"A game changer for aspiring developers!" 5/5 What do you like best about Scrimba? Scrimba's platform redefines how coding is taught. Being able to pause and edit live code during lessons made complex React concepts like hooks and state management so much easier to grasp. The instructors are clear, engaging, and you can really tell they understand what they're talking about in the way that they teach and the analogies they use. A lot of content is taught through developing applications yourself, that mirror real-world projects which is super helpful too. Their community is also well-knit and provided valuable guidance and motivation throughout my journey, and after only a short while of using Scrimba, I gained the skills to pass my first technical interview for a front-end engineer position! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What do you dislike about Scrimba? The only thing I disliked was a very small portion of the main Learn React 19 course, where there were issues with the mini-browser refreshing for the viewer during a demo carried out by the instructor. However, the instructor dealt with it very well and acknowledged it beforehand to avoid confusion. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What problems is Scrimba solving and how is that benefiting you? The main difference between Scrimba and every other course out there is, of course, the ability to interact with the code in each scrim. Other tutorials typically lack engagement which leads to passive learning, but Scrimba's platform combats this by encouraging you to take pauses between scrims and work on challenges that test your knowledge.

"Scrimba's interactive & FUN code-along learning is the BEST for beginners with no tech background" 5/5 What do you like best about Scrimba? A little bit about my background story: Before I decided to stick with Scrimba, I had attempted several times to learn front-end development as a non-tech beginner (I have been a marketer for 5 years) online after my day job but always ended up giving up. I had subbed to some major e-learning platforms (e.g Coursera), but was very frustrated after a dozen video or text-only courses that were hosted by some of FAANG's teams -- I found it really hard to keep up with the lectures as soon as some slightly advanced concepts turned up, and then I would get stuck in the process with no one to turn to. Of course, I could always google the answer, but most of the time I didn't even know what to ask or where to start since these were all new concepts to me! Then I found Scrimba's frontend course on Coursera and gave it a go, and immediately I got addicted to their learn-while-you-code way of teaching -- I got to code along IN the video!! (I believe it's called Scrims) How cool and fun is that! And Scrimba teachers always introduce the coding concepts with real-life scenarios (i.e what you would normally encounter in your role as a developer), and little projects, which I get to code along one step at a time with the teachers, and which I can actually showcase as my personal projects in my portfolio. :) After a few modules, I immediately decided to stick with Scrimba and went for their official platform's Pro plan, which gives me access to all the developer courses (my main goal is to be a proud Frontend Developer Career Path graduate ;P). Scrimba teachers are professional, patient, friendly, and passionate about their work in the community, which is really inspiring for someone (I mean me ;)) who's new to web development & design and determined to change careers to pursue what they're really passionate about. :) Scrimba's Discord community is supporting, friendly, and very well-managed -- dedicated channels for respective developer courses, help sections, and regular weekly events for various tech and career topics. As someone who's currently in between jobs, joining a vibrant and welcoming community really helps with the learning journey -- it makes me feel less alone! :) So far, I've been really enjoying my frontend developer journey with the Scrimba community, and I intend to finally truly make my career switch at the end! \*(A big shoutout to the lovely human beings at Scrimba who make learning to code accessible for everyone!)\* :) Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What do you dislike about Scrimba? So far, I've been really enjoying my learning here with the Scrimba community. I'll report a bug if I see one ;P Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What problems is Scrimba solving and how is that benefiting you? Scrimba is making learning to code accessible for beginners with no tech background. I'm changing careers and Scrimba's Frontend Developer Career Path program along with its interactive code-along learning experience is perfect for me! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Software Engineer (intern) Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.) 5/11/2024 "Designed THE Right Way!" 5/5 What do you like best about Scrimba? The interface is exceptionally user-friendly. For most lectures the shorter duration really helps with keeping concentrated and makes me feel feel gratified on each completion thus making me want to continue more of the playlist. Scrimba being known for it's Front-end course and then proving that they'll do a wonderful job teaching you frontend as soon as you start interacting with their platform speaks volumes. I am throroughly impressed. As of now I have enrolled myself in the Python Course which is one of many available courses apart from their flagship FrontEnd Course and it's free too. Love the cost-effectiveness and open-education ideology. The integration and interaction between the tutorial and the online IDE is powerful enough to always want me to try out different experiments within a lesson. Customer Support is easily accessible and by the means of quick interactive lessons I can notice how much more frequently I use it as compared to other platforms. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What do you dislike about Scrimba? It would be nicer if the courses could be made more comprehensive and more exercises were integrated into them. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What problems is Scrimba solving and how is that benefiting you? I need to learn fast to be able to keep up with the dynamic nature of a Start-Up and Scrimba really helps me eliminate distractions thus making me grasp conceots and complete courses a lot faster.

I haven't encountered any issues but maybe to offer more coursers that would be great. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What problems is Scrimba solving and how is that benefiting you? I'm learning front end development thanks to Scrimba, I tried different courses or platforms but didn't click much with me until I found out about scrimba and it's a win. It allows you to interact in time and apply what you've learned and that's huge in my opinion. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.) 10/24/2023 "The best learning platform I've used in my programming journey" 5/5 What do you like best about Scrimba? Scrimba is very intuitive to use. It emphasizes hands-on learning and building practice. The courses are up to date and easy to follow, the projects are well-designed, the teachers are awesome and knowledgeable, and the community is very inclusive. Support is great too, I usually get queries resolved within 24 hours. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What do you dislike about Scrimba? At the time of writing this review, Scrimba does not have courses on backend technologies, as it mainly focuses on frontend, although that is about to change with the release of Scrimba 2.0. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What problems is Scrimba solving and how is that benefiting you? Scrimba has been indispensable in my frontend web development journey. It provides a structured path from HTML, CSS, and JavaScript to advanced React concepts, all in one place. The project-based learning helps to solidify the understanding of the concepts.

JE John Richard E. Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.) 10/24/2023 "Good overall" 4/5 What do you like best about Scrimba? It's very easy to get into. Every thing is explained one small step at a time. If you're struggling with learning to code using other resources then i would definetively give Scrimba a shot. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What do you dislike about Scrimba? I have come across some small bugs here and there but very rarely and not something that's critical enough for me to remember what it even was. Other than that i would say that the "classes" are taught by different people, so you might jam really well with one course but not so well with a different course due to it having a different teacher. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What problems is Scrimba solving and how is that benefiting you? Scrimba has helped me to learn how to code. Granted it's not the only resource i'm currently using but i can definetively see why others have praised it. If you're like me and have tried other resources only to be overwhelmed and confused in the beginning then Scrimba might provide a better introduction to programming Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Can pause the recording to do a challenge or play around and then go right back to recording. Really cool. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What do you dislike about Scrimba? Right now it's mainly Frontend technologies and many people are eagerly awaiting any back end courses, which are supposed to be added soon. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What problems is Scrimba solving and how is that benefiting you? Besides the classes helping me to come up to speed on technologies I'm trying to add and polish, the community is exactly what I was looking for. Self taught programmers feel isolated and I certainly do. I now have study buddies and 'friends' and just today started a group project to practice git and agile methodologies. That's hard to practice on your own. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
