    Appalling experience at HyperionDev

    My overall experience with HyperionDev's fullstack web development bootcamp was deeply disappointing. The absence of adequate student support, coupled with lecture notes that lacked depth and originality, created significant obstacles in my educational journey. I strongly advise potential students to explore other reputable alternatives that offer a more comprehensive and supportive learning environment.

    Additionally, it is worth noting that HyperionDev's refund policy is somethin...

    Excellent all around

    I have enjoyed my time with HyperionDev. The structure for the course is well planned and laid out. It is a well recommended course for any first timer like myself. Not only is the presentation of the work well, they provide great support on different platforms which makes getting assistance quick and easy! Quick turn around with any questions or queries and always someone willing to help. I would suggest HyperionDev Software  Engineer Bootcamp to anyone!

    WORST BOOTCAMP IN THE WORLD!!!

    So many reviews on here from ‘students currently studying’ on the course.

    Who writes a review at the beginning or the middle of a course?😂 When we go to a restaurant do we leave a review whilst eating the food? No we wait once finished so we can examine ‘critically’ whether it was good or not. Too many fake reviews here misleading people.

    I finished the data science bootcamp and can confirm it is utter trash. So many students have spoken out against Hyperiondev because of t...

    Detailed Course Content

    I am nearing the end of my Immersive Full Stack and Software Engineering bootcamp with HyperionDev, and the experience has been spectacular! With this bootcamp, I have learnt so much more about front-end and back-end web development and software engineering than what I would have learnt on my own. The course is structured very well and progressively gets more complex, as every new task builds on the concepts from previous tasks and you begin to see how everything fits together. The mento...

    I have learnt so much since the beginning of of this course and my learning with Hyperion Dev. I am so grateful for the consistency and the guidance I've received through the duration of the course. I have to also express my gratitude to Warrick Sabatta for being attentive and very helpful when I have been stuck in a tough spot.

    AVOID at all costs. It’s a trap

    Do not fall for the fake reviews about Hyperion dev. Do proper research before signing up to this terrible bootcamp. You will waste a lot of money like I did, which I am deeply regretting now. If you want to see real reviews then just search them on reddit and you will really get the gist of it.

    Worst bootcamp in the world

    The course and company are woeful. Poor and outright incorrect information and learning materials, toxic culture, and misadvertised in multiple ways. Please take my words on board and avoid this course. Your time will be much better spent elsewhere and you will not learn anything you cannot learn in a more accessible/engaging way on YouTube.

    The real course content you will be taught on the software engineer bootcamp is woefully inadequate to set you up for a job - it doesn't even cover some extremely basic skills that you'll need e.g. APIs. I am begging you just to take these reviews seriously. I think HD themselves are leaving fake 5 star reviews here because all the students are fuming about this.
