Really did not like it

I tried to stick with it, but the tutorials felt too simplistic and didn’t dive deep. Plus, I hit technical problems that made it impossible to continue.

Invalid Lesson Progress

I kept losing progress in the courses. That's really disheartening and makes me not want to come back. Honestly, I spent hours learning just to find everything reset.

Good Content but Lacks Guidance

The resources available on freeCodeCamp are impressive. I appreciate the free curriculum and the projects are helpful. However, I've struggled with figuring out how to get help when I hit a roadblock. There’s a lot of info, but sometimes it feels overwhelming without proper direction.

Hard to Stay Motivated

I find the course videos hard to follow at times. More engaging content would help keep my interest. Right now, it's just too boring.

Struggling to stay motivated

I feel like I've hit a wall. Some parts click, but others are just so poorly explained. I want to keep learning but it's pretty discouraging.

Mixed feelings

It's great for beginners, but there are a lot of typos and errors in the code examples. That made it hard to trust the material completely.

Frustrating experience

I was really hoping to learn coding through freeCodeCamp, but I found the explanations to be confusing. The layout is a bit overwhelming, and I had trouble finding help when I got stuck. Not impressed.

Learning but Struggling

I’m making progress, but sometimes I hit these roadblocks where there’s no one to ask for help. I mean, the curriculum covers a lot, but a little guidance wouldn’t hurt. Really hoping they improve the support system.

Mixed feelings on the platform

freeCodeCamp has some good resources, but there's definitely room for improvement. The curriculum starts strong with HTML and CSS, but I found the JavaScript section a bit confusing, especially the way some concepts were explained. I appreciate the emphasis on building projects, which is very helpful, but the forums and community support can be hit or miss. Sometimes, responses take a long time, and I ended up searching for answers elsewhere.

Mixed Feelings Overall

I think freeCodeCamp has a lot of potential, but I found some of the coding challenges confusing. Also, the community forums could use a bit more moderation. Not terrible, but not great either.

Not what I expected

Honestly, I was looking for a more structured course. The content is sometimes confusing and I felt lost at times. Could be better, that's for sure.

Could use a lot of improvements

I see some potential in freeCodeCamp, but there are too many bugs and the interface is clunky. Not a great user experience, to be honest.

Kinda Confusing

I think the coding bootcamp is decent, but the ambiguity in some topics throws me off. Still pushing through.

Very disappointing experience

I thought freeCodeCamp would be my go-to for learning coding, but the community support is lacking. Some threads go unanswered for days. Just unhappy with it.

Could be better

I like the idea behind freeCodeCamp, but the pace can be frustrating. Sometimes the material doesn't connect well. I think it needs a bit of a refresh to keep users engaged.

Frustrating but decent for beginners

The platform is helpful in parts, but I ran into issues that made it hard to learn effectively. Not the best but not the worst either.

Lacking User Support

Support is almost non-existent when I got stuck.
