QUICK DISCLAIMER
This is not a bootcamp or a step-by-step tutorial.
We won't teach you how to code a web app, or how to build a guided project. You can find that information on YouTube, ChatGPT, and Google.
However, when you need guidance on niche questions or want to fill small gaps in your skillset, you'll have the support of your peers and mentors to help you navigate the unique challenges of building your idea.
