I managed to try a lot of courses and I really like that they update each course. Very good way to learn something new and useful. ----- ### "Jump start your development journey or at least check if it is for you" — 5.0/5 > **Verified Reviewer** | *10 June 2022* | Telecommunications | Recommendation rating: 9.0/10 > > **Pros**: Very clean and friendly User Interface. In course mode you have 3 sections - instructions to the left, in middle place for your code and effects to the right - I really liked it\! > > **Cons**: Speed might be better also remember to save your code so that you don't have to write it again on reload. Or don't save - you will faster remember material ;) > > I wanted to extend my overall understanding of computer science basics and polishing basics to the javascript and react programming languages ----- ### "Went from the free trial to one year Codecademy Pro" — 5.0/5 > **Alexandru Cristian** | *13 July 2022* | Internet | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: The most interesting feature of Codecademy is that the code can be run from the browser, followed by the examples, and the fact that in almost all the courses you put the learning to test, exercising and writing code. > > **Cons**: I liked least the variety of courses, but I am sure that the content will be improved in the future. > > Codecademy is a great place to learn coding, and get the fundamentals of a programming language. ----- ### "My Review of Codecademy" — 3.0/5 > **Moustafa Medhat** | *27 June 2022* | Medical Devices | Recommendation rating: 4.0/10 > > **Pros**: I like that Codecademy provides competitions and challenges for the community to enhance their experience. Codecademy is affordable, especially for students as it offers a student discount. Also, I like the talks and sessions that Codecademy organizes weekly where they host people from the industry. > > **Cons**: The user interface is not food to encourage people to study. Codecademy lacks gamification which makes the cycle of learning more exciting. Also, I don't like that most of the courses are out of date and don't qualify me for today's market labor. > > My overall experience with Codecademy is not good. ----- ### "A review of Codecademy" — 4.0/5 > **Aidan** | *23 October 2023* | Computer Games | Recommendation rating: 6.0/10 > > **Pros**: Codecademy has has a lot of courses that are available for free and even more that are available if you pay. > > **Cons**: If you want to unlock more courses it is very expensive also the courses don’t give too much context to the exercises . > > My overall experience with Codecademy was positive but a lot of the information I learned I didn’t know how to apply a lot of it to the real world. ----- Page: 1 / 2\ Next: [Next page](https://www.capterra.co.uk/software/1035088/codecademy?page=2) ## Links - [View on Capterra](https://www.capterra.co.uk/software/1035088/codecademy) ## This page is available in the following languages | Locale | URL | | de | | | de-AT | | | de-CH | | | en | | | en-AE | | | en-AU | | | en-CA | | | en-GB | | | en-IE | | | en-IL | | | en-IN | | | en-NZ | | | en-SG | | | en-ZA | | | it | | ----- ## Structured Data
