Udemy

20 recommenders · 20 threads · recommended in 6 years, 2016–2022 · score 23.8

Search for it ↗

A large Udemy bootcamp by Colt Steele covering full-stack web development, including HTML, CSS, JavaScript, jQuery, Bootstrap, Node and databases. Commenters note parts of it, such as the back end and jQuery and Bootstrap material, are dated.

Commenters call Colt's teaching simple and straightforward, good for beginners, and a clear track through the full stack, though some warn the material is partly outdated.

    I am doing these two exact programs and I say do both! I would not have been able to self-study without 100devs because of the structure and expectation of doing 2 classes per week in a designated time frame (trust me I tried and wasted like 6 months lol). The Udemy courses are amazing in terms of…

    Here’s my (personal, subjective) rank: 1. Colt Steele 2. Andrei Neagoie 3. Maximilian Schwarzmüller and Angela Yu And now I’ll try to explain why. I enjoyed courses from all four authors. All the courses OP mentioned are pretty long and difficult for newcomers. And that’s why the main measure for…

    Colt Steele's course is really good. I have used it and he concentrates very well on the basics.

  4. Strongly recommendsSebster27r/learnprogramming2020in “Beginner Web Dev course - which one to choose”▲ 1

    I was just in your position a few months ago. My choice, is neither. Angela Yu has some great courses, but if your interested in IOS app development. My recommendation is to follow Colt Steele on YouTube. He’s doing a free web dev video everyday if you want a udemy course, do the COLT STEELE boot…

  5. Recommendsbeheadedcharmanderr/webdev2022in “thoughts on Angela Yu's 2022 web dev bootcamp?”

    the back end part is extremely outdated and a bit of a mess. the first half of it is great though and if you dont have any coding background its pretty good to start off shes teaches the concepts in ways that are easy to understand. id recommend other resources for backend though. the odin…

  6. Recommendsajm1212r/learnprogramming2022in “c0d3.com vs odin project”

    Don't be scared at all, learn slow and be curious. Don't cram either. Udemy has full courses on full stack development for like 15 dollars. Brad Traversey, and Colt Steele are great teachers. If you want a free course then Odin project is the best, but go on youtube and their are some free courses…

  7. Recommendssbmsrr/learnprogramming2022in “Which course should I choose?”▲ 2

    In that case, i would start with what is easiest/fastest, which is likely a video course. I can't speak to the two that you've described, but Colt's seems insanely popular on here, and on the Udemy reviews. Start there, and best of luck!

  8. RecommendsAlgrinderr/webdev2022in “Which one is better?”▲ 1

    I bought Steels course in 2018 and all I can say is that colt is a passionate instructor who knows how to deliver knowledge simply and straightforwardly to all students no matter where their level stands. I'd recommend it since it's comprehensive and covers the needed technologies that make a…

  9. RecommendsHardh_guyr/EntrepreneurRideAlong2022in “My 1 man business is growing and I am really glad I started it”▲ 2

    If you want to learn web developement you can visit jsmastery on YouTube or Angela yu on udemy and if you want Android development check out Angela yu course on udemy.

  10. RecommendsOwn-Pattern5181r/webdev2022in “Frontend masters vs Freecodecamp?”▲ 7

    I honestly recommend Maximilian full react course on Udemy, you can get it on discount for 13$ and it covers everything react

  11. RecommendsRenagade_Blader/learnprogramming2022in “The Odin Project or Harvard's CS50 course”▲ 4

    I did TOP and free code camp and then I bought colt steele’s course on Udemy when it was on sale because I am also a visual learner, I also subscribe to free code camp and traversey media on YouTube. Also if you are interested in freelancing then I recommend buying traversey media’s freelance…

    On Udemy check out the courses by Colt Steele that cover HTML, CSS and JS. There is a super popular one that bundles all 3 of the above together. Then for React, NodeJS, Redux, MongoDB etc. check out all the courses by Stephen Grider - probably some of the best courses money can buy as he goes…

  13. RecommendsVENT-TO-MEr/learnprogramming2020in “Thinking of a new way to learn JavaScript”▲ 2

    I suggest Colt Steele’s udemy course on javascript fundamentals. It’s usually like 12 bucks, but if you didn’t want a course with about 60 hours worth of videos for cheap, his YouTube channel has some beginner stuff. His style of teaching I find really good.

  14. RecommendsCaliBoundedr/learnprogramming2020in “Javascript Courses are like bad minecraft tutorials”▲ 3

    Brad Traversy is a fantasic instructor, but if you're very much a beginner, he may be a bit hard to grasp and pretty fast paced. He's amazing at helping you get started with a language or framework VERY quickly, but be can only do that if you have kind of a baseline knowledge on things. Take his…

  15. Recommendsrobloxfortnutr/learnprogramming2020in “I WANT TO BE A PROGRAMMER (HELP!!!)”▲ 2

    I’d recommend Web Development Bootcamp by Angela Yu on Udemy. It’s a great course to get you started with web dev. I recommended web dev because it gives you a visual representation of what you’re writing even in the first week of learning and it’ll probably keep you motivated.

  16. RecommendsLarthianr/marketing2019in “I’m a marketing student. I need advice”▲ 1

    Well, your Google certs are free, just take time. When I went to college they barely touched on the web dev stuff, which is very helpful understanding how a site works, check for speeds, mobility, how to manually make changes. Udemy courses by Colt Steele and Traversy Media are really good. Learn…

    I'm going to ramble a bit, I'm at work right now so I don't have time to structure my thoughts better than this... Before I did either of these courses, I worked through CS50x on Edx.org, and I think that was hugely beneficial. It really challenges you as a new developer, and I find myself looking…

    If your parents want you to drop your degree, then drop it. You can learn all this stuff on YouTube/Udemy Courses for free or nearly free at your pace without worrying about grades or whatever nonsense. Check out Harvard CS50 classes for free on YouTube. They have most of those courses and more…

  19. Recommendszh1K476tt9pqr/webdev2017in “CodeSchool is free 17-19 November”

    I worked through most of the web development stuff they have and it's really good but mainly beginner and some intermediate level stuff. Also I felt like the more advanced it got the lower the quality of the courses (even though still pretty good relative to other resources). Anyway, it really…

  20. Recommendssonnytronr/learnprogramming2016in “Android Apps for Learning Programming”▲ 1

    TeamTreehouse and Udemy both have apps in the app store. My personal recommendation is TeamTreehouse for mobile development, Android, iOS. Udemy has a great course for web development (web development bootcamp). Both can be accessed and the videos can be watched on their app.

  21. MentionsSorry-4everTechn00br/webdev2022in “I'm gonna buy one of these courses can someone recommend me one of them and why he recommend that. will appreciate anyone's help”

    I've done the majority of both Colt's and Angelas and both are really good. But! if I had to choose which one helped me get a better understanding then I would choose Angelas. Her course seemed to have more "HW" which in the end is needed to make sure you're getting the content being taught. But I…

  22. MentionsAnyoler/learnprogramming2022in “I became a dev after learning from Udemy as my main resource. I outlined my structured path into a syllabus in case others want to follow my same learning path.”

    U/WherezThePasta do you know if Angela's or Colt's course is discounted at any time in the year? Would love to get one of those! So many great course on the link you shared. Thank you!!!

    Freecodecamp on Youtube is an insane gold mine of fantastic courses on every subject you can imagine. I found some great instructors just form their courses. Are you trying to get into web development? Corey Schafer has some great tutorials on Django which is the Python web framework. Other than…

  24. Mentionsufdekar/webdev2020in “Which udemy course should i learn HTML and CSS from?”▲ 1

    I would probably either finish Simo Edwin's course and then start Colt's course, or start with Colt's course and then later check Simo Edwin's course and watch the parts which werent in Colt's course i guess.

  25. Mentionsslmkhr/learnprogramming2020in “I am currently learning Web Development through a Udemy course, what should I do after?”▲ 1

    Im doing one of the Andreis Zero To Mastery. But if you complete the Colt’s course I recommend doing FreeCodeCamp afterwards to get a better understanding of the Objects and Algorithms. Then build a project.

  26. CriticizesThroawayPartyerr/webdev2022in “Angela Yu vs Colt Steele Web Dev Udemy course”

    I'm taking Angela's web dev course right now. It's a nice course, covering all the fundamental topics. Of course I'm not expecting it to teach me *everything*, but it helps to understand how all these topics fit together to form a full stack. However, if you read the low-rating reviews for this…
