Hi jake, sorry for the late response - I haven't looked at this for a while. I'm finding the odin project amazing. It pushes you hard but you end up learning a lot from it and having a lot to show for your time and effort. I'd highly recommend trying it out.

Hi everyone! My name is Lauren. I'm a business analyst and codenewbie, trying to get better at vanilla html/css/javascript and start building real projects! I want to eventually do freelance frontend development in some capacity. My bachelors degree was in frontend web development but I haven't had a chance to do much with it to this point, so I'm working to change that! Great meeting you all :)

Andy Anderson

Hello, my name is Andy. I discovered this site while watching a YouTube video from the Codeland Conference 2018 - the speaker mentioned it as a good resource. I'm not exactly a newbie - I have a BS in Computer Science and actually did a lot of coding in the early part of my career - but it's been a long time since I got pulled away from the fun stuff to do more management and administrative stuff. Now that I'm retired, I want to get back to coding. I guess the first thing to do is try to catch up with the changes in technology over the past 25+ years. I'm looking forward to finding kindred spirits.
