I tried Udemy, YouTube to learn programming but didn't work, Codedamn provides all tools to learn and Practice programing at same time.
Naah , just buy it to support them. I didn't anything special for paying and everything is already available on YouTube. The courses feel really shallow.
Useless. Tried a course and I have given up. No good. Also, these guys are scammers as hell. They don't pay affiliate commissions for months. A person who recommended me CodeDamn hasn't got her commission knocking on Codedamn door for months. They have gone bust. NO answers. No money. Useless courses. Scammers I would say.
Worth every penny. Great courses
Not worth it. The course is unstructured, with most sections being just a brain dump of concepts, without a flow to it. The topics are not linked and the instructor just teaches a bunch of random topics, leaving the students confused and with no solid understanding of the topic taught. it's quite clear that the instructor doesnt plan the lessons either, as he mentions that he doesnt know whats in the next lesson, and the topics are all over the place, with some concepts briefly popping up in later, unrelated lesons.
I had to google the topics and relearn them properly on youtube. I would get a refund if i could. Seriously, even their free tutorials on youtube are better.
In summary, three main problems:
1. Lessons and content are not structured, with no flow between them. The instructor basically just teaches whatever comes to his mind, leaving out many important concepts, and teaching random cool tricks here and thre instead.
2. The teaching style is erratic. The instructor often shows a feature or concept that is way too advanced, and says :" Bear with me, I'll get to it". In the end, the instructor doesnt explain why bringing up this advanced concept is needed at all and it is very confusing.
3. Poor quality of information. Alot of the lessons are messy and buggy, i.e. CSS lessons appearing in HTML lessons. The quality of teaching as well, is poor and is mostly a braindump of concepts, some of which are not that important, whilst important concepts and skipped. I.e. CSS animations is only 15 mins long IN TOTAL, while the instructor spends much more time rambling about some niche feature or function in other topics.
TL;DR: Just get scrimba instead or smth, even their free tutorials on youtube are better than the paid content.
Tip: If you've already wasted your money on codedamn, i'd suggest to just follow the content flow and the modules, and google the topics and concepts and just learn from youtube.

Hi. This review was extremely dishearting to read, given the amount of work we pour into tech and education. Let me answer **every** single one of your (wrong) things, and acknowledge the right ones.
> The course is unstructured, with most sections being just a brain dump of concepts, without a flow to it
Wrong. All courses of every learning path are vetted by us and are structured. They form continuous learning, i.e. no breaks from the previous course. If you have found a specific course that is "brain dump" of concepts, please mention it - instead of putting out a general statement.
> The topics are not linked and the instructor just teaches a bunch of random topics, leaving the students confused and with no solid understanding of the topic taught
If you're talking about frontend/full-stack learning path, I take most of the courses there and respectfully, I have been in the industry for over 10 years working as a developer. I again, invite you to put a proof to your word - mention specific courses/videos/course items and I'll fix them.
> I would get a refund if i could.
If you could? We would refund you in the first place if you had such a terrible experience with codedamn, even outside of our 14-day full-refund, no questions asked window. Please don't misinform people.
> CSS animations is only 15 mins long IN TOTAL
True. And it is okay. If you want to learn CSS animations in-depth, you can learn from somewhere else. But as an instructor of the frontend learning path, I see absolutely no use in making students learn CSS animations when they should be focusing more on layouts, media queries and other things where CSS is used 99% of the time in companies/startups.

Please take refund. We can't fix things you don't tell us. And please take a refund from me, personally (mehul@codedamn.com). I would not want anyone in our business to use 1 rupee from your amount.
Looking at your account, which was only created on July 11th 2022 to write this review, this very well might be a hater account/hate review/paid review. I would have really appreciated any constructed feedback but this is plain rant and a completely wrong picture. Do better.
