freeCodeCamp is a free online educational program for all aspiring developers. What I really wanted to get down to are 2 things.
1) What value does it provide?
2) Where does it fall short?
We definitely answered both of those questions, and much more. As a bonus, there's tons of advice for aspiring developers packed into this episode - especially for those that don't have a lot of money to spend on things like coding bootcamps and CS degrees. Enjoy!
