The react course teaches you nothing at all there is no deep understanding of the core components I could not tell you anything or write a real world react app and I was one of the better students. There is no community at all. I thought this would help me connect and learn things I need but I do not see that at all. I see money spent. They need to focus on JavaScript and the advanced JavaScript. I work in tech as a Software Support and work with devs to fix a complex Saas Software. I do not see the focus to make you a real world dev at all.
They do a horrible job with your developer set up and the instructions are out of date. The bootstrap course is on 4 and they are on 5.2. I learned more React form React-The Complete Guide on udemy by Academind by Maximilian Schwarzmüller then i did in the course. The instructors are GOOD people VERY GOOD PEOPLE. This is not about the instructors this is about the courses and how bad they are and how the curriculum sucks.

Robert, we're really sorry that you feel that way about the bootcamp. We'd like to address some of the issues you have identified. The Bootstrap version we teach is 4.5. We have purposefully decided to not teach Bootstrap 5 because it is almost identical to Bootstrap 4.5 but removes JQuery. We believe students should learn about JQuery since it is still used by millions of websites and companies, even though it is an old library. It's also the precursor to all modern JavaScript frameworks and helps understand them better.
We have also recently upgraded the React and React Native courses to the latest versions. I understand that you got frustrated by the challenges created by React Native EXPO, and the difficulties associated with running mobile device emulation and debugging on it. The community and the instructors helped you resolve those issues, which was really great to see.
Finally, we really appreciate the call-out to our very talented and supportive instructor community.
We wish you the best in finishing the bootcamp, and hope to see you get a job as a developer like many of our alumni have already done.- Edward JonesStudentAug 17, 2022Overall ExperienceInstructorsCurriculumJob AssistanceN/A
Back End Development
Nucamp has been extremely resourceful and all of the instructors that I have encountered have been immensely knowledgeable and dedicated to assisting all students. You will have to put in a lot of your own time learning and teaching yourself but do not be afraid to reach out to peers on slack! I learned my lesson after being a little too shy and embarrassed when not being able to complete some portions and got stuck behind the first time around, but the community is always there to help ...Nucamp has been extremely resourceful and all of the instructors that I have encountered have been immensely knowledgeable and dedicated to assisting all students.

Full Stack Development bootcamp
I enrolled in Nucamp because it had the program I was looking for (Full Stack developer bootcamp), it was part-time and reasonably priced. Now that I am in the program, I appreciate the small class size, highly knowledgable instructors who teach live each week, and the course materials. I highly recommend the bootcamp. - WilliamAug 06, 2022Overall ExperienceInstructorsCurriculumJob AssistanceN/A

Good value
I chose Nucamp because the price was way lower and the courses were shorter than any other bootcamp I could find that offers similar curricula AND because the reviews were pretty good. The only sort of negatives I could find in the reviews were that Nucamp is not the place for you if you aren't very driven, disciplined, or good at supplementing your education outside of class. I agree with this assessment.

I agree with this assessment.
A negative I have found is that it appears Nucamp may be an instructor factory in that many of their instructors were hired after completing Nucamp courses with no other experience in coding. This makes me question the integrity of the program, but my instructors at least have had legitimate experience in the field and have been very competent. - NemoJul 19, 2022Overall ExperienceInstructorsCurriculumJob AssistanceN/A
Web Developer Bootcamp
I would recommend anyone starting out on their developer journey to take this course. By the time you are done with this intro course, you have an understanding of what it entails to become a developer. - AmandaJul 14, 2022Overall ExperienceInstructorsCurriculumJob AssistanceN/A
