Their regular programming bootcamps welcome n00bs of all ages (over 18) && backgrounds - graduates or not - as long as they are willing to fully and passionately commit to becoming professional - and happily employed - junior full-stack software developers within a very short period of time. Students are guided throughout the course by a team of instructors who have themselves formerly been pupils at the bootcamp. Their teaching methods are peculiar && their passion for clean code is only surpassed by their love for amazingly talented people that society has disregarded.
To apply to their regular courses, prospective students must complete an online computer science 101 course, submit an online form, go through an online JavaScript tutorial, excel in a JavaScript code challenge, and attend a workshop day that will be similar to the student experience during the bootcamp.
In each one of their campuses, different financing/sponsorship solutions are offered to help talented candidates that cannot advance the bootcamp's fee. Its specific terms and conditions are listed on their site's FAQs.

"My take on this 14 week journey"
It was an overall very frustrating experience. I feel like more projects should have been done. It is an expensive course that provides good physical structure, good staff but still lacks when it comes down to what is the best to provide for future junior... Read More

"Bootcamp Fullstack"
I recently completed a full-stack bootcamp, and the experience has been transformative. Right from the beginning, the curriculum was intense, covering a wide range of topics including Java, JavaScript, SQL, Spring Framework. The pace was fast, and there... Read More
The instructors were knowledgeable and approachable, always ready to assist when concepts seemed too complex to grasp. Their real-world experience added immense value, providing insights that went beyond textbook knowledge. Moreover, the peer community was incredibly supportive. Collaborating on projects with fellow students, sharing struggles, and celebrating small victories together created a sense of camaraderie that kept me motivated.
One of the highlights was the capstone project, where we had to build a full-stack application from scratch. This project was a culmination of all we had learned and tested our ability to integrate various technologies seamlessly. Despite the challenges, seeing my project come to life was immensely rewarding and a testament to how much I had grown.
The bootcamp also included career services, offering guidance on resume building, interview preparation, and job search strategies. This support was invaluable as I transitioned from learning to seeking employment.
In conclusion, while the bootcamp was challenging and at times exhausting, it was an incredibly enriching experience. I now feel equipped with a robust skill set and the confidence to tackle real-world projects. The journey was tough, but the growth and learning were absolutely worth it.

"My experience"
The best pro aobut this bootcamp is that they teach how to code, for real and like a pro. To understand the steps and the thinking, how to program. Not the languege itself but behaind the scenes. That is really the best, for me at least.
The cons was... Read More

"Worst experience"
I did the bootcamp (it doesn't matter if it's in Porto or Lisbon) but the end result: learn and get a job - that's the point when you spend so much money. The training itself was what was expected for a bootcamp, a lot of material in a short time. Okay,... Read More
