Excellent bootcamp! Web fundamentals
I took the Web FundamentaIs course for 4 weeks. It was well worth the time and money spent ($320). I chose Nucamp, because it is affordable and it offers a flexible way to learn code by learning via videos and exercises at home as well as in person through a weekly workshop. Nucamp is an excellent bootcamp. The video lectures are clearly explained and presented. Also, having access to other Nucampers via Slack is a huge value. This way you can learn from others.

NuCamp - Great Intro Bootcamp
I chose Nucamp because of the location and the ease of payment. Not an expensive Bootcamp but it was very good for my learning and progression in coding!

Just finished the 1st month
I've just finished my bootstrap class online and it's the best I could have hoped for in an online program. The instructor was knowledgeable and very helpful.

HTML/CSS/JavaScript, Bellingham WA, Oct-Nov 2019
I found the flipped classroom with Slack/email support to be an efficient learning delivery format. David Rossiter's video lectures were easy to follow, and videos I could rewatch were an immense improvement over live lectures in community college. At-home exercises and classroom workshops were challenging, especially once we started on JavaScript. Instructors were knowledgeable, patient, and generally easy to follow. Both Daniel and Minae monitored Slack and responded promptly to my quest...
I found the flipped classroom with Slack/email support to be an efficient learning delivery format. David Rossiter's video lectures were easy to follow, and videos I could rewatch were an immense improvement over live lectures in community college. At-home exercises and classroom workshops were challenging, especially once we started on JavaScript. Instructors were knowledgeable, patient, and generally easy to follow. Both Daniel and Minae monitored Slack and responded promptly to my questions.
For the Saturday workshops, I think it would have been more productive to spend class time on problem analysis and debugging rather than coding. Group activities for analyzing existing code/function calls and diagramming program logic and writing pseudo code for the week's workshop would have prepared us for coding the workshop on our own on the weekend and asking questions/collaborating via Slack.
Also, in class we briefly touched on using debugger features in Visual Studio Code and the browsers, but I would have liked more information on how to use debuggers, which tools working programmers use for debugging, how to chase down common error messages, etc. This might be a great subject for a future David Rossiter video.
WRT workload, supposedly Nucamp requires 1-3 hours/day of study. That might be true during the first couple of weeks for HTML/CSS. However, for JavaScript in weeks 3 and 4, I found myself spending 5-7 hours/day. There were a lot of videos to watch and take notes on, plus the exercises were harder. Expanding the 4-week fundamentals class to 6 weeks would mitigate this problem.
The curriculum had some minor glitches. Video sound quality was mostly excellent, but a handful of the videos had volume issues. Exercises and workshops could use editing. (Examples: On one of the exercises, it would have been helpful if the instructions had mentioned that it was ok for the alert box to display HTML elements as well as text strings. Also, in all the workshops, distinguishing overview from task steps was confusing at first because it wasn't clear that we were supposed to build out the code in separate files for part 1, part 2, etc.)
Overall, I was satisfied with my Bellingham Nucamp experience, and I plan to continue with the full-stack camp in January. I'm glad to have a break between rounds, though, because I've realized I still need to do a lot of work just to absorb the content from the HTML/CSS/JavaScript camp.

I received my Bachelors degree in software development but felt that the languages and projects I worked on were not applicable to the job market now and opportunities in my area. I wanted to wonder into the world of full stack and felt this fundamentals course with Nucamp would be a good starting point. It completely exceeded my expectations. The course work is not too heavy so you could definitely manage a full time job while taking it. The weekly workshops were a great source of information and review. Each week we coded a project that built off of each weeks lessons. I look forward to moving on to the full stack course next.
The only con for me was that this course did not have a physical location in my area. That being said it was a remote location where both the teacher and other students were in my area.

Nucamp Experience
I chose Nucamp because of the pricing and the online course structure. I’ve completed the Web Development Fundamentals bootcamp, which was a great start for a newbie like myself. It was very much fast-paced. I can honestly say that I’ve learned a lot in a short period of time. The amount of support that one receives when stuck is wonderful. My plan is to continue on to Full Stack coding bootcamp through Nucamp.

HTML, CSS< and JavaScript at Nucamp
This bootcamp offers an introduction to the essentials of web page development –– HTML, CSS, and JavaScript. Although hesitant at first, I am truly glad that I took this course. The curriculum was very well put together and my instructor was very knowledgeable, friendly, and helpful. Will definitely take the more advanced Nucamp courses in the future.

Flexible option for those with busy schedules
Flexible for those of us who are busy with full-time jobs and don't have the luxury to go back to school. It's a nice blend of both online coursework, and in-person lectures.

Web Development Fundamental
The course was great to learn the fundamentals and the teacher was super. The flexible learning the best for those who have a full-time job. Small classes, helpful staff, and affordable Bootcamp. Absolute worth it!

Relevant Material
The use current and relevant web technologies that are currently used in the industry .. I appreciate that over the tilt towards theoretical knowledge thought in traditional schools. It is certainly fast paced ,but it goes without saying you have to do the work and the support system is good
