Question 1

Can I sign up and try Boot.dev for free?

Accepted Answer

Yes! It's free to create an account and start learning. You'll get all the immersive and interactive features for free for a few chapters. After that, if you still haven't paid for a membership, you'll be in read-only (content only) mode.

Question 2

Hasn't AI made learning to code obsolete?

Accepted Answer

We use AI more than most tech companies - not just to build Boots and the Training Grounds, but also to assist us in our coding work... and we're still hiring developers! The demand for technical talent hasn't gone away. Companies need developers that are AI savvy and can modernize their codebases. The way developers work is changing rapidly, but the demand for developers who can build great software remains high. We teach software development skills for the modern AI assisted world, and also have some AI specific courses like how to build your own Agent.

Question 3

How long will it take to learn enough to be hired?

Accepted Answer

It's completely up to you. The time it will take you to be "job ready" will depend on how much you already know, how often you study, and how long you study for. That said, the backend career path takes many people about 12 months.

Question 4

Should I include Boot.dev projects in my resume and portfolio?

Accepted Answer

Absolutely! If you built it, use it. You'll build several personal projects while completing our curriculum, and our final course about finding jobs will show you how to construct a job-ready portfolio.

Question 5

What is Boot.dev? A bootcamp? An online school?

Accepted Answer

We're not a $10,000 bootcamp. We're not a $50,000 university degree. We are a self-paced, gamified online learning platform for learning back-end web development and computer science. You can learn with us for the price of a gym membership.

Question 6

What makes Boot.dev different?

Accepted Answer

We focus on teaching backend-development and data-related skills, which is somewhat of a rarity in online learning. We're also focused on solving what we believe is the hardest problem with online learning: boredom. If you prefer coding rather than watching, and your struggle with online learning is staying motivated and engaged, we think you'll like learning with us.

love it

I really enjoyed working in a larger system and learning more about some Python standard lib like os, dotenv, sys, argparse. The agent was cool, though running out of usage was a pain on the free plan. If you can afford it, get the low cost plan to remove blockers.

The Gemini SDK requires you to buy $15 worth of gemini credits... Also the Gemini SDK is way too complicated for this course

It's great project to work on -- a little challenging but enjoy it

Great course to do and learn about AI in Agentic mode

As someone that hasn't worked on any agents professionally. This course helped me understand start to finish what problems these agents can potentially solve, why that is a good or bad thing, and how we can go about making sure it's done correctly on the back-end.

This was good stuff!

not gonna lie, a lot of fun what you can do with AI in backend

Great course. I found it a littel terrifying at first, thinking I was creating a gremlin in my PC to run amok. But the course guides you through the safety steps.

Mediocrity doesn't cut it anymore

The only way to become a great developer is to write a lot of code
