Attended Makers as a career switcher (finance) with some very limited coding experience (HTML, CSS and a little JS). The course was fantastic in terms of making you a rounded developer. You learn the fundamentals of development using Ruby, which is a great language to learn development in as it’s very human readable. You get taught how to TDD (Test Driven Development) which has been adopted by a lot of the bigger companies and also design patterns (such as MVC) which helps you think about code structure and design. The projects are fun and really test your understanding (and sometimes your patience). Also the boot camp offers and emotional intelligence curriculum which further helps when working in teams and pair programming (both are practiced on the course) and how you can become more mindful of other people and get the best out of working with them. Along side the daily meditation (great way to refresh for the afternoon) and the twice weekly Yoga sessions, really gives that extra to an already great course. Would definitely recommend.
