Beautiful write-up, but I will say even bootcamps are not required. I quit my CS degree plan at 36, without even making it beyond college prerequisites. I knew what I wanted to do a decade ago. It is so simple to learn on your own with all that is online. I have been a developer for years and all I have is my GED. It is about passion and love for creating things that make people's lives easier.

Batteries not included, CS degree and boot camp not required.

Btw, coding is psychology...which anyone can learn that as well on their own.
