Treehouse 14 Day Trial (Day 1)

I originally found out about Treehouse by watching the Foundation 14 episode with Ryan Carson. It sounded like a great idea but I wasn't ready to jump in just yet.



I have done some other online and classroom training and I wanted to see how Treehouse compares.

I started with the "Front End Development" track. This would be a good introduction to the site and let me practice my HTML, CSS and JavaScript.

So far I really like it. The sessions are quick and bite sized. You get a short video instruction, sometimes a quick quiz, and an opportunity to try out the code and submit it for correctness.

They also have a built in IDE called "Workspaces" that lets you save your work as you follow along. You can use this if you don't yet have a favorite IDE or text editor.

I'll try to check in each day and give an update and see how I like the service at the end of the 14 days.

Here is my referral code for 50% off your first month.
