Great work!
FreeCodeCamp
In the last post, I have
spoken about FreeCodeCamp. Today, I will
explain a little more about it. FreeCodeCamp is a non-profit organization created by Quincy Larson that
is made up of a learning web platform, forum and blog that
intends to teach web development to anyone.
It
is a learning web platform
that teaches through the tasks that the students
have to complete and still it trains them for interviews.
If the person has any doubts, he is encouraged to search and to ask to other developers. Thus, It can simulate
the professional
progression of a developer.
Currently, It offers six
certificates: Responsive Web Design, Algorithms And Data Structures, Front End Libraries, Data Visualization, Apis And Microservices and Information Security And Quality Assurance.
Basically, web development is
taught in two parts, Front End and Back End.
Front End is introduced with the languages HTML, CSS.
It is also presented in frameworks and libraries like BootStrap, JQuery and React.
The Back End section offers the concept of the version control with Git and Heroku cloud platform as
a service (PaaS) for
running applications. The student
s also train with NodeJS framework and MongoDB database program.
They also
offer hints of projects to develop
and build and this way creates a portfolio. Firstly, it shows
a project already done for the developer to base.
Lastly, it lists several user stories for the developer to fulfill. The projects require the knowledge
of the Front End/Back End frameworks to create a client-server interaction.
The platform allows me to know new technologies and patterns through interactive
ways,
to get in touch with
the community and
to build applications. I recommend the FreeCodeCamp to anyone that
wants to program or to start in web development.
