I left the San Francisco Bay Area to learn to code at Dev League and it far exceeded any expectation I had of what a coding bootcamp could be.
At times it was incredibly arduous and you will feel like you won't be able to make it through, but the instructors are always helpful and the amazing community surrounding it immerses you into a world of programming .
I had very little coding experience before doing the challenge they provided, but I knew I made the right choice...

I had very little coding experience before doing the challenge they provided, but I knew I made the right choice from the first day. Three months later and my choice has brought out a myriad of skills in me that I didn’t even realize I had!

DevLeague teaches you to a fully self sufficient software developer
I live in Melbourne, and General Assembly is 5 minutes walk from my house. Yet I chose DevLeague. Here's why:
1. Instructor to Student Ratio
DevLeague has 2 full time teachers and 3 teaching assistants every day. My class had 8 students, so that's nearly a 1 : 2 teacher:student ratio.
2. Coverage of topics
DevLeague covers A LOT. It is a 6 day/week, 12 hours/day course. Topics included:
- Front end: HTML, CSS, Sass, ReactJS, AngularJS

2. Coverage of topics
DevLeague covers A LOT. It is a 6 day/week, 12 hours/day course. Topics included:
- Front end: HTML, CSS, Sass, ReactJS, AngularJS
- DOM
- JQuery and Bootstrap were deliberately not covered to teach us how stronger fundamentals, i.e. how to do things the "hard way". The idea is that you should only use outside frameworks where necessary and to understand their limitations.
- XMLHttpRequests (using APIs)
- Server side: net, http and Express
- Templating Engines: Jade, fs
- Databases: SQL, postgreSQL, sequelize ORM, noSQL, mongoDB, mongoose, server side architecture
- Authentication: Passport, Auth, OAuth
- Writing tests for your code: Mocha, Chai, SuperTest
- DevOps - like actual granular devops using command line on Digital Ocean, not just Heroku.
- Well taught Language skills and best practices: Functional programming, including array iterators, call, bind, apply, callbacks, promises
- Revealing module pattern and OOP
- Security and encryption, SHA512, bcrypt
3. Ongoing support:
- They actively email potential employers for you and help you review your CV.
- They have a wide network of former students who are available to help you
- It is still run by the owners of the business, not some multinational trying to churn students out at a profit
