Nobody is going to be teaching u anything. U learn by ur self. U will just be provide with what you need. Electricity, Internet, materials, food and people u can ask for help when u get stuck. But nobody is going to sit and teach u node or react. Start checking out different resources on Google and level up

what are the current stacks that's being used

Fgvfgg

DonPikko:
what are the current stacks that's being used

Its node/express for sever with postgresql for database for the backend. U might not be allowed to use a ORM and will be writing ur queries urself.

React/redux for front end, u might also not be allowed to use a css framework.

Json web token for authentication

Test is also required for both backend and front end with minimal of 80% coverage in both

DonPikko:
that's not negative vibe guy, my friend, a lawyer, got into andela this march, he as been learning programming for almost 16 months, when I made enquiries about the boot camp, he said its a very tough environment, you need to prepare extremely hard, and be able to able to meet deadlines, its not about praying hard or fasting, andela recruitment is very transparent, they don't take in mediocres, if you're not up to standard, I'll tell you to go and train more

I know that ur friend. Is name starts with an I

you're right, are you a fellow as well?

I av not been dere b4, but wth God + Hard/Smart work + Determination - no negative vibes from pple lyk u = my induction into andela

God guide me (Amen)

LOL he wasn't trying to be negative at all. You and Stephen's noisemaking is too much from the onset. There are other people that know way more than you RN on this forum, but don't necessarily need to be typing and posting all that you post.
Again, confidence is good, but overconfidence will weigh you down.
Just keep calm and know what you know, period! And he's right also, boot camp will humble you.

Ggh

*Sigh*! Y'all have not even started.

What bothers me is after all these noise making a Learning Facilitator Assistant at the bootcamp will just be seeing code smells and faulty logic in your code. Worse case scenario is when you can’t explain your code (that was how one guy was using async/await but can't explain the concept of asynchronous Javascript).

S/Overflow can easily save the day - why even reinvent the wheel - but every (i can't even emphasise this) character, code block, programming logic in your code must be understood and have a reason why they are the way they are.

Getting soiled in MDN docs is even better than doing much copy copy that cant help you with learning how to develop a problem solving skill..kapish?

See ehh you'd be required to learn concepts and strictly adhere to different standards while showing the EPIC values (no circumventing).

Its an exercise aims to help you learn and grow and what you gain out of it is a spot in the fellowship of extraordinary web artisans bridging the technology gap across the African landscape - a mouthful?.

All the "i can work under pressure" traits I thought I posses was clearly questionable as mr "hard-guy" was broken, burnt and borderline distraught.

You can easily talk yourself into the bootcamp during the interview but brotherly (or sisterly), the bootcamp is going require everything from your knowledge arsenal and also what you don't have.

At the end of the day as we live we must be humble and be open to learning if we want to grow.

Don't expect anyone to teach you how to code but they'd provide resources that would help you own your learning. Prepare to crash chrome with 100 tabs.

So save the noise making and reserve the energy for bootcamp because you'd need it like crazy.

Success is too proud to just fall on our thighs people, we can't cut corners, must be in our best behaviour and put in deliberate hours in.

Stay EPIC for andela sake or otherwise.

stephenkhalaf:
when i get to the bootcamp, i'll just do my best..and if i fail, i'll reapply for the next cycle...

you shouldn't enter boot camp with the mind set of failing

stephenkhalaf:
@guente02, when i did my interview, i asked the interviewer whether the bootcamp is hard or not... he said it is not hard and it's not simple...it depends on the kind of person you are...so you guys should stop referring to the bootcamp as one hell fire...what's hard to you, might be easy to another person.

Alright. I earnestly pray that you find it easy.
Take care.

stephenkhalaf:
@guente02, please, i don't like that "nose-making" word that you used, is it a sin to post code on "andela forum"...if i should come online and start talking abt my babe,cars or how i mess a girl yesterday, i guess that should be called "noise-making"

Sorry.
I should have been more careful with my choice of words. I'll go on and edit the post to be less attacking and more to the point.
My sincere apologies.

SoftDev:
Received!

Can u pls share d interview code challenge questions?

Thanks

DonPikko:

Failing is when you fall down and you don't use that as a growth and learning experience.

You people should stop wasting keystrokes. Let them go'an experience this thing first hand.

Them think say na joke
2 people were sent home and probably blacklisted from applying in the future cos they were caught using Git Repo of another bootcamper.

You might be the best programmer and not still make it into andela. EPIC!

Yes boss

Got a reject mail also.
Reached out to my LFA as why he he feels I'm not good for the next phase,he got back to me and i have since started working on it.
Just go on amd complete the project.

Hello, I just got into this thread and having read through a number of recent pages, it made me love Andela more and can't wait to get to the bootcamp stage where it seems to be the craziest. I'm not a very good programmer but I believe I'm comfortable in js and even if I don't make it, it will be a great opportunity to develop better.
