Learn to code with these online code teaching platforms

---

These teaching platforms are all completely free to use and in some cases offer certification. Some are in the style of heavy literature-based teaching and some are more interactive. Take a look at the following resources to see what fits your style of learning.

1. freeCodeCamp

The hint is in the name with freeCodeCamp, this website is dedicated to providing free, highly resourceful content to budding up-and-coming developers. It has a vast range of topics covered both on the web-development and programming side of the coding stack. It’s probably the single-most valuable free content any learner could get their hands on.

The camp offers progressive tutorial-style courses on topics such as responsive web design, Javascript algorithms and data structures, APIs and microservices, and more. Each of these topics has hundreds of educational content and each comes with a freeCodeCamp certification to acknowledge completion. You can find all of these courses here.

I asked the developer community of Twitter for their experiences with freeCodeCamp and it’s all extremely positive.

Quotes from the Twitter developer community

‘ I’ve been using freeCodeCamp since I’ve finished my boot camp. I’m right now learning algorithms before I did the array section and it was so easy to understand, I found all the material to be useful. ‘

– @BlakieCodes

‘ freeCodeCamp is pretty good actually, the HTML CSS sections are great, even the Bootstrap parts was good and very easy to follow. ‘

2. The Odin Project

The Odin Project again is somewhat similar to freeCodeCamp in that it has a range of topical courses that you can follow through at your own pace.

One of their beliefs are

You learn best by actually building

This, in my opinion too, is one of the truest statements you could make, there simply isn’t a better way to consolidate coding knowledge into your brain that hands-on-experience.

The Odin Project currently offers tracked-style courses on the following topics –

• Full Stack Ruby-on-Rails

‘I’ve been unemployed for a while and made the decision to change careers. I was thinking of Web Development but I knew that I would need to work on my development skills. After doing some research, I found Traversy Media. I subscribed to Brad’s YouTube channel right away and after watching his videos for a few weeks, made the decision to purchase a few of his courses. Best decision I could have made. The way he teaches gave me the confidence I needed to get started on my newly chosen career path.‘
– @chadmccullough

‘He’s really thorough and covers all parts of the subject. Has videos on all sorts of different topics too. I really recommend his videos. I’m actively trying to learn Full Stack dev and brads videos have helped massively‘
– @tomavgeek

‘What I like about Brad is he goes into a lot of depth with the topics he teaches, he gives you the theory behind them too. Now whenever I need to know something, I always search to see if Brad has covered it first before looking for any other resources.‘

– @jrdev_

‘His videos are really comprehensive. A problem I faced as a newbie was finding videos that didn’t over complicate topics with code jargon that I had never faced before, but Brad’s method of explaining is super beginner friendly.

Brad’s videos took my understanding to a level where I could tackle huge courses and be able to understand the general idea behind a larger more confusing topic. It’s very informative, so much so that before I learn something new, I watch a crash course by Brad Traversy before jumping to the nitty-gritty.‘
