Meet your teachers

The Frontend Developer Career Path combines the best talent in each domain. For every single subject we handpick tutors to craft your curriculum.

Gary Simon will teach you UI design, Kevin Powell gets you started with CSS, and Bob Ziroll and Cassidy Williams will be your React instructors.

Why this course rocks

This career path will turn you into a hireable frontend developer as fast as possible. By the end of it, you will have learned enough HTML, CSS, JavaScript, and React to get your first job as a frontend web developer.

It will also prepare you with strategies to get through the interview process, so that you increase the chance of landing your dream job.

The teachers of this path are some of the most popular online instructors these days, like Kevin Powell, Gary Simon, Cassidy Williams, and Dylan Israel. They’re all people who have gone up the hard road of becoming professional developers, so they know exactly what it takes.

Throughout the path, you’ll build more than a dozen projects, and solve more than 100 interactive coding challenges. In total, it clocks more than 70 hours. It’s fully self-paced, and you can choose whether you’d like to do it part-time or full-time.

F to the A oracle to the Q
What topics are covered in the Career Path?

The Career Path aims to teach you everything you need to know to be hired as a Frontend developer. That includes HTML, CSS, JavaScript, React, UI Design, career advice and more! Check out the syllabus above to see everything the Career Path has to offer.

Do I have to study full-time?

The Career Path, and indeed all Scrimba courses, is completely self-paced, so you can study full-time or part-time, alongside your other commitments. That said, we recommend that you study as often as possible to give yourself the best chance of progressing. Every day is great, if you can manage it.

Where can I go for help?

At Scrimba, we believe that learning to code should be a community activity, which is why we've set up our Discord server - a place where you can meet fellow coders, share your code problems and solutions, and network. Just go to this link: https://discord.gg/hjuEbDE to sign up.

Do I have to study the Career Path in the given order?

Although we have set up the Career Path to allow you to go from zero knowledge to hireable developer, you don’t have to follow the course in order we have given. You might choose to skip ahead to modules you need to know about more urgently, or go back and redo parts from time to time. It’s your Career Path, so you can study however you like.

I already know the content of a module, can I skip it?

You are free to skip modules that you already know, however we recommend that you try to complete all the challenges to test your knowledge before doing so. Please note that the certificate can only be issued when all the screencasts have been watched.

What do I get when I complete the Career Path?

When you complete the Career Path, you will automatically unlock the Frontend Developer Career Path certificate. You are also eligible for the ‘Career Path Graduate’ Discord badge. Just send a message to one of the team on Discord or email [email protected] to claim this.

Will the content of the Career Path be updated?

Yes, we are always open to feedback and constantly looking for ways to improve our courses. If you have any comments, please reach out to us on Discord or email [email protected]

I completed the course and unlocked my certificate, but the Career Path has since been updated and my progress is no longer 100%.

If you have already completed the Career Path, we can fix up your progress so it shows 100% again. Just email [email protected]

I have a question which isn’t covered here.

Just drop us a message on our Discord server (https://discord.gg/hjuEbDE) or email us at [email protected] We’d be happy to help.
