Codecademy

Codecademy

One of the first platforms to use the simulator for learning. Students can learn a single programming language or an entire area, such as web development. Among programming languages, there are courses in HTML & CSS, Python, JavaScript, Java, SQL, Bash/Shell, Ruby, C++.

Codecademy has a professional rate. On it, students are promised tests, projects, portfolio filling and support. But in fact it is the same simulator, only it helps to complete a specific task. For example, a student in the simulator typeset a page based on a layout.

Feedback: assessment based on the principle of “well done”.

Certificate: not available (but possible in case of a paid intensive).

Who is suitable: for those who want to understand whether a new profession is worth an in-depth study. Someone who deals with developers and wants to understand them better. Anyone who wants to use advanced analytical tools in their work.

The simulator is not grounded in real work tasks. Students do not study developer tools and do not write code according to the ToR. You will most likely fail to become a full-fledged programmer after these courses.

Cost: about $20 per month. There are free courses.
