Last updated July 2024

Course Description
How do you start a career in coding? By building confidence.
You can do it; you're more than intelligent enough. Coding is actually an emotional challenge, not an intellectual one.
How will you stay motivated? Let me take you under my wing through a 20 hour journey of projects, practice and patience; encouraging you along the way.
While there's no substitute for the 10,000 hours to truly master a subject, you don't need a 500 hour bootcamp before trying to get your first job in the industry. You just need a guided path with a trusted advisor who can build your confidence.
This course may be brand new, but this isn’t my first time teaching. I’ve led training sessions for Fortune 500 companies and I’ve already helped over 240,000 people on Udemy and received the following feedback:
"Brad definitely has some of the best techniques to embed the lesson into your mind… hands down these are the best tutorials I have had the opportunity to view."
"Presentation is concise without being tedious… you honestly feel that you have a thorough understanding of the subject."
"…[Brad] explained the process. Not memorize this or that, he explained the process. If you're looking to take a course to understand the foundations of creating websites, look no further."
Become highly valuable and relevant to the companies that are hiring web developers; in one convenient place alongside one instructor. If you're ready to begin coding your own web sites from the ground up - I'll see you on the inside!

Hi, I'm Brad and I’ve taught web development to countless coworkers and held training sessions for fortune 100 companies.
I also teach local night classes and run a somewhat popular YouTube channel named LearnWebCode.
I’m a front-end developer, designer, and educator. I’ve been building user interfaces for over a decade for the world's largest brands, international technology leaders, and national political campaigns.
I'm fortunate to enjoy the development work I do, but my true passion is helping people learn.

Brad knows his shit! Not only does he explain the 'How ' but the " Why" in coding. Course is beginner friendly and advance knowing. Explains everything in this course in an easy to understand style. I'm very happy with this course and have many of Brad's courses. Was not thinking of learning some of the programs he teaches here but now I happy to say I know some react, node JS, MongoDB and more. Keep up the good work Brad and I look forward to New courses from you in the future.

I didn't come to this as a beginner programmer. I feel like I would have gotten lost if this was my first intro to programming as a concept, but as far as a person with basic programming skills learning web development, this was an extensive and well-explained course that somehow managed to not be overwhelming. I was able to retain the information pretty effectively, and I definitely feel empowered to implement everything I learned through the course.

I'm super happy with the array of current technologies that Brad introduces. Building the same small website (and adding features) using different approaches/frameworks/platforms really helped me understand the pros and cons, and which technologies are suitable for different use cases. If you are a beginner in coding, you'll need to do a lot of independent study of JavaScript to understand what you're typing. Brad shows all the steps, but doesn't go into extremely detailed explanations. This course is a great fast-moving way to build a real website with useful features and decide which tools and technologies you want to focus on next.

i needed to review again my css. and i was surprised with all the gotchas that he taught along the way. those were all problems that anyone would run into but would forget or would not remember how to fix. eg. inline-elements not respecting paddings, h1 and p tags in the hero section must wrap at a certain width. things like that. i love things like this that are taught out of experience. not some boring unapplied academic-fication of learning read by some school professor with powerpoint

Except that 13th chapter, everything looks flawless while coding along. Final part did not work as intended and I wonder why it is here after all. Search interface is somehow buggy and needs a fix with "#default-message" id, but to be frank I do not believe somebody could teach something out of this course. Intermediate skills required for the main part, and novice for the final chapter. I think ppl could miss further explanation of class and id. Like the git, node and mongoDB part though.

Step by step full explanation and every detail explained. Course appropriately titled Become a Web Developer. If you have familiarities with html, css, javascript and node js, this course will ensure your success as a Professional web developer provided you work through it. Highly recommended not just for beginners but for programmers in other languages.

This udemy course is a guiding light in the maze of web development. It caters to beginners and seasoned developers alike, offering a meticulously crafted journey from basics to advanced concepts. With up-to-date content reflecting 2024's trends and technologies, it's a gem for mastering web development. Thanks a lot Brad for this amazing journey, you made me earn my confidence back to return in coding things.

I definitely recommend the course and one of my favourite instructors. Brad is a well-informed, well-spoken, experienced, agreeable GUIDE. I like the way he has gone about delivering the course. In one of his 'calls' he mentions the amount of hours we have to spend programming, which is some 10,000 hours. If you do the math it is about 417 days. If it were your job, meaning working for 8 hour a day, it would be 1,251 days, which means about 3 and a half years. But for someone like me/us the number is a way larger! But the important thing, and Brad speaks about it, is to be stubborn, to be CONSISTENT ... just do what you enjoy and do not despair. I have been doing it for years now (in my spare time) and I have finally reached the point where I feel I know something.

What an amazing ride! From Figma design to real web application hosted on the web. This was not my first exposure to the technologies, but using them in this course helped reinforce my comfort level. There were several "Ah ha" moments as I followed Brad throughout this incredible coding journey.

Brad Schiff has the best web development courses on the planet. Excellent teaching, practical, interesting and replicable projects. Brad explains the why of things, without rushing, and keeps the courses up to date. There is no reason to search for videos on the internet when you have a clear and organized learning flow for this price. For those who don't have English as their first language, he uses standard vocabulary that is very easy to understand. For those just starting out, this might be the first course. Thank you for your time and dedication Brad.
