Today, I’m going to talk
Today, I’m going to talk about how to get ready to start at a coding bootcamp and make the most out of your time in the bootcamp - and the preparation tips to get there.
I’m Artur Meyster, a bootcamp grad and the CTO of Career Karma, helping people get prepared and accepted to coding bootcamps for free on Career Karma!
There are lots of advice on how to learn how to code, but let’s face it.
Bootcamps are
- short
- intense
- super demanding.
How to get ready to start a coding bootcamp:
Make sure you go over the fundamentals. Make sure you know if statements, for and while loops and basic syntax of your language of choice.
Get comfortable using a text editor. Whether its Atom, VS code, Sublime or another editor, make sure you know how to use it. Bonus points for customizing your own shortcuts to make you more efficient.
Learn the basic of Git and Github. Think of it as Dropbox for your code. As a software engineer, you will be using git everyday so might as well learn how to use it before starting a bootcamp.
Go over the syllabus and research the popular frameworks that your bootcamp uses. Learn what is the difference between libraries vs frameworks, what is React or Ruby on Rails. Read some blog posts on databases and servers just so you know what those terms mean.
The last words of advice is connecting with somebody who is either a current student or an alumni of that bootcamp.
Whether you are already on Career karma or LinkedIn, try to get advice about what to prepare for from people who are 1 step ahead of you. You’d be surprised how much you can learn.
***Bonus: Reach out to one person in Career Karma who is in a coding bootcamp and ask them about their experience.
