Course
When I first embarked on my coding journey, I knew that mastering React and React Native was crucial to achieve my dreams of becoming a proficient front-end and mobile developer. Nucamp's Front-End + Mobile Development course not only fulfilled my expectations but surpassed them in ways I could have never imagined.

Nucamp's Front-End + Mobile Development course not only fulfilled my expectations but surpassed them in ways I could have never imagined.
From the very beginning, the course structure and curriculum were tailored to provide hands-on learning experiences. As I delved into the world of React, the concepts I once found daunting became clearer with each week. The guidance and expertise of the instructors were invaluable, and their passion for teaching inspired me to push my boundaries and embrace new challenges fearlessly.
What truly set Nucamp apart was the sense of community that developed among learners. The collaborative nature of the course encouraged us to work together, share ideas, and support one another. We celebrated each other's victories and rallied together during moments of confusion. This supportive environment fueled my motivation and reminded me that I was not alone on this transformative journey.
Throughout the course, I was amazed by the real-world applicability of the projects we undertook. From building interactive web applications to crafting sleek and functional mobile apps with React Native, every task honed my skills and built my confidence. The sense of accomplishment upon completing each project was indescribable and instilled a newfound belief in my abilities.
Beyond the technical aspects, the course taught me the significance of version control using Git and GitHub. This invaluable skill set not only streamlined my development process but also showcased my professionalism to potential employers.
Above all, the sense of personal growth and empowerment I experienced with Nucamp was unparalleled. React and React Native, once elusive concepts, became my creative playground. The course ignited a passion for coding that drives me to explore new possibilities with every line of code I write.
In the end, Nucamp's Front-End + Mobile Development course not only nurtured my love for development but also provided me with a supportive community that feels like a second family. I now stand equipped with the tools to carve my path in the world of web and mobile development, and I owe it all to Nucamp and its phenomenal instructors.
To anyone seeking a transformative learning experience in React and React Native, I wholeheartedly recommend Nucamp. Prepare to unleash your true potential, learn alongside inspiring peers, and embark on a journey that will shape you both professionally and personally. Nucamp has been nothing short of a catalyst for my dreams, and I am forever grateful for this extraordinary adventure. - David HornGraduate • SeattleVerified by GitHubJun 28, 2023Overall ExperienceInstructorsCurriculumJob AssistanceN/A
Nucamp was good.
After decades as a curious hobbyist coder, and a few years as a serious self-learning developer hopeful, I was stuck. I found Nucamp to be just what I was looking for. Affordable. Knowledgable instructors eager to lavish their time on you if you need it, but also nudging you first to learn how to figure things out on your own. A friendly and active community that you can keep after the camp is over. I was familiar with all the technologies we covered before I came to the camp.

Knowledgable instructors eager to lavish their time on you if you need it, but also nudging you first to learn how to figure things out on your own. A friendly and active community that you can keep after the camp is over. I was familiar with all the technologies we covered before I came to the camp. What nucamp provided was someone else's hard deadline, live human assistance, a team, and most importantly for me, the opportunity to help someone else work through their code. I think I learned the most there.
No graduate is ready for their job as they walk across the stage to receive their diploma. But hopefully they have been given the tools and skills necessary to become so and continue to grow into their field.

It's effective, flexible, and affordable
Nucamp is great option for learning core concepts of front-end (I cannot speak to the back-end), and gets you hands on experience with projects, challenges, and teamwork. I enrolled because I was look for an affordable, flexible program that guided through material with the help of a dedicated team and instructor, and I found that in Nucamp. The instructors are very kind, knowledgeable, and ready to help whenever you need.

I enrolled because I was look for an affordable, flexible program that guided through material with the help of a dedicated team and instructor, and I found that in Nucamp. The instructors are very kind, knowledgeable, and ready to help whenever you need.
My primary criticism is for the video material within the curriculum, as I feel it moves relatively quickly without forcing you to spend time with the implementing the concepts. However, an ambition to spend lots of time learning on your own will solve this problem. Also, I wish the program would have compelled me to use GitHub more. It's a powerful tool that is used by many companies, and it would be very helpful to have more training in it.
Overall, my experience has been very positive, and I would recommend Nucamp to anybody looking for a flexible and afforable bootcamp. - Nirel ChuaLead Instructor at Discover Coding • Student • Front End Web and Mobile Development • OnlineVerified by GitHubJun 22, 2023Overall ExperienceInstructorsCurriculumJob AssistanceN/A

Completing Nucamp's 'Responsive with Bootstrap' course was a fantastic experience. The curriculum was comprehensive, covering the essential aspects of web development. I gained valuable skills in designing responsive websites, leveraging Bootstrap's components and utilizing JavaScript for interactivity. The supportive instructor and hands-on learning approach made the course engaging and rewarding, setting a strong foundation for my future as a web developer.
