[–] zachgalant 13y ago ↗ Hey Randy,If your brother wants to get a good foundation in problem solving and some JS fundamentals, he should check out http://codehs.comI'm making it to be a really fun, accessible entry point to learning how to code. We have a bunch of different modules that stress different concepts.If he's already started learning, he might find some stuff a bit basic, but it quickly gets much more challenging.Let me know if he gets a chance to check it out and what he thinks.Zach [–] randylubin 13y ago ↗ Nice! I like the game-centric approach; it's what I loved about 106a.I'll definitely pass it along to my brother. [–] zachgalant 13y ago ↗ Awesome! My cofounder and I were actually TAs for that class for the last 3 years before making CodeHS, so a lot of what we've done is inspired by the 106 classes.

I'm making it to be a really fun, accessible entry point to learning how to code. We have a bunch of different modules that stress different concepts.
If he's already started learning, he might find some stuff a bit basic, but it quickly gets much more challenging.
Let me know if he gets a chance to check it out and what he thinks.

I'll definitely pass it along to my brother.
