"Incredibly challenging but ultimately rewarding"

App Academy is the most rigorous program I have ever completed, but it was absolutely worth it. Starting with no coding experience, I was able to develop three full-stack projects by the end of the course. The program equips you with all the support you... Read More

I loved the structured curriculum, as it suited my learning style perfectly. However, be prepared for a very fast-paced environment that requires your full dedication. If you want to break into tech, learn how to code from scratch, and are willing to commit all your time to become a developer, I would definitely recommend App Academy.

At the end of the day, success ultimately depends on your commitment and effort to secure your first job in the field, which is tough in this market. However, after completing the bootcamp, you will have the confidence to keep pushing forward.
