Not free. Paid. Expensive.

This course was very misleading about it's paid content. The course is listed as free, and mentions a membership if you want to continue with solo projects using their assisted platform. However, after a few lessons, you are locked out completely unless you pay a very large membership fee! I have nothing against a paid course that is well maintained, but if your course requires payment, do not list it as free... Even saying "free trial" would have been less misleading. Disgusting...

Very useful and complete

Scrima is my favourite learning platform, you have so many courses and the most important thing is that you practise a lot with exercises and projects. They are not just theory. Just try it and you won´t leave it.

Best platform to learn how to code

If you're looking to learn how to code don't look don't look at any other course just! Scrimba is all you needWhat I enjoy the most about the course is you get a lot of practice coding and there's a very active community if you need help. I'm 40% through the full stack course and will finish it soon insha Allah

Cool place to learn code !

Scrimba is a unique platform that allows you to learn coding hands-on alongside the teacher on the same screen. I believe this is one of the best features I've ever encountered on any website! It's a super awesome investment.

What I really love about this platform…

What I really love about this platform is how the AI reviews your solutions and gives back feedback on how to make the code better.

Very hands-on and builds muscle memory

I love how hands-on the courses are. They give exercise challenges after almost every video. If you’re a visual learner like me, this one is for you. They visually explain everything on screen step by step. You’ll also get lots of practice, and it helps build that muscle memory.

Best place to learn web dev online!

I wanted to learn to code, but I couldn't find a good platform, but then I found Scrimba. Scrimba is by far the best platform I've ever used (and subscribed to). Scrimba is super interactive, super smooth, the teachers are great, the content is great, the platform itself is super fun and interesting to interact with (I spend 20% of my time hovering over a button to see that cool animation). Overall, my experience was great, 100% reccomended!!!

The Front End Courses are exceptional…

The Front End Courses are exceptional but Backend and AI courses have been rushed without taking into consideration practice beyond the Scrimba Environment. Backend coding has been rushed and Javascript is the only language majorly promoted

Updated: A good course, just not for me

Update:Have successfully been refunded. The course is good just not for me. Thank you for the service.Old review:Feeling very disheartened about being charged an extortionate sum randomly. Scrimba hasnt contacted once and I havent used their service for a whole year.

Obscure Subscription Charges

Update: Scrimba refunded the accidental renewal and made a slight update to their FAQ adding a reference to costumer support in addition to the description of their policy on renewals (that they are not refunded,by default at least).I bought a year-long subscription for Scrimba last year. It was ok, bit it didn't meet my expectations. Without warning or contact, Scrimba withdrew money for another FULL YEAR of subscription that I do not need nor was aware that I had signed up for. They refuse to refund it even though I attempted to reach out within hours of the transaction appearing on my account. I cannot afford it :(The company feels more like a money-grabbing scam than anything else. Be very careful!

Good for beginner <3

I have tried other coding platforms, free and paid. Some are too hand holding, telling you every single step without showing the picture, and often time I forgot what's I am even doing. Some are too difficult for beginner, as I just code without knowing if I am doing it right or not.Scrimba is not perfect, but it is the best platform right now for me who needs to fall in love with coding again, while also learn good coding practice. The instructors are really enthusiastic and it's so much fun than just reading lecture note. Also, they show you what projects you are going to make. I like when they show me the final design, and I will try to make my website look like that. Which are similar to receive Figma design from UX designer in my work. Okay, now as you become more advanced, coding with their in-browser IDE is not ideal. But for beginner, or people who just want to try coding for fun, it's great to get a sense of coding. Besides, you are not forced to use their IDE. You can just code along. :D

Excellent Platform

Excellent PlatformWhat a excellent platform. Nothing is skipped. The courses are perfectly designed and knowledge builds on top of each other.Really love the exercises and the in-browser IDE, which makes it really easy to just get started.By being an in-browser IDE, it allows for flexibility and quick starts, which is less friction to actually go through the course.Excellent job!

I must say that it is one of the best…

I must say that it is one of the best educational platforms I have ever encountered. I love how they repeat concepts and apply space repetition. I hope they will maintain this high quality of work, because that's what will set them apart in the market. Great job, Scrimba!

Great Editor, Tough on the Wallet

Scrimba has a really cool in-browser code editor that makes learning fun, but the yearly price feels a bit high. You can find similar courses elsewhere for a one-time purchase at a much lower cost. And honestly, you can get the same practice by coding on your own laptop with free tools like VS Code.
