This frustrates me every day. The CodeAcadamy approach is a good start—it gets people interested and involved very quickly—but it's not enough on its own. Basics of architecture and design absolutely need to be understood to be a good developer. At the very least they should emphasis the importance of software design and being mentored by more senior devs. As it is now, it seems many people leave those academy's thinking that they know everything they need to or that "coding" is actually what software development is all about. It's not. Coding is a tool of implementation. Design is our real job.
