Thinkful's Software Engineering Immersion course was a rigorous, insightful, valuable and worthwhile experience. I was taught the in's and out's of modern day web application development, using HTML, CSS, JavaScript, and PostgreSQL databases, with a focus on React client-side and Node.js server-side programming. 5 days a week (sometimes 6, if I felt I needed to study more!), for 5 months, I received tutoring from seasoned developers and a dedicated personal mentor. I learned so much during my time there and definitely recommend it to anyone that is looking into a computer programming career, but cannot use conventional routes, such as a computer science degree. The support students get, from the prep work before admittance, to career services leading up to your first breakthrough in the web development industry, Thinkful shines in a sea of coding bootcamps that are becoming so prevalent now. The $1500 per month living stipend was a huge help and the staff really cares about what they do. The only gripe I had was how I went about my first capstone project towards the conclusion of the course: I used a newer development feature for my React application, and was forced to refactor it to use the way we were taught to in the course. Other than that, top-notch experience and would recommend it to anyone that is interested in getting into coding.
