ChainShot

The Chainshot team has built a structured curriculum to help smart contract developers accelerate their journeys in this exciting, emerging industry. The curriculum is updated (in real-time!) to mirror the newest toolings and current industry best practices.... Read More Oh, Uniswap V3 was just released on Mainnet? Guess we'll be digging through those contracts one day during the final week! Be prepared for a very hands-on experience where you will be coding and improving each day. Perhaps just as important is the community of eth devs you will be joining; not only will you gain strong relationships with your classmates through remote learning, but the alumni network is equally strong; in addition to contributing to leading projects in the space, some have also worked with the Ethereum Foundation. I have an inkling that the material I learned during Chainshot's 10-week course will likely prove to have more tangible developer benefits than my graduate studies will. I loved my time at Chainshot, and I HIGHLY recommend it!

I had a wonderful experience with Dan and Cody, with the cohort and with the community that is building around. I think what stood out was the geniune excitement and fascination for blockchain development. This was inspiring. Also the guests that chainshot...

Shout out to Chainshot. I joined the programme with zero knowledge about technologies behind Blockchain or Ethereum, they understand this and they designed the curriculum in a way to take students like me from zero to a point where we can develop our...

I was just 5 months into coding, overall, and my classmate in the bootcamp was already a software engineer. It's safe to say that both of us got a ton out of the bootcamp. You're going to benefit from the bootcamp, no matter where you're at in your journey.... Read More The only challenge, with attending the bootcamp, is the time commitment. I completed the full-time bootcamp while attending summer classes at university. I'd say as long as you thoughtfully manage your time, what you learn in the bootcamp will actually stick once it has ended.

The bootcamp does a great job starting at the basics of the blockchain and gradually diving into more advanced topics as the week goes on. I learned a lot of how the blockchain works and how to interact with it. No Solidity knowledge is not a show stopper,... Read More the instructor does a good job moving the class along into new topics and is always available to assist. A good JavaScript background will help as the class is heavy front loaded with it and is important for developing the final project. All-in-all, a great experience and I would recommend to anyone who wants to learn about the blockchain and how to develop applications using it.

After doing a lot of research into which course was the best for me, I found Chainshot, and I'm glad I did! The course has opened me up to so many incredible opportunities, people, and knowledge that will remain with me for life. I was sceptical about... Read More "bootcamps" before enrolling into Dan and Cody's; however, I can say my time at Chainshot has felt more like an actual classroom! They have gone up and beyond what I was expecting from the classes, whether it be staying after class to help with annoying bugs in my code, creating custom tutorials for subjects in which I had an interest (beyond the course material), and or bringing in awesome guest speakers from various organisations within the ecosystem. After completing the course, I know I'm prepared to take on the projects I once thought I would never have been able, and I believe the value this Bootcamp has brought me will continue to benefit me for a future in the space.

The curriculum is well put together and engaging. Their course platform is excellently constructed and well suited to doing actual coding. The instructors do a great job of introducing topics gradually and then building on topics with coding examples... Read More and practice. They're always available to help and answer questions in Discord as well.

I took a bunch of computer science classes in college - it seems like the common core structure of these classes is for a professor to lecture at the front and *show* how code is written without any way of the student being able to interact - this is... Read More an outdated format, the team at ChainShot figured out that it is vastly more advantageous to bring the student into that coding session - so the student still sees and learns from the professor's code lecture and then can immediately apply what they saw in their own coding sandbox! Not only is this an outstanding blockchain bootcamp, ChainShot is pushing the bounds of traditional computer science education altogether.

I found ChainShot while I wasn't even looking for an Ethereum Developer Bootcamp. At first, I was drawn in and excited by the JavaScript crash course and then as I discovered more of what ChainShot was about, I decided to really challenge myself and just... Read More dive into the bootcamp. My experience was slightly different from the average because we were a very small cohort & spanned 10 weeks of part-time coursework, covering both JavaScript and Solidity. It quickly became clear to me that JS is the glue which can bind a lot of various libraries and existing software together, to achieve a more cohesive and somewhat sane developer experience - provided that you have someone to show you and explain how to get the best results out of what you're using. Which is precisely what Dan Nolan and ChainShot provided for me, over the course of the bootcamp. From fledgling steps in the syntax and application of JavaScript, to writing a complete dapp running on an Ethereum testnet in ten weeks! The curriculum was well paced, and so thoroughly interactive that it could not help but carry me along with it seamlessly from zero to Ethereum Developer, just as advertised. I have nothing but the utmost respect for Dan Nolan, he is a wonderfully genuine and thoughtful teacher, whose enthusiasm for programming has made a lifelong impression on me, at least. Every question I had, Dan could guide me to an answer. Sometimes it took some creative explanation and the reading of documentation intensified, but I never felt let down, left behind, or sidelined. I was able to present my projects, and gained SO much valuable knowledge and experience that I would heartily recommend ChainShot to absolutely everyone who wants to learn how to work with blockchains, specifically Ethereum. I have recently landed a position with a relatively young but rather well positioned web3 startup. I owe much of that success to the mentoring, support, friendship and presence of the ChainShot team. Now let's take back the internet, together!
