I really enjoyed building this dictionary. It was a great opportunity to practice React and APIs while creating something useful. I also became a little obsessed with components and kept looking for ways to break the project into smaller, reusable pieces. It was really satisfying to see all the different parts come together!

This project was a great opportunity to put my React and JavaScript skills into practice. I learned how to work with APIs, manage state, pass data between components, and create a responsive interface for different screen sizes. It was challenging at times, especially when connecting the different components and debugging the application, but solving these problems step by step made me much more confident.

I’m so happy to have completed the SheCodes React Add-on and reached the end of my React journey with SheCodes! React has definitely been one of the more challenging technologies I’ve learned. I didn’t find it as easy to click with as some of the other languages I’ve worked with, and there were definitely moments where I felt frustrated or unsure of myself. But I kept working through the challenges, debugging my code, and trying to understand not just what was going wrong, but why. Throughout the React Add-on, I’ve gained a much better understanding of components, props, state, APIs, and how everything comes together to create a working application. I’ve also become much more comfortable with making mistakes, researching errors, and figuring things out for myself, which I know is such an important part of learning to code. I’m really proud of myself for sticking with React and finishing the course, especially when it didn’t always come easily. Looking back at where I started, I can see how much I’ve learned and how much more confident I am with coding. Completing this certificate feels like a really exciting milestone in my coding journey. I’m looking forward to taking everything I’ve learned from SheCodes and continuing to build my skills, create more projects, and see where my journey into tech takes me next!

Before joining SheCodes, coding felt intimidating. Now it's become one of my favorite hobbies and something I genuinely look forward to every day. I love that the workshops encourage creativity while still teaching real development skills. Every project challenged me to think, experiment, and improve, and seeing my progress from my first webpage to fully interactive applications has been incredibly rewarding. The projects gave me the confidence to explore beyond the lessons, and I found myself building features, refining designs, and creating applications that felt like my own instead of just homework. SheCodes didn't just teach me how to code, it helped me discover that I truly enjoy software development. If you're looking for a program that teaches you practical front-end development while giving you the confidence to continue learning on your own, I highly recommend SheCodes. It has completely changed the way I think about coding, and I'm excited to continue my journey into React and beyond.

DEFINITELY by far the hardest module to complete. Nice way to use "save the [hardest] for last" here. Overall, the challenges were fun to build. Had some trouble with the initial setup of 'react' in the terminal along with the 'weather API' for the last 2 weeks of the build. With patience and carefully going through the lessons to comprehend which aspects of the SheCodes Weather API to integrate into the functions- it got better. Using 'console.log' helps a lot. After a minor meltdown, a few migraines and a total 'brain fry' moment, all is well.

Learning React has been one of the more challenging parts of my coding journey so far. Compared to HTML, CSS, JavaScript, and Python, React took me longer to understand, and I found myself needing to spend extra time working through concepts such as components, state, props, and handling API data. Although it didn't come as naturally to me as some of the previous languages I have learned, I gradually developed a solid understanding of how React works. As I continued building projects and troubleshooting errors, I became more confident in breaking down problems and understanding how different parts of an application work together. While I know there is still plenty to learn, completing React has given me a good foundation to build on. It has also reinforced the importance of persistence, patience, and problem solving when learning new technologies. Overall, the experience has been rewarding, and I feel more prepared to continue developing my React skills through future projects and real world experience.

Graduating from the React Add-on feels like a very special achievement for me. Working on the Dictionary project was definitely challenging, but it was also incredibly rewarding. Learning how to connect all the APIs and then seeing everything come together and work inside my own project was such an amazing feeling. Moments like that made all the effort worthwhile and reminded me why I wanted to learn coding in the first place. This SheCodes journey has not always been easy, but it has been deeply rewarding from beginning to end. I am especially proud that at 54, I have fulfilled an ambition I have had for years: to build responsive websites myself. That means so much to me personally, because it proves that it is never too late to learn something new and challenge yourself in a completely different field. I cannot thank the SheCodes team enough for the way the lessons are taught and structured. Being able to learn at my own pace made such a difference, and knowing that there is always real human support when questions come up made me feel supported throughout the process. A heartfelt thank you to Matt Delac and Bruno for their teaching, patience, and encouragement. To anyone thinking about doing a SheCodes course: go for it, and do not hesitate. It is challenging, yes, but it is also so rewarding, empowering, and worth every step.

The React Add-on week was the most fun I had in the whole Bootcamp. After the earlier weeks β€” which honestly tested my patience with a lot of debugging β€” everything started to click here. Building the Dictionary app piece by piece (search, definitions, synonyms, audio pronunciation, photos) and then designing it with my own branding was genuinely enjoyable. By the end I had a polished project that integrates three different APIs and actually looks like mine. Seeing it all come together, live and deployed, was a real confidence boost and a great way to finish the course. A heartfelt thank you to everyone who helped me along the way, and to the entire SheCodes team and community. Your support, encouragement, and the resources you provided made this journey possible. I'm so grateful!

A solid, project-based intro to React β€” by the end I had a live, deployed weather app pulling real data, which felt worthwhile. I'll be honest that it was harder than expected: much of my time went into debugging and wrestling with setup rather than learning new concepts. It tested my patience, but working through those problems is probably where I learned the most. Worth knowing going in that the struggle with tooling and debugging is part of the process, not a sign you're doing it wrong.

I’m really proud of myself for completing the SheCodes React course. Before starting, React felt overwhelming and I struggled to understand how everything connected, especially working with components, state, and APIs. But step by step, the lessons helped me build real confidence. One of my biggest achievements was building my own weather app from scratch. I learned how to fetch live data using APIs, handle errors, and display dynamic content on the screen. I also got more comfortable debugging my code instead of giving up when things didn’t work. There were moments where I felt stuck and frustrated, but the course structure and practice projects kept me going. Now I can actually build and deploy a working React project, which I never thought I’d be able to do at the beginning. Overall, SheCodes didn’t just teach me React β€” it taught me how to think like a developer and believe in my ability to solve problems. I’m excited to keep building more projects and growing my skills from here.

🎼 Composing Digital Masterpieces: My SheCodes Journey"Before joining SheCodes, looking at a codebase felt like listening to an orchestra where every musician played a different song. I could hear the potential, but I didn't understand the sheet music.This workshop was the masterclass I desperately needed. It didn't just teach me how to write lines of code; it taught me how to compose software. The curriculum is a beautifully structured symphony. I learned to build foundations with HTML, CSS, and Bootstrap, harmonize logic using JavaScript and Python, and manage advanced arrangements like Object-Oriented Programming (OOP), Data Structures, and File Manipulation.SheCodes seamlessly integrated modern essentials into the mix. I mastered professional tooling with VSCode, Git, and GitHub, connected to external data via APIs, built interactive interfaces with React.js, and learned how to implement AI, SEO, and Responsive design before launching my work through live Hosting.The absolute crescendo of my experience was testing my applications. There is no better feeling than hitting 'run' and watching your own creation work perfectly. It is exactly like hearing a musical score you wrote come to life flawlessly for the very first time. Thanks to SheCodes, the noise has officially become harmony. I am incredibly proud to say I have transformed into a confident Junior Developer. If you want to stop guessing the notes and start conducting your own digital masterpieces, this is the exact stage you need to stand on."

Studying Front-End Development at SheCodes was a turning point for me. I originally came from a psychology background and decided to pursue a career change into tech, initially believing I would learn full-stack development. Throughout the bootcamp, I gained skills in HTML, CSS, JavaScript, Python, React, Responsive Design, and APIs. The biggest challenge was making such a drastic career shift, but the learning experience was so engaging and accessible that I never lost motivation. What I enjoyed most was seeing my progress, adding my own creativity to projects, and becoming confident enough to continue learning independently. Although I am still searching for my first opportunity in tech, I truly believe this journey is already changing my life.

Through SheCodes Basic, I got my first hands-on experience with HTML, CSS, and JavaScript, building confidence one lesson at a time. SheCodes Plus took me deeper β€” I learned to work with APIs, GitHub, and hosting, and built real projects I could actually show off. The Responsive workshop taught me how to make websites look great on any device, and React pushed me to think like a real developer, working with components, state, and modern tools like VS Code and Netlify. What I loved most about SheCodes is that the lessons are short, practical, and flexible enough to fit into a busy schedule. I never felt lost because support was always available.

I'm so happy to have finally completed the React course. I learned so much! I'm excited to continue my journey into React because (although I struggled) I did find it to be a little simpler to use than vanilla JavaScript.

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.

This workshop pushed me to my limits with React! I’m thrilled to have built a fully responsive weather app with live API integration and unit toggling. It’s a great feeling to see complex code turn into a useful, working tool.

SheCodes React was an amazing experience! I learned how to build a real weather app using React, APIs, and deploy it to Netlify. I went from zero to building my own components. Highly recommend it!

This workshop was lots of fun. I've come out with a real appreciation for the utility of open API's! As rightly mentioned repeatedly throughout the course, there's certainly a learning curve for every API. Additionally, some are objectively much better and more user friendly than others! However, once you've deciphered them, the possibilities are endless. I'm also a converted mega fan of React, as I think the developers have done a fantastic job of interpolating JavaScript into HTML in such a way that is a lot more intuitive and user friendly! I've come away from this course with a really cool set of new skills and I can't wait to test them out and improve!

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.

Learning React proved to be the most challenging aspect of my journey so far. I appreciate the support, patience, and knowledge-sharing from the SheCodes team, which significantly helped my understanding of this framework.

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!

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

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 :)

You will need a lot of supplemental studying and self-teaching to understand React. This course moves too fast. I'd strongly recommend taking this course immediately after SheCodes Plus. If you complete the Python course first, you risk forgetting the JavaScript fundamentals you need here.

Just finished my React course β€” it was well structured and really helped me understand how to build and work with components, state, and APIs. I feel a lot more confident building projects on my own now.

This course helped make advanced React approachable! I went from basic concepts to building a live Dictionary App from scratch. The clear, step-by-step guidance on API integration helped me turn theory into a professional project I’m genuinely proud to show off.

It was really nice to do a different type of project again in this bootcamp, and integrating multiple APIs. React is a really interesting library and left me feeling motivated to build more, and after the React and React Add-on workshops, I feel comfortable enough to utilize it in more of my portfolio projects.

Having a basic understanding of React definitely seems like it will open a door in the current job market, so it was enjoyable to learn and apply it all to the weather project.
