Ask HN: Which programming bootcamp should I attend?

2 pointsby thetest3rover 11 years ago
Hey Hackers,<p>I&#x27;ve been doing some research into programming bootcamps recently. I&#x27;ve seen that many people recommend Hack Reactor, DevBootCamp, MakerSquare, and Devatory. Is there a special reason why many of these camps teach RoR? Which would you recommend and why?

What are you looking to get out of the program?<p>Ruby on Rails is often taught because it is one of the most in-demand skills in tech startups (other skills would be frontend skills, iOS, data science) - this applies to Silicon Valley, NY, and possibly Austin (not too familiar with Austin&#x27;s tech scene). Many startups use Python, Java, or C#, (popularity in that order), but it&#x27;s a drastically smaller number. Big tech corps are a different matter, but coding programs don&#x27;t really target them.<p>The location the program is in matters quite a bit and can influence your ability to get a job in a certain location.<p>I&#x27;m somewhat familiar with these programs. If you provided an email in your profile we could talk about it more.
