University of Michigan full front end development course (11 hours)
- rmason 4y agoPretty rare link for HN but there's a reason. I get asked locally all the time when people find out I'm a developer that they want to learn how to build web pages. Pains me to say as a Spartan but I listened to a bit of it and the professor is quite good. Two friends have taught broadly this same course at Michigan State, they're both super enthusiastic and I'm sure they're great instructors as well but their work isn't on the web. Most people want instant success and won't invest in the full 11 hours. But if they do they will have gained a useful skill. So if anyone asks you've got the link ;<).

- rmason 4y agoUnderstand, but not everyone who wants to learn to build web pages plans on it for a career. Maybe they've got a hobby site or a volunteer group at a school. Course some self taught graduate to full time but not all.
