Speaking as one of the co-founders of Dev Bootcamp, they take a very different curricular and pedagogical approach than this course. The emphasis is 100% on fundamentals and Rails is used only as a means to that end. Curricularly, Rails isn't touched on until week 7 or so.
This seems like a fine thing for someone who just wants to learn to sling together an app and learn some of the "Rails incantations." If they're self-directed, maybe they'll dive deeper. DBC eschews that -- one of the first things they try to unteach students is that programming is about memorizing a bunch of magic spells.
