This has been such an incredible learning experience! I never thought in 3 weeks time I'd understand as much as I do now when it comes to coding. Thank you Matt & team for creating a platform like #shecodes to close the gender gap in this industry! I'm excited to continue learning. -

This workshop was awesome & I had so much fun doing it! I feel so proud of myself after only 3 weeks of training. I totally recommend this workshop to anyone who is curious about coding. Thanks for the great experience and support, Matt and SheCodes team! -

Very well structured workshop
The workshop was very well structured. What I liked the most is that after every lesson there was a practical exercise. I also enjoyed weekly projects where you could implement everything what we learned over the week. -

I've been interested in coding for almost my whole life, but was scared it would be far too complicated to ever learn. SheCodes has helped me realize that coding isn't all that hard after all! There was always support on the SheCodes Slack group if it was needed.
There's something very rewarding about building something from the ground up, and I definitely felt a huge sense of pride and accomplishment every time I completed a challenge. I'm really excited to continue learning more going forward! -

A great way to learn code as a super beginner
I enjoyed this course so much! I liked how Matt will encourage you to look for solutions yourself but also provide a helping hand. I am excited to continue the SheCodes Plus course. -

Intro to Coding
This workshop blew me away! The curriculum thoroughly introduces HTML, CSS, and JS. I especially enjoyed the structure and available resources. Each lesson includes a video and a challenge to practice the learned skills. The course also grants access to a messaging software that allows collaboration between students. I will continue to learn and practice more about coding! -

Intro Workshop is Perfect for Beginners
Read more Read less of Alyssa H's review
I started SheCodes with no prior coding knowledge. I had tried online learning for other subjects in the past and didn't have much success; I thought I was just someone who could only learn in person. I decided to try the online course anyway and I am SO GLAD I did. The course is well laid out. The videos are well done and I loved doing the challenges and homework to practice and reinforce the lessons. The best part of this course was that it was actually fun and gave me the confidence to continue on my coding journey. I'm excited to see where these skills take me and I would definitely recommend SheCodes to anyone who wants to get started. -

SheCodes... because she can!

If you are thinking about trying coding, but don't know where to start - you just found it! SheCodes is all a beginner is looking for: friendly and supportive learning environment; structured material, represented in a clear way; challenges adequate to your current level; learning path constructed in the way which allows you to apply fresh knowledge right away, so it doesn't get cover in dust on your memory shelves. You will have great instructor Matt and friendly supportive team on Slack, who won't let you feel alone and lost in the world of coding.
I participated in online weekend workshop and discovered in just two days that if you really set your mind on it, coding is not a rocket science and it is a lot of fun!
That saying, I highly recommend SheCodes.👍

Highly recommend!

I was hesitant to start learning how to code because I felt like there would be a huge barrier to learning the basics. Matt Delac, the instructor for SheCodes, was wonderful! The lectures are very engaging, easy to understand, and relatable, and the challenges after each lecture kept my progress in check. This made it so easy to be motivated and make sure I understood each new concept before moving on to the next one. It was the perfect intro to programming and now I feel like I have a really solid foundation! -

The best choice i made!
I participated in the SheCodes 7.0 event over the weekend (4-5 April) and i have never had a better learning expirence. The challenges get harder but you always have full support from the Team and other students.
I wish we could do this every weekend, i mean, there's always something else you could learn, right?
The workshop was fully online and it all went smothly.
Highly recommend! -

❗❗For start, I just wanto to thank to the amazing team of SheCodes 💜
I will be honest with you (or whatever is reading this) SheCodes has one of the bests teams I've ever seen in a long time 👌 They work all together just for one propose: teaching us (and well, very well) coding 💻
This intensive workshop during this weekend it was one of the amazest I had (and I took several courses online that meets my interests), and this one...oh guys... I just have to tell you, is by far the best 💯
Although, this weekend workshop it was supposed to be with presential learning, I just have to congratulate ALL THE TEAM 👏 for the speed of adaptation to make it an online course because of covid-19, they were so fast to adapat but they didn't lose the efficiency and the content of ANYTHING, once however 💪
I'm more than proud that I had the chance to see such a great team to work in this way, and thank to them they taught me things in a way that I won't forget for sure 🤓
✔ And from here, it's always up ⬆ and I hope it will be with SheCodes 👩💻✔ -

SheCode Workshop
Read more Read less of Raffaela's review
Two days full immersion in coding! It was a worthy experience. Back in days, I had some HTML and CSS classes but they were teaching in a traditional way, projecting example on the whiteboard, almost no practice. Because of the way they were teaching I gave up the idea of learning how to code. I decide to take this 2-days workshop because I was curious and I am looking for a new job opportunity. It was a great idea! This workshop was online and Matt was sharing his screen whit us while he was explaining HTML, CSS, and JavaScript, it was easy to follow. Another advantage of this workshop: we did a lot of exercises, and it was great! Because the only way to learn how to code is practice, practice and practice. -

Jacqueline
Great experience!
If you want to start learning code but are a bit scared of it, this is a great beginning! The atmosphere is light and funny, which makes something that looks so complicated, much more simple. Matt is a great instructor, and the course itself gives you enough skills to start practicing on your own! I would definitely recommend it! -

SheCodes provides great skills for women learning how to code. It is really amazing to see the final project of everyone knowing that the majority of the girls didn't know anything about coding at the beginning of the workshop. For me, most of all, SheCodes gave great motivation. It helped me trust in myself and my choice to become a developer. Overall an amazing experience. I will definitely miss it. -

Very informative and useful course!

I really enjoyed attending SheCodes. It's a great way to start building your knowledge of programming. You will learn the basics of HTML, CSS, and JavaScript but more important it's that you also are going to start to apply there this new knowledge with exercises and projects. SheCodes is a course that helps to start your path in programming and in the tech field, with knowledge, exercises, and tips about the labor market. -
Ana Rita Sanches
Best Workshop EVER!
Read more Read less of Ana Rita Sanches's review
Participating in the SheCodes workshop was a great experience, not only because I learned to code, something that used to be a bit scary to me, but also because I got the chance to meet other girls who were also looking to know more about coding. The great thing about this workshop is that there are a lot of challenges during the day that allow you to follow the classes, and with the help of the other girls participating or even the volunteers (who are incredible!), you don't get behind. Besides, Matt is a great instructor and is willing to answer all the questions that might come up. You also have the opportunity of discussing career paths, since there are people from different backgrounds, who can give you great advice or even people who dared to change their studies/profession after attending SheCodes. In the end, there is an awesome feeling of accomplishment because, in just two days, you are capable of understanding something that used to be confusing and actually be successful at it! 😁 -

Beginner Coding Workshop for Women
This is a very well designed workshop that gives us a brief but complete overview of the many tools that web development can offer and also the many career possibilities that can open up if we are willing to invest consistently in a certain direction. -

SheCodes by Matt Delac
Read more Read less of Ana Knittel's review
I have been in an intense weekend doing a short course about starting programming in HTML, CSS and JavaScript.
I am a Chemical Engineer willing to change my life. So, I was a bit lost on this world of new opportunities.
With SheCodes, I found that I am really passionate about programming and although it was only two days, it was fully enough to decide that this will be my next step in my life: Learn Programming.
So, I cannot wait until SheCodes Plus starts! Congrats to Matt Delac! -
Lorenna Vieira
Great learning for only a weekend
It was very interesting to see how much can we do when focusing only on learning how to code. Matt created a very well structured weekend course that gives you the basic notion of creating a webpage.
The course is affordable and the pace is good even to someone that never got in touch with coding before.

Alexandra Paulo Oliveira
My experience - SheCodes
I highly recommend anyone interested to take this course. It was a wonderful and a pleasant way to be introduced to the world of coding. You quickly begin to know how to program. Matt teaches it in a simple way, step by step. You quickly learn what you thought it was unthinkable at the outset to achieve in such a short time.

What a challege
Read more Read less of Ana Santos's review
- Portuguese teacher;
- Some skils in design tool;
- starting a Digital marketing course
Absolutely nothing related with coding and Computer language. So why not a new challenge? It was a completly mindset for me and very challegund, but the way how the course is planned help us and easily take us to upper steps quite fast. It mainly gives you the curiosity of knowing more and i'm considering taking the SheCodes plus :)

SheCodes Workshop - A weekend of intense learning
I really liked SheCodes workshop because it is a weekend of intense learning of HTML, CSS and JS. SheCodes has an affordable price and it is suitable for beginners.
Matt Delac is very didactic and caring, his team was always ready to help. This event gave me energy and enthusiasm to invest more in this career. -

Hands-on and added value output
Read more Read less of Mariana Trigo's review
SheCodes is a 2 days hands-on workshop where you will learn the basics of HTML, CSS and JavaScript.
The course is very well divided and for each part you will have small exercises to apply what you just learn.
Matt is a phantastic speaker and mentor, he sets a great pace during the 2 days. There is homework to do and a final project to submit in the end, a Landing page, which you will be able to complete after the 2 days.
It was indeed a great experience, due to the subjects I know understand better to discuss with the engineers on my company but also due to being able to code between women, seeing it happening side-by-side with them. It's magical, very powerfull.

really good workshop which gives a great foundation and makes you think about your future
Read more Read less of Marisol's review
I wish I had made this course or something similar when I was back in school. The workshop gives a nice overview of what coding is, how easy it could actually be if you're patient and how it can open doors in your career. I highly recommend this course, at least knowing the basics since then you'll understand how important it is to know this basic stuff in this tech era. It'll be 2020 in one month! everyone should be learning this in school!!

First steps into coding
Read more Read less of Andreia Oliveira's review
I have just completed the SheCodes in Lisbon. I am very happy with the progress we made in a weekend. The course is very well structured: it is fast-paced, but with breaks to assimilate content and room for questions. The homework and final project are also a great tool to verify our learning and test it by ourselves- should we have any question the team is there for us. The staff was very helpful and attentive. I always wanted to learn how to code, and this course, by being hands-on-approach, demystified difficulties that I had. I highly recommended it! Moreover, this course creates an inspiring and thriving community I am glad to be taking part in.

Good initiation to code
Read more Read less of Suzana Gonçalves's review
I went to Shecodes workshop on this week-end because I wanted to discover how code works since IT is more and more on our lives and, to meet people in the code industry to understand what they really do.
Well it turns out that it was more than that, not only I learn the basics but I also tried on some code and met very interesting people (attendees, former shecodes students and Matt). It's a very intensive workshop, don't get discouraged if you don't get all of it on the moment.
Obviously, you can't learn how to code in a week-end but it shows you how to get to it and gives you some advises. After the workshop, you will know if code is your thing or not.
Matt (the "teacher") transmitted his passion for code and was very welcoming; and Sofia (a former student from shecodes who became a Developer) was very helpful, transmitted as well her passion for code and shared her experience.
I really enjoyed the workshop; I speak several languages and coding may be the next one. It was definitely a good experience for me.

"It's not easy but it's not rocket science!"
Read more Read less of Tânia Nóbrega's review
I had an awesome experience with SheCodes. It was a two days workshop with a total of 12 hours, plus the homework and final project which consists in developing a landing page.
The two days are intensive, which makes it challenging to keep yourself on top of what is being taught and it might be confusing if you get distracted for a while.
It's a lot of information to take in, but even at a fast pace the sessions are well organized and Matt (teacher) was able to make it always interesting, so you don't have to worry about getting bored at anytime.
You'll have exercises during the sessions and technical assistants that will help you if you have any doubts. Everything happens really quickly and it will keep you on your toes to get everything done.
For someone that has zero experience in programming it was a challenge, but in the end i felt like I was able to leave with a good sense of every subject that I learned which made me very curious to keep searching and practising.
The overall environment was amazing! At the end of each day we'll have time to talk with our colleagues and the SheCodes team. It was nice talking with everyone specially because we all had different backgrounds.
I strongly recommend SheCodes if you're ready for a new challenge! Like Matt said "It's not easy but it's not rocket science!". -
Gina M.
Best Front-end development intro course I've taken
Read more Read less of Gina M.'s review
I honestly came out of this 2-day workshop with SO much more confidence and knowledge about front-end development—particularly Javascript. I have taken a total of 3 in-person web development courses:
1) University course
2) General Assembly
3) SheCodesThis was the only one where I felt that I truly understood Javascript, which was my end goal. I HIGHLY recommend this course because for the value and cost you cannot go wrong.
Matt conducts the workshop with humor, knowledge, no-nonsense, and ACTUAL quality control. You can't get your certificate unless you complete the final project, which I feel really ensures that there is actual meaning behind the certificate of completion, unlike a lot of other certification courses.
I'm definitely considering doing the SheCodes plus once I finish my other course, since I want to explore more front-end :)
Thank you to the SheCodes team for the wonderful experience. -
Lívia Jambo
Great experience!
I attended SheCodes Workshop in Lisbon and I just loved it ! I was really curious about coding, but I was also a little bit afraid that I wouldn't be able to understand it. I had a great time during the classes and, most important, I found it is not that hard since it was really well explained. I hope I can learn more in the next classes.

Maria Geadas
Ladies, let's go!
Oh yes, if you, beginners like myself, think you are coming for lectures about coding, get prepared to "get your hands dirty"! You'll find yourselves actually coding since the first day. No fear (no time for it), when in panic, you just look around, and help will come. and after it, you'll probably want to keep on coding...

SheCodes Lisbon - September
Read more Read less of Renata Dias's review
I took the 2 days workshop in Lisbon in September and it was great! I'd had already had some experience with coding in college, but only somewhat superficial. Coming from so many different places and backgrounds, it was amazing on how much progress we all made in just two days. The environment was pretty relaxed and everyone from the event organization was super nice and always available to help. For women who are interested in learning more about coding, I think this workshop is a great way to start!
