Should I even be telling you this?
I mean I own a coding bootcamp.
The reality is that you don't need a degree OR a coding bootcamp to be a hire-able developer but there's a reason why the majority of software engineers have some formal education.
Let's go over a plan for you to learn the basics of web development on your own and whether or not a coding bootcamp makes sense for you or not.
If a coding bootcamp is for you - join me at Parsity.io 😎 and get a massive discount if you enroll by next week. I'm working 1 on 1 with the first 5 people to prep for the program!
Here's the vide on APIs I was talking about in the episode. Watch here.
