Hi😊 I am Olwethu, a student from South Africa. I have always been fascinated by coding, and it has been a goal of mine to learn how to code. I am really grateful to SheCodes for creating such an opportunity for women to learn to code, a goal that I thought would be unattainable has become attainable. I have thoroughly enjoyed every lesson and task that we have done, I am always showing my loved ones my projects and the new skills that have learnt. Furthermore, coding has become my escape, whenever I am stressed by my academics and other things happening around me coding has helped in relieving my stress and anxiety. I hope that all the skills and knowledge I am gaining from SheCodes will help me gain opportunities in the tech industry.
I really enjoyed this extra project! I learned a lot and I've found it very well explained.
Thanks for this project! Learned a lot and really happy with the outcome.
I'm really happy to learn React and apply it in my previous weather app, making the project more complete. It also helped me to understand the code and communicate fluently with my colleagues.
This workshop showed me that I am capable of doing bigger projects and has given me a lot more confidence in my coding abilities!
What a fun three weeks it has been. I learned a lot about responsive web pages. I managed to create my own personal website. I cannot wait to use the skills I learned to create more projects
Another fun project with great instructions and support from the team. I keep learning every time I take one of SheCodes courses.
I really enjoyed taking this workshop! All of the lessons were packed with meaningful information without being overwhelming. The challenges, the homework assignments, and the final project were so much fun! I was completely engaged from beginning to end. I can't wait to continue my SheCodes journey and see how my front-end development skills improve.
Enrolling in the SheCodes Basic course was an incredible experience. The course provided a structured and comprehensive introduction to coding that made learning enjoyable and rewarding. The hands-on coding exercises and projects helped me gain confidence in my abilities, and the interactive platform made it easy to understand even complex concepts. The instructors and support team were always there to assist whenever I had questions, making the learning journey smooth and engaging. SheCodes Basic not only gave me a solid foundation in coding but also ignited my passion for technology. I highly recommend this course to anyone looking to start their coding journey
The basics add-on allowed me to practice the skills I've already learnt as well as learning some new techniques with a fun project! I'm much more confident with coding 🤓
I really enjoyed this course. A great intro to HTML, CSS and Javascript - Matt's lessons were easy to follow and the final project was the ideal way to bring everything I'd learned together.
I am loving the journey so far! Wonderful teacher, videos, challenges, projects, and help!
An exceptional opportunity to advance your React skills through hands-on experience. This course offers an engaging project that not only reinforces your knowledge but also delves into the integration of various APIs with React, providing insights into their utilization. Building this project was a truly gratifying experience, fostering a profound understanding of both React and API implementation.
SheCodes workshop exceeded my expectations in every way. Matt is a wonderful teacher and I'm also thankful to the SheCodes team for their dedication and patience. I appreciate how the workshop combined theory with hands-on projects, making complex concepts feel approachable. I highly recommend this workshop!
I had a great experience with the React course! The course content was presented in a clear and structured manner, making even the most challenging concepts easy to grasp. I really appreciate the hands-on approach of the course. It allowed me to apply what I learned immediately through the real-world app project.
SheCodes Basic Course is a great course. The way concepts were explained made coding easy to grasp, with interesting hands-on projects to help summarise learnings. Being able to do it at my own pace was really useful.
SheCodes basics has been great! Every video is really easy to understand as the concepts are explained well by Matt. I've learned loads over the past 3 weeks and am really proud of my final project.
thanks for the add on – another great project to add to the portfolio 💜
I had lots of fun learning SheCodes Responsive. It was challenging at times but Matt made things easier to understand. I kept my portfolio project simple, looking forward to updating my site with SheCodes React
I really enjoyed learning about React for this course. Having completed most of the workshops, I feel like I can really go far with Matt's knowledge and advice on coding. I don't think I would've been able to get this far in my coding journey otherwise and it was a pleasure to work on different projects under Matt's mentorship!
This add-on workshop taught me new skills to apply to real world projects. As in the previous workshops, the combination of theory and practical exercises is great as it allows me to immediately apply what I just learned.
I'm feeling happy that I've had an opportunity to learn a reality useful development tool - react. Looking forward to create more projects!
Extremely delighted to have had the opportunity to attend the SheCodes workshops. The combination of video lectures, challenges and homework followed by a real-life project was excellent. Thank you Matt Delac for teaching in such a proficient way!
Great add on. I enjoyed building this project
I recently completed the SheCodes Basics Workshop. The curriculum was well-structured and the hands-on projects really helped solidify my understanding.
This was a well-explained course and I learned a lot from APIs, which are essential in projects.
Such a great project!
The Coding Workshop was an absolute game-changer. With clear instruction and hands-on projects, I easily grasped complex coding concepts. The supportive community and expert instructors made learning a joy. This workshop fueled my passion for coding, and I'm excited to continue my journey. Highly recommended!
The most challenging course so far! I really wanted to learn react, it was undoubtedly the hardest course so far but also the most rewarding! I was a little sorry that the final project was again a weather app, but I understand since it touches on almost all the important points. Very happy to be on this journey and to keep learning! I'm excited to learn more tips and tricks for the next React workshop.
I loved this workshop. What a cool challenge to tie all of the projects I have been working on together while also designing and coding an entire interactive website from scratch. All of the elements coming together. I feel like I am just scratching the surface!
I recently completed my first project at SheCodes, and I must say it was an incredible experience. SheCodes offers a fantastic platform for women interested in coding to learn and grow their skills. The course structure is well-organized. I appreciated how the curriculum was designed to gradually build up coding skills, starting from the basics and progressing to more complex concepts. The combination of video tutorials, practical exercises, and real-life projects made the learning process engaging and effective.

This was a great course to learn the basics. It was easy to follow and the projects were fun!
Good final project, great practice with React.
My name is Sthandiwe Msweli from South Africa and my coding journey so far has been amazing. So before I started coding I graduated in Business and information Manangement and I was not happy with what I've studyed but because I wanted to have a qulification and get a job so I can earn a living so i went on with it. Fast cracking my story after I graduated had no luck in finding a job so after a year, on my second year of staying at home without any luck of getting a job, I did a free trail in coding on some bootcamp and I fall inlove with it but to enroll to that bootcamp you needed funding which I did'nt have. So I did my reserch and I ended up founding SheCodes Foundation that when I start my coding journey and it has been a wonderful journey and I thank the Lord for this opportunity still on it and excicted for more learning and more adventure in coding 💜 plus I have completed my shecodes plus and responsive it was challenging but yet amazing experience the fact that I now have my first project that operates with real life data it amazes me I’m learning a lot can not wait for my next lessons and project ❤️”
Loved working on this Add-On project! Thanks Matt for the step-by-step build 😊
SheCodes Pro has been a game-changer for me. The program's lessons, instructors, and projects helped me learn coding in a way that was fun and understandable. I'm now more confident in my coding skills and feel ready to take on new challenges in tech. If you're looking to learn coding, SheCodes Pro is a fantastic choice!
This has given me such a good stepping ground on my continued path in coding. I thoroughly appreciate the deadlines and the fact that we have projects. Was also fun to learn the "shortcut" to emojis 😆
It's been 3 weeks of intense learning and project execution. I've grasped the foundation and have successfully applied HTML, CSS and JavaScript in building a project in this coding workshop.
SheCodes Plus Add-On was another great workshop by Matt! I really enjoyed diving deeper into javascript and enjoyed building a new and exciting project in such a short period of time.
This project is a great guide for anyone wanting help to finalize a portfolio page. If you already have knowledge of building websites, Matt is also giving you tools how to climb the Google ranks.
Absolutely love Matt's step-by-step approach! Lots of aha moments while I worked on my Plus project, and the SheCodes team were just a Slack message away whenever I got stuck. On to the next workshop!
Learning to code is so much fun! It can be challenging, but it is very rewarding and the result is a project you can be proud of. Thanks SheCodes!
I have really enjoyed this course! Matt is a great instructor. It is something I really look forward to in my day as a stay-at-home mom of two toddlers. The challenges, weekly homework and final project were just the fuel I needed to rewire and re-ignite a dusty mind. I would highly recommend SheCodes to any woman looking to get into front-end development and I am thankful for the opportunity afforded to me by the SheCodes Foundation.
I had lot's of fun completing weekly challenges and the project. The biggest advantage of this course is that you can postpone a submission date and study with your pace.
SheCodes Plus was super challenging for me, but so rewarding. Juggling my final semester of university and the workshop was overwhelming but i am so glad i finished it! I have learned so much from this workshop and working on the final project was super fun, even when i got stuck and found it difficult, i was able to work on my debugging skills and pay extra attention to details. All in all, amazing workshop. On to the next one!
Absolutely enjoying learning more and more of coding, I took a small break due to other things but couldn't wait to get back on and finish my project. Time to start the next and last stage of Shecodes coding lessons.
Very interesting course, react is definately a step up from what we've been learning so far. However, once you start to break everything down into components it all starts to make sense. Will definately be practicing some beginner projects on my own too.
This project was much interesting. I want to try to do something new, to do something of my own.Personally, I did not have enough people next to whom I could discuss the steps of the project. But in general, I am very satisfied and really began to understand much more. A big thank you to the whole team SheCodes!!!
Basics Add On workshop was nice addition to expand knowledge from the previous course. I had fun making the project, thank you!
I'm starting to feel so much more confident in my coding abilities. I love that I was just able to create a multi-page website showcasing my projects.
This course is really awesome. It give me all the basic knowledges of react that I need to write a project.
Had fun learning and building plus project, each concept explained clearly with interactive, practical lessons.
This was a fun project. The course was excellent and complete. I'm enjoying SheCodes very much!
This was a fun project. The tutorial videos are very clear. I'm enjoying SheCodes very much!
I enjoyed building the World Clock website in this project. I found the instruction easy to follow and I can feel my Javascript skills improving compared to when I completed the Weather App project. I am excited to move onto the next workshop!
Working on the dictionary app project, I quickly realized how challenging yet exciting coding can be. There were moments when things got tricky, but with every line of code, I saw my vision coming to life. I am very proud, this dictionary app is close to what I had imagined. Completing it has given me a sense of achievement. I'm genuinely grateful to SheCodes for giving me the tools and the chance to bring my ideas to life. A big thank you to the team
This workshop certainly took my very young coding skills to the limit! I adored seeing my project take shape, but it certainly made me step back a few times and think about how to solve the problem. The colloboration and resources which are available definitely saved my bacon on this one! But I'm really proud of my weather app and I shall use it every day :)
I like the way that we’re going through a real project step by step. Matt makes coding understandable and enjoyable at the same time.
as always, Matt's tutorial and explanations are awesome and it makes you so eager to start your project. Having more and more fun each time and looking forward to the next workshop !
I stumbled upon SheCodes while searching for an online coding program, that includes lots of exercises and I think I chose a great platform. One of the standout aspects of SheCodes is its emphasis on hands-on experience. Every lesson provides a coding exercise which allows you to practice what you've learned and solidify your knowledge. Additionally, the weekly homework assignments and the final project offer opportunities to apply multiple coding principles in a fun and interactive way. Whether you're a complete beginner or someone with prior coding experience looking to upskill like me, I highly recommend exploring SheCodes. You won't be disappointed!"
Happy to finish another project, which made me feel more and more confident about coding 👩🏻💻👩🏻💻👩🏻💻
SheCodes plus contains much more information and each lesson has been delicately chosen. The greatest tutor with wonderful teaching skills makes coding easy and simplifies every subject. The final project is full of challenges and milestones. Can't wait to begin the next course and continue my learning journey
Quite an interesting test project, the details of implementation and interaction with the API are perfectly explained, thanks for the opportunity to gain new knowledge and practice!
Absolutely thrilled to share my experience with SheCodes! I recently completed their Responsive workshop, and I can't express how transformative the journey has been for me. The workshop was an absolute delight from start to finish. The curriculum was structured in a way that made complex concepts accessible. The hands-on approach to learning, coupled with real-world examples and interactive projects, ensured that I not only grasped the fundamentals but also gained the confidence to apply them independently.
Another great SheCodes workshop! I'm happy to confirm that the Adds-on workshops are really useful: we reinforce what we learned and we discover new things. They are also a great practice and the growing portfolio surely welcomes the extra projects. Looking forward to SheCodes React!
I really enjoyed the Responsive project! The workshop was just as good as all others and I really enjoy Matt's teaching style. I would definitely recommend any of the workshops to friends/colleagues who are interested in learning how to code.
I've learnt a lot from this project, thank you very much
I'm so excited to have finished the SheCodes Plus workshop! I can't believe how much I've learned. I'm so proud of myself for sticking with it, even when things got tough. I learned HTML, CSS, and JavaScript, and I'm now confident that I can create my own websites and web applications. JavaScript was definitely the most challenging for me, but I was able to overcome it with the help of the SheCodes resources, especially Athena AI. My final project was a weather application that fetches live data from a weather API. It was a challenging project, but it was also so much fun! I learned so much about weather data and how to display it in a user-friendly way. I would highly recommend the SheCodes workshop to anyone who is interested in learning how to code. It's an amazing opportunity to learn from experienced instructors and to build a community of supportive women.
As a complete beginner, I found the SheCodes introduction course easy to understand. The final project was really fun to do!
It has been a challenging journey - one I would have never anticipated. I have learned a lot and I feel my skillset and understanding is growing. I am excited to see the progress continue. I am now so eager to do more with my current applications and look forward to building amazing projects in future.
I thoroughly enjoyed the SheCodes Basics course. Initially, I was nervous I would not be able to grasp much of the content, considering I have no experience in coding. However, I surprised myself with how much I was actually able to understand and be able to implement that into the final project. As well as being very informative, it was FUN!
I hade a long break over summer and came back this week and finished the final project, and I immediately got reminded how good the videos are and how fun it is to write code and get to see directly what you are creating.
I'm thrilled to have completed the SheCodes.io plus add-on certification. This course was an incredibly enriching experience, adding valuable skills to my repertoire. The comprehensive content and expert guidance made the learning process both engaging and rewarding. I'm grateful for the opportunity to enhance my coding abilities through SheCodes.io, and I'm excited to apply what I've learned to future projects. Thank you for a fantastic learning journey!
Building my personal portfolio was both challenging and exciting. Being able to showcase the projects built in the previous workshops makes you feel that you are closer to becoming a front-end developer. As always, the explanations were great and the challenges help you to grasp the concepts or overcome doubts.
Nice project 👌 made a lot of fun.
Enjoyed this add on, like learning the new techniques and.being able to add them to my project
I want to share how SheCodes Foundation has transformed my tech journey. As a beginner, their accessible courses provided a strong coding foundation. With expert mentors and interactive projects, I gained real skills and confidence. What stood out were the networking opportunities and soft skills workshops. They go beyond coding, preparing us for the tech world. Through SheCodes, I not only learned to code but also grew as a professional.
💜 thank you for another great learning experience these past few weeks. Ready for the add-on project and the next chapter! 💪🏻
The workshop was easy to follow and convenient as you're able to do it at your own pace. The final project was very fun to do. Highly recommend if you're thinking about getting in coding or just interested to learn more about HTML, CSS and Javascript.
The SheCodes Basics Add-On Workshop wan an awesome experience from start to finish! Matt's clear explanations made learning easy, and his enthusiasm for coding made it so much fun. I really love how my project ended up looking. Although it was supposed to be a page about my hobby, I decided to do it about Eminem because I'm a Stan :P I'm looking forward to completing the next Add-On now!
Coding has been fun, I won't lie. I had no knowledge of any of the coding languages that I have learned in my first week. The instructor is very good at explaining and it became easy for me to understand the task or project at hand. I can't wait be a tech girl!☺️
Such a nice approach to learning how to code. The curriculum consistently keeps building up to one big useful projects that constantly and seamlessly combines all the skills and tools that you need to succeed. It was so much fun building my own weather app that I could proudly send to all my friends and colleagues!
The workshop is organized in a way that allows us to build upon and apply what we have learned into our project. I appreciate that the instructor demonstrates how to troubleshoot when the app or website does not display as expected. It was an enjoyable experience!
Enrolling in SheCodes was an incredible decision that completely transformed my journey into the world of coding. The curriculum is brilliantly designed, breaking down complex concepts into manageable steps. With the guidance of their passionate and skilled instructors, I not only learned how to code but gained the confidence to tackle real-world projects. The supportive community and interactive learning environment made the experience enjoyable and engaging. SheCodes provided me with a solid foundation, opening doors to new opportunities in the tech industry. I can't recommend SheCodes enough to anyone eager to learn coding in a dynamic and empowering way.
The projects are a fun opportunity to action what you have learned throughout the workshop!
This was another rewarding opportunity to put what I learned in SheCodes Responsive to good use. I'm so happy with how my project turned out.
Had so much fun seeing this project unfold. Can't wait to learn more in react!
The dictionary project is a fun project overall. However, I found a notable issue with the integration of the Pexels API for image display. It seems this part of the workshop is significantly outdated, going by the oldest Slack messages, which date back about two months (as far as I could find). Despite API changes and a different authorization process, the lesson continues to rely on the outdated method. Surprisingly, the project's GitHub repository hasn't seen any updates for an entire year. Mind you, the lesson in question is only 30 minutes long. Inquiries on Slack about these concerns received a canned response stating that the Pexels API underwent recent changes. This led to the existing setup being dysfunctional, without an updated lesson. Instead, a new Images API was suggested as a replacement when asking for help in the Slack messenger. I believe a notice within the lesson itself about the changed API integration would be appropriate. Other lessons have included such notices before, so it's puzzling why it's missing here. This could save others from unnecessary frustration when grappling with a broken method. To those taking on this project, be prepared for potential roadblocks due to this outdated API setup. It's disappointing that such a significant flaw hasn't been addressed more proactively.
I'm overflowing with gratitude as I reflect on my coding workshop journey, having just completed my weather app project. 🌦️🙌 I started this journey with zero coding knowledge, and today, I stand amazed at what I've accomplished, all thanks to SheCodes.
I really enjoyed getting to grips with how to pull data from websites. I've always wondered and now I know. It has inspired me with future projects
This project was a fun passion project about my favorite rapper and vocalist Smino. Check out the page and you will see the influence his art and Matt Delac's impressive teaching have on the project. Another great coding workshop in the books. thank you!!!
Really good project to practice html and css
This add-on was a great way to learn some more base skills I feel a professional coder would know, but I would not have known so it makes me more confident in my abilities. The project was also a lot of fun to put together, and it is nice to see the things learned applied into a great looking project for my portfolio.
SheCodes Responsive was fun and educating, ready for the add-on project and more.
SheCodes Basics Add-on allowed me to follow an expert in the creation of a project and gave me more confidence in the development of my own.
I just completed a basic HTML, CSS, and JavaScript bootcamp and it was fantastic. The projects were practical, and the hands-on practice was invaluable. I now have a solid understanding of web development fundamentals and feel confident in creating a simple web projects. Highly recommended for anyone starting their web development journey!
