Elevate Your Coding Skills with Hands-On Projects 🚀

Project-Based Learning at Its Best!

Project-based learning is the most effective type of learning, especially when it comes to coding. Whether you're aiming to break into the field of web development or just looking to prototype your Million Dollar Idea (MVP), our approach ensures that you learn by doing. You'll dive into building working applications, understanding the concepts first before focusing on the details.

With this course, you won't just sit through endless lectures; instead, you'll make rapid progress on engaging projects. This method not only keeps you motivated but also helps you master in-demand tech skills by practicing and solving real problems, rather than memorizing concepts by rote.

What You'll Build:

🍔 Restaurant Review Site: Create a platform where users can browse, rate, and leave reviews for local eateries. Admins can add new restaurant listings, and users can search through the index to find their favorite spots.

💸 Two-Sided Marketplace: Develop a marketplace application that allows sellers to upload listings with images, manage inventory, and process payments through Stripe API. You'll learn how to handle transactions and transfer funds to your sellers, taking a percentage as earnings.

🛠️ Web Scraper: Access HTML data from websites like Wikipedia and Airbnb, parse the information, and export it into a database using Ruby. This will teach you how to work with web data on a deeper level.

🏘️ Apartment Rental Site (like Craigslist): Build a custom Ruby on Rails app that gathers data through an API, processes it, and presents a user-friendly interface for interacting with the rental listings. You'll also learn to automate the data collection process, ensuring your app stays up-to-date with minimal effort.

Bonus Feature Videos:
