The hardest part of my experience with a coding Bootcamp has been after it ended. I just finished my coursework with the Flatiron Bootcamp for Software Engineering and I can honestly say this has been the hardest, yet most rewarding, thing I've done. It was a roller-coaster, going from very basic knowledge of what code even was to building 5 projects in the span of 6 months. That should say it all.
I built projects in the CLI, with Ruby/Sinatra, Ruby on Rails, JavaScript, and React-Redux respectively. But during the time we had some sort of structure and schedule to do these, now it's up to us to figure out what we should do and it has been a challenge. Thankfully, Flatiron even provides a Post-Work section to help us with the transition.
I have decided to improve my past work during my ongoing job search and write weekly updates on this blog as a journal. Hopefully, this can help others going through similar situations and for a way for me to look back at my progress.
