Enter by Bootcamp
summary
Dev Bootcamp runs an 18–19 week program with 9 weeks remote + 9 weeks on-campus, teaching command line, Git/GitHub, HTML/CSS, Ruby, Rails, JavaScript (React on some campuses), ActiveRecord/SQL, Sinatra, AJAX, pair programming, code reviews and Capybara tests. Cohorts spend 60–80 hours in-class and build a final Rails app as a capstone. Triplebyte finds bootcamp grads match CS grads on algorithms but lag in low-level system design. Graduates report hiring bias despite practical, project-driven fluency.
