What Alumni think of SheCodes

i started shecodes 2023 and had so much joy in me but along the line i suffered a major setback that made me stop learning . Fast forward to 2026, i came back and was so happy i still had access. started all over again, learnt, did my projects all over again, summitted them all over again and i must say, am so grateful for this. Its like i got back in control of my life and did what i always wanted to do. Thank you shecodes because my loved ones always wanted to know how far i have gone. This is a dream come true!.

Another great and very interesting project that helped set some concepts and introduced other cool ones! Looking back it's amazing to see what I can do now in comparison to when I just started.

I completed the whole SheCodes Plus Add-on today! I am super proud of the efforts I have put in the past couple of weeks and feel so good about the World Clock App I built in this project. Thanks to Matt and the whole SheCodes Team- It was quite interesting!

Making projects being guided step by step has been terrific to fully understand the concepts and acknowledge where my most common mistakes come from. I feel like I've learned so much so far!

This workshop was a great step forward in building more dynamic and interactive applications using React. It helped me better understand how to work with APIs, manage components, and improve the overall user experience of my projects. The lessons were clear, practical, and easy to follow, with hands-on exercises that made everything click. I especially enjoyed creating real features that I can now apply to my own projects. A very rewarding experience, I highly recommend it to anyone looking to level up their React skills!

Before joining SheCodes, I had little experience in coding, but this workshop helped me build a strong foundation in HTML, CSS, and JavaScript. The lessons were clear, practical, and Matt really made it easy to follow. I especially enjoyed working on real projects, which helped me understand how coding works in real life. This experience has increased my confidence and motivated me to continue learning and growing in tech. I highly recommend SheCodes to beginners who want to start their coding journey.

This project was challenging in the best way, and really fun to finish.

She Codes Python completely transformed my approach to coding. The lessons are clear, practical, and empowering, making Python approachable even for beginners like me. The supportive community and hands-on projects gave me the confidence to build real applications and explore programming in ways I never thought possible. I feel equipped, inspired, and ready to keep growing as a developer!

Highly recommend this bootcamp! I have learned so much and still learning as I continue in my journey to landing my first junior software developer job. Great videos and projects!

Such a fun project. It's incredibly motivating seeing how far I've come from when I started the course to now being able to build an entire responsive website and though it has its tough moments, it doesn't feel impossible anymore.

Completing the Plus add-on was a really valuable extension of my SheCodes experience. It helped me deepen my understanding of JavaScript and apply what I learned to a real-world project with confidence.

I really enjoyed the Plus AI Graduation course. It gave me hands-on experience using AI APIs and applying them in real projects.

This was so fun!! I took C++ in high school and survived with the help of a friend. This was so much easier and I could see a future of the projects I want to build online myself, without the need of big companies. Here I come Indie web!!! Now to learn how to code chat boxes!!!!

Nice project, making a weather app with Python.

Really enjoyed this workshop! I built a fully functional world clock project and gained a lot more confidence in JavaScript and real-world development. Thank you!

Thanks to SheCodes, I developed strong foundations in HTML, CSS, and JavaScript. The practical projects and clear explanations helped me improve both my technical and problem-solving skills.

Each lesson is bite-sized, you actually build projects step by step.

This project has helped me reinforce my existing programming knowledge and take a closer look at React. Specifically, it helped me with: Practising project organisation: deciding what should be a component and identifying the main file where all the pieces come together. Understanding the purpose of hooks: useState() and useEffect(). Making API calls (SheCodes Weather API). Practising JSX (HTML with JS). Deepening my understanding of styling and experimenting with color palettes. A few years ago I built a weather app with vanilla JS and found it quite tedious. Back then I also paid little attention to styling. I just wanted it to work. Now, with a solid grasp of the fundamentals and using React, which simplifies the code considerably, I was able to focus much more on UX/UI. Overall, a very worthwhile course. It has its complexity. React, API calls, asynchronous functions but the project is small enough that the architecture never becomes overwhelming.

In this project i changed my mind so many times that I got stuck several times, codes that failed which led to (again) some frustrations, but guess that's normal. I needed to cut some ideas that i had cause they were to complex for the stage of learning were I am now. I'm sure we will learn what I wanted in future workshops so that I can update this project as I originally intended to be.

The content is well-structured. What I particularly appreciated was the hands-on approach — each module included practical exercises that reinforced the concepts and allowed me to build real projects along the way. The instructions were clear and engaging, that made complex ideas easier to understand.

This course took my understanding of Python to a whole new level. I worked with data structures more confidently, learned how to manipulate and clean data effectively, and got hands-on experience reading from and writing to CSV files, which made working with real-world data feel much more approachable. One of my favourite parts was learning how to create plots and visualise data. Being able to transform raw data into clear, meaningful insights was incredibly rewarding, and I especially enjoyed learning how to customise visualisations to suit my style, having that level of creative control made the process even more engaging. I also really enjoyed diving into Object-Oriented Programming (OOP). Understanding how to structure code using classes and objects has made my projects feel much more organised and scalable. Overall, the course was super practical and helped everything click through real exercises and projects.

Fun workshop! The hands-on project improved my coding skills in CSS, HTML and Javascript. The lesson is an easy to follow structure. Highly recommend!

I enjoyed this workshop and learning how to integrate APIs with Python in Google Colab. It was a great review of connecting an AI API into a project. One challenge I ran into was the API’s limit on output length. When I tried to create a more detailed and fun itinerary, the results would get cut off for trips longer than about 3 days. After troubleshooting, I simplified the format to keep everything running smoothly. Overall, it was a fun project and a great refresher on working with AI and APIs.

Through SheCodes, I have learned a lot about hosting and using moment.js in a project. Building this World Clock helped me understand how to work with time zones, external libraries, and bringing it all together in a real, live project.

Another fun project where we learn to design our own world clock!!

Learning so much with every lesson and getting easier to build full projects!!

I enjoyed the workshop, it is very well structrured in a way that you learn bit by bit without feeling overloaded. I was an absolut begginer and I don't even identify with the tech world and still managed.However, I was expecting more follow up to our homeworks and projects, like critics or sugestions, not just "do it", "submit it" and get a "well done, it's approved". It is very unpersonal in my prespective.

My AI course experience was truly amazing and life-changing. At first, I was nervous because I thought AI would be difficult to understand, but the course made everything simple, practical, and exciting. I learned how to create prompts, generate creative ideas, improve my projects, and use AI in a smart way for school, business, and personal growth.

Completing the Advanced React add-on was a great experience. It helped me strengthen my understanding of React and build more interactive applications with confidence. I really enjoyed the hands-on project of dictionary app. This course has taken my coding skills to the next level.

Loved SheCodes Advanced, it was so informative and the final project was super fun to do, with great instructions throughout!

I had a great experience with the SheCodes workshop! The lessons were clear, engaging and easy to follow; which made learning enjoyable. I especially liked the hands-on projects that helped me build real skills. This workshop boosted my confidence in coding and I would highly recommend it to anyone starting their tech journey.

SheCodes Plus AI was an exciting step forward in my coding journey. It made complex concepts like APIs and AI feel approachable and practical. I loved how the lessons combined clear explanations with hands-on projects, so I could immediately apply what I learned. Building something that actually integrates AI felt incredibly rewarding and gave me a real sense of progress. The flexibility to learn at my own pace, together with the supportive Slack community, kept me motivated throughout. This course didn’t just expand my technical skills—it showed me what’s possible. I now feel more confident exploring more advanced, AI-driven projects.

Great course, we learn a lot with simple projects.

This was admittedly a challenging workshop, but extremely worth it! I'm really pleased with my final project. As with all the previous workshops, the guidance and support from the team was excellent. Matt does a really great job of breaking things down in order to explain the "plumbing" of how a react app works and describing what the code is doing at certain stages, (such as in the case of how the props are passing through to the other components and how the useStates help to set and define the data for further functions to operate). It made it really accessible and digestible to someone who still feels relatively new to coding!

I’m proud to have completed the SheCodes workshop, which greatly boosted my confidence and coding skills. I gained hands-on experience in HTML, CSS, and JavaScript through well-structured lessons and practical projects. This experience has motivated me to continue growing and exploring opportunities in tech.

This workshop was a wonderful opportunity for me to learn how to use APIs and work with an AI API. Throughout the project, I learned debugging, handling real API responses, and improving user experience with dynamic updates and animations.

The final project was a lot of fun. Thank you.

The final project was really effective at balancing guidance and student application on new founded React skills. This was a highly rewarding challenge.

I had a lot of fun with the SheCodes Plus add-on course. Working on the world clock project, I ended up building a carousel to display the cities in a more user-friendly way, which made the whole experience even more enjoyable. It was especially interesting to learn how to use Moment.js, as it made handling dates way easier and less frustrating.

This workshop was such a great experience for me. I really enjoyed how everything was broken down into simple, easy to understand steps, especially as someone still growing in coding. It helped me become more confident with HTML, CSS, and responsive design, and I now feel more comfortable building real projects from scratch. I would definitely recommend it to anyone who wants to start or improve their web development skills.

Before SheCodes, I had limited experience with web development. Now, I've built real projects like a weather app using APIs, and I actually understand how everything connects. The platform has made learning feel manageable and even fun, and the step-by-step guidance helps me stay motivated. It gave me the confidence to keep growing in tech!

This has been, by far, the most difficult coding language for me. Matt really does a great job at "zooming out" and explaining the reason for different components, which helped me connect the dots better. I think I am the most proud of this react weather project. Thank you :)

The responsiveness and SEO course from SheCodes really helped me understand how to build websites that actually work across all devices. I especially liked how practical it was, because I could apply everything immediately to my own portfolio. It gave me confidence in both my design and development skills, and I now feel more intentional about how I structure and optimise my projects.

I really enjoyed this workshop! It helped me strengthen my understanding of HTML, CSS, and JavaScript, especially how they work together to create interactive web pages. I loved the hands-on approach and building real projects like a themed webpage with dark mode. It made everything feel practical and easy to follow. I’d definitely recommend it to anyone starting out in frontend development.

It was such a valuable experience. I learned how to build my own AI project and gained confidence working with real tools. The lessons were clear, practical, and very beginner-friendly. I’m proud of what I created and excited to keep learning!

Fun project!

SheCodes Basics was honestly such a great experience. I learned a lot about HTML, CSS and JavaScript through exercises and projects that I had fun doing.

From "Too Complex" to Certified Front-End Developer! 👩‍💻 I am thrilled to share that I have officially completed my first Front-End Certification project with SheCodes! 🎓 Before joining SheCodes, I was a complete novice with no programming background. I always thought coding was too complex for me to learn. Sometime ago, I looked at a screen of code and thought it was a language I could never speak. Transitioning into the world of a developer with no prior background felt like a mountain to climb. But this workshop changed everything! The lessons are broken down into bite-sized, easy-to-understand steps that make sense even if you've never seen a line of code before. I’ve gone from knowing nothing to confidently building my own projects. It is the perfect starting point for any woman looking to enter the world of tech! A huge thank you to Matt and the SheCodes team for this great privilege and opportunity, and for making the 'impossible' feel easy to understand. May your generations never lack help! Onward to the next challenge! 🚀 #SheCodes #FrontEndDeveloper #WomenInTech #CareerTransition #CodingJourney #FullStack #WomenWhoCode #TechAchievement

Challenging but a great workshop for a beginner like myself trying to dip my toes into coding. I'll be running through the final project few more times to hone in my skills and figure out how to clean up my lines. Looking forward to what I learn next!

I really love the creative results when finishing with another SheCodes project where ideas become actual visible. Even with some errors to solve, which can be frustrating sometimes, glad that we have multiple AI tools these days and the internet to find answers.

Completing the SheCodes Python Basics course has been a really rewarding experience that helped me build a strong foundation in programming. Over the eight weeks, I learned how to work with variables, functions, loops, conditionals, lists, and user input, and I began exploring how Python can interact with real data through APIs. The highlight was creating an Interactive Weather App, which brought all the concepts together in a practical project. Seeing it come to life step by step really boosted my confidence and showed me how these skills can be used to build functional, meaningful applications.

Great and difficult project.

Before starting, coding felt intimidating, but this course made everything feel simple, practical, and actually enjoyable. The lessons were well-structured, easy to follow, and I loved how I could immediately apply what I learned through hands-on projects. In just a few weeks, I’ve learned the basics of HTML, CSS, and JavaScript, and I can now build my own simple web pages from scratch — something I never thought I’d be able to do so quickly! What stood out the most was the supportive community and how encouraging the whole experience was. It gave me the confidence to keep learning and growing in tech. If you’re thinking about starting coding but don’t know where to begin, this is definitely a great place to start. 🚀

I thoroughly enjoyed this Workshop and I'm really pleased with my final product. I'm really looking forward to putting my newly acquired skills to the test and building some of my own personal projects for my portfolio.

I absolutely loved this workshop! Matt explained everything so clearly, and each lesson introduced something new that I could immediately put into practice. It was so exciting to see my skills grow step by step, and by the end I felt proud and confident creating my own landing page for the final project.

The final project was very helpful in learning how to integrate AI APIs and APIs in general.

I could write HTML and CSS, but deploying a project felt like a wall I couldn't climb. Eight weeks of SheCodes changed that. I went from having code that only lived on my laptop to a fully functional weather app — live on the internet, pulling real API data, with a 5-day forecast. SheCodes taught me how to bring everything together: APIs, JavaScript, and actually getting your work out into the world. If you know the basics but keep stopping at 'how do I ship this?' — this is for you.

Learned so much and so excited to show off those skills I learned in the final project. Being able to do it at my own pace but still have a deadline was motivation to keep me going.

Coding has completely changed the way I think. It taught me how to solve problems step by step and turn creative ideas into real projects. Every time I build something from scratch, I feel proud and motivated to learn even more. Coding is not just a skill for me, it’s a passion.

This was a fun add on project! It allowed me to brush up on some of the basics and learn a few new things. :)

This course taught me how to combine HTML, CSS, and JavaScript to build interactive web pages. I learned to use libraries like Moment.js for real‑time features, and I now feel confident creating functional, professional‑looking projects.

By the end of the course, I had built my first project and gained the confidence to keep learning. SheCodes made coding feel achievable and fun!

I recently completed the SheCodes Plus Add on workshop and it was a great learning experience. In this workshop, I built a live world clock that displays the current date and time for different cities across multiple time zones. Using a select element, users can choose between different locations, and the time updates dynamically. One of the most exciting parts was learning how to work with Moment.js to display live dates and times. I also added extra features like showing the user’s current location and linking back to the homepage when viewing another city. Everything was explained in a clear and practical way, which made the concepts easy to understand and apply. I truly enjoyed building this project and seeing how powerful JavaScript can be when working with time and different locations around the world. I'm grateful for the learning experience with SheCodes and excited to keep building more projects as I continue my coding journey. 🚀

Learning how to integrate AI into a website was really interesting and opened up a lot of creative possibilities. Throughout the course, I explored how AI can be used to generate content dynamically and make web applications more interactive. For my project, I built a Character Name Generator that creates names based on a user’s description of a character. It was really fun to see how a few details could turn into unique and fitting names, and the project helped me better understand how AI can be used as part of a real web application.

It was so interesting, sometimes a little hardly but very useful expirience🧡Thank you for this knowledges and for the opportunity to finish project even after long pause🙏

Completing Weeks 1–3 of the SheCodes program has been an exciting and rewarding experience for me.

This experience has boosted my confidence in coding and motivated me to continue improving my web development skills.

I am absolutely thrilled with the project I got. The experience was fantastic and exceeded my expectations. Highly recommend to anyone looking for quality results!

I highly recommend it. It took me some time to finish the project, but the instructions and explanations were very clear.

Always fun, always challenging and seeing the end project: always worth it!

SheCodes Plus was a really solid step forward in my coding journey. Before starting, I had basic knowledge, but this course helped me finally understand how everything connects — especially JavaScript, APIs, and real project structure. What I appreciated most is the clarity of the lessons and how practical they are. You don’t just watch videos — you actually build things step by step. The weather app project was especially helpful because it made concepts like APIs, functions, and real-time data feel much more intuitive.

Having been a literature and arts person my whole life, I never pictured myself coding. I'm so glad I took a chance on learning something outside my comfort zone, because it has been so rewarding! I absolutely loved diving deeper into Python and building a final project that could showcase all the things I learned about working with data. Python was much more challenging for me to learn than HTML, CSS and JavaScript, and there were times I got really frustrated. However, this meant that every time some new information or concept really *clicked* and I could successfully implement it in my code, I felt a huge sense of accomplishment. Now, I love when I'll be talking with someone or watching something that includes data and realise how I could interact with that data in Python. It's not something I ever thought I could do, and feel really proud that I've stuck with it. Learning Python has become a new tool I use to create things I never thought I could create before, like interactive games and graphs to chart my reading habits. I'm really sad the class has come to an end, but I look forward to building on the skills I learned to create my own projects!

This course was a great experience for me. I learned the fundamentals of HTML, CSS, and JavaScript, which helped me understand how websites are built and styled.

Thank you, SheCodes, for this amazing learning opportunity!

Working on this travel project for the SheCodes Responsive course was an amazing learning experience. I got to practice HTML, CSS, and responsive design while creating a visually appealing and functional website. I especially enjoyed building the interactive cards, mini gallery, and map embeds, and experimenting with grids and hover effects to make the content more engaging. This project pushed me to pay attention to detail, accessibility, and overall user experience, and I’m really proud of the final result!

I most definitely recommend this course. It was really exciting and challenging at the same time. Every time I was able to complete a homework assignment, I would see just how much this course has taught me. And being able to complete the final project was such an amazing experience with a wonderful sense of achievement.

This project was my SheCodes Week 4 responsive portfolio, and I’m really proud of how it turned out. I focused on creating a clean, modern design that showcases my frontend skills while being fully responsive across devices. I built interactive project cards, a hero section, and a custom footer with SVG social links, ensuring consistency in color, spacing, and typography. I also optimized images, added semantic HTML, and included SEO best practices like meta descriptions and Open Graph tags. Overall, this project allowed me to combine design and development skills into a professional, user-friendly portfolio that I can continue to build on!
