I really love this course.” – Ekeu MonkamUlrich

“Angela is very thorough without ever being boring. I’ve taken MANY online courses in my life including my Bachelors and Masters degrees. She is by far the best instructor I’ve ever had. This course is packed with thousands of dollars worth of great instruction, and paced well enough for anyone to pick coding up and run with it- Thank you!” – J Carlucci

“I have already learned more in this class than in a $12,000 coding BootCamp (…). Before taking one of the Bootcamp on Udemy, you should take this class first” – Robert

Do you want to learn the fundamentals of modern web development fast?

Do you want to find out if building websites and apps is the right career path for you?

Or maybe you just want to know what your web developer friends do all day?

In any of these cases…

Welcome to my “Web Development Crash Course”! Together, we will build a fun, small, but full-stack web application in just a few days.

But why this course? And why is it so short?

Well, there are so many 60 and 80-hour-long “complete” web development courses out there, which are great if you want to invest 3 months of your life into finding out if web dev is even right for you or not…

I wanted to offer a different approach. A short and fast crash course, where you can dip your toes into the world of HTML, CSS, JavaScript, and even React (the most used JavaScript library in the world).

You can finish it in a weekend (if you have nothing else planned), or you can take a week. But the point is that you can learn the very fundamentals of web development quite fast, and in an engaging, 99% project-based way.

And even though this is called a “crash course”, this course teaches you more in 12 hours than I learned in my first 2 years as a web developer!

That’s how condensed, and how valuable, the material is. And the course still maintains the high-quality standard of all my other courses, so that you actually understand what you are learning!

But you might be thinking: “Is a crash course really right for me?”

Well, it all depends on your goals.

Sure, you will not become a web developer after this short course, and you will not be able to build big web projects (but sometimes that’s true even for those huge 80-hour courses).

But, at the end of this course, you will have learned and understood the fundamentals of the most important web technologies (HTML, CSS, JavaScript, React). And even more importantly, you will have discovered if you actually like web development and want to pursue it as a (lucrative) career!

Plus, you will walk away from this course with a super cool web application that you can show to all your friends (please tell them I sent you 😉

All this will enable you to go deeper into the topics that you actually liked, and keep learning and progressing on your own if you like (or of course, you can purchase more specialized courses).

So, have you never written a single line of code in your life?

You have come to the right place! We will start slowly, step-by-step, and then speed up the pace as we progress through the course.

So here’s what we’re gonna do in this course:

  • We will set up your code editor and coding environment together (all for free!)

  • I will guide you through the basics of the web and web development

  • Then we slowly start our project, by writing the HTML code (for the page content)

  • We then style the page and create a layout using CSS

  • Next we create an online database and API for our application data, using a free service called Supabase

  • To get the data into the application and make it interactive, we learn the fundamentals of JavaScript

  • Writing apps with only JavaScript can be difficult, so we build the app using the React library

  • Finally, we deploy the final project to a free service called Netlify

  • DONE! You can now share the URL of your project with everyone 🙂

Already know HTML, CSS, or JavaScript?

No problem! You can still get something from the course. For example, you can watch only the section on “React” and use the downloadable code from the previous section as your starting point.

If all this sounds great, then join me on this adventure right now! See you on the inside 🙂

Join the most comprehensive web development bootcamp on Udemy!

This course teaches you web development and turns you into a web developer in 100 days – or allow you to refresh key essentials and expand your existing knowledge!

Becoming a web developer is a great choice because web development opens up many career paths and web development skills are required in pretty much every business that exists today – and of course this demand will increase in the future!

It’s not just about websites – it’s also about “behind the scenes” services used by mobile apps like Uber or AirBnB. It’s about rich web apps like Google Docs as well as browser games. And of course also about regular websites like Facebook, online blogs, online shops like Amazon and much, much more!

Hence it’s no wonder, that web developers are in high demand! And, besides great job perspectives, as a web developer, you can of course also easily build your own digital business!

This Course Is For You!

This course will teach you web development from the ground up and thanks to the “100 Days Of Code Challenge” which is incorporated into this course (though it’s optional to commit to it!), you can become a web developer in 100 days with help of this course!

No prior web development knowledge is required at all to get started with this course. We will explore all important basics, all fundamentals and all key concepts together, step by step.

But this course is also for advanced students who already do have web development knowledge! It’s a deep-dive course and hence you will be able to expand your existing knowledge by diving deeper into key fundamentals like HTML, CSS or NodeJS and also by exploring advanced concepts like handling payments, building REST APIs or website security.

Since it’s a huge course, the course is built in a modular way. This means, that you can take it step by step, lecture by lecture but you can also jump right into the course sections that are most interesting to you. Of course, we recommend the “step-by-step” approach for beginners – simply because all the lectures and sections build up on each other. But as a more experienced developer, you can of course skip basics that aren’t interesting to you!

The 100 Days Of Code Challenge

We built this course with the “100 Days Of Code Challenge” in mind – a challenge (not invented by us) that aims to keep you motivated to code for at least 1 hour per day for 100 days.

Since this is a huge course (with around 80 hours of content!) it can be very overwhelming. And we know that many students never finish a course.

That’s a pitty, because this course is packed with content, exercises, quizzes, assignments and demo projects! We build a browser-game, a blog, a travel website, an online shop and much, much more.

Therefore, we provide clear guidance on how you can take this course from A to Z within 100 days by spending 1 to 2 hours per day watching videos and learning. As part of the course, you get access to a companion website that provides a clear structure and you also find annotations right in the course curriculum.

Of course taking this “100 Days” challenge is totally optional though! You can take the course at your own pace as well and skip any content you’re not interested in!

Try It Risk-Free

This course comes with a 30 day money-back guarantee. If you find out that it’s not for you, you can get your money back, no questions asked!

What You Will Learn

This is a huge course, packed with content and it’s the web development bootcamp we would have loved to have when we learned web development.

Here’s a summary of the key concepts we’ll explore as part of this course:

  • How the web works

  • Core technologies: HTML, CSS & JavaScript

  • Understand how HTML documents are structured and how HTML elements are used correctly

  • Learn core CSS concepts like the box model, flexbox, positioning, units and much more

  • Explore advanced CSS concepts like building responsive websites, layouts, custom CSS properties, CSS grid & more

  • Learn browser-side JavaScript from the ground up

  • Understand what the “DOM” is and how you can manipulate it via JavaScript

  • Explore browser / user events and how to handle them with JavaScript

  • Build tons of projects (e.g. a Tic-Tac-Toe browser game) to practice and fully understand all these technologies

  • Dive into backend development with NodeJS & ExpressJS

  • Learn what NodeJS is and how it works

  • Build basic backend-driven websites with advanced concepts like dynamic routing or dynamic templates

  • Learn how to work with databases – SQL & NoSQL (and what that is)

  • Practice how to use SQL / NoSQL with NodeJS & Express

  • Dive into advanced concepts like authentication, website security, coding patterns, file uploads, user input validation and so much more!

  • Again: Build plenty of projects (e.g. a complete online shop, from the ground up!) to practice all advanced concepts as well

  • Learn how to use third-party packages and services (e.g. Stripe for payments) in your websites

  • Move on to more specialized, advanced concepts like building REST APIs

  • Explore frontend JavaScript frameworks like Vue.js to build even more powerful web user interfaces

  • And so much more – simply check out the full curriculum to get a complete list!

This full stack web development bootcamp sets a NEW STANDARD in online courses.

Here are 5 big reasons why:

1.  This full stack web development bootcamp is and always will be 100% up-to-date. The biggest problem facing people who are looking for quality online courses is that it can be difficult to find one that’s actually up-to-date. This can be quite demotivating and annoying, especially for beginners. But our students can be sure that this course is always up-to-date, because we meticulously re-record our lessons to reflect the latest in web development.

2. You will not find explanations of programming concepts so easy to understand in any other course on the Internet. We spend an enormous amount of time looking for the best way to explain complex concepts using simple terms, animations, illustrations, graphs, etc. Our method is always structured to begin by demonstrating theory on well-planned and animated slides before showing the theory in practice.

3. By studying with us, you will be taught by professional online and offline bootcamp instructors. What’s more, you will feel as if you are being taught one-on-one by a private instructor. Most people don’t have $10,000-$20,000 to spend on a coding bootcamp. But, fortunately, there is no need to. This full stack web developer course was developed by a team of professional online and offline bootcamp instructors.

4. You can be 100% sure that every question you submit will be answered to your satisfaction by our instructors! Another all too common gripe about many online courses is that the instructors don’t respond to questions raised by their students in the Q&A section. However, You will never be alone because we understand how important it is to help beginners on their way to becoming web developers and getting their first job.

5. You will be taught how to build major projects as though you are already working as a freelancer or as a web developer in an IT company. In this course you will learn how to build – from scratch – real, complex projects that can be added to your portfolio with pride. All projects teach you how to think like and develop the necessary skills of … A Programmer!

Your success is PRIORITY #1 to us!

From Udemy reviews:

“Absolute quality. I am learning these topics as a complete beginner, having/wanting/needing to change industries because of this pandemic. I knew I would want several resources so purchased multiple bootcamps to learn from. This one is of the absolute best! Not only the material is current, it is presented in an incredibly descriptive manner with plenty of visuals and instruction. I highly recommend this to anyone starting out in this field or coming back to learn the basics. Kudos.” – Stephanie Quintana

“… I’ve used all the “big names” in online courses, and this is the most comprehensive course I’ve taken. On other learning platforms, oftentimes you’re only coding a portion of the site and I think you miss the “big picture”. In this course, you build the projects completely from the ground up. And the instructors are incredibly responsive to all questions. Give these guys your money, they deserve it!” – Andrew S.

“I did a lot of research until I ultimately decided on this course, and I’m very happy with the choice I made. I really love the way in which the lessons are taught by both demonstrating and allowing you to practice along. Any and all questions asked are answered in-depth and timeously, which I truly appreciate” – Ryan Griffiths

— WE GUARANTEE THAT —

We have 10+ years’ experience in software development and 6+ years’ experience conducting highly-effective web development bootcamps. Our students become web developers from scratch in the shortest possible time thanks to our unique teaching method.

“The instructor has a talent for knowing what questions you have … and makes the right thing clear at the right time. This is the mark of a great teacher. “– Bob Douglas, USA

Reason #2: This course sets a NEW STANDARD in online education

We spend lots of time developing strict methodology and premium, animated slides. Our teaching method completely distinguishes our courses from all others on the Internet.

Whereas other instructors explain theory by coding-and-coding on a black screen, our teaching method flows like a well-illustrated book. First, all theory is explained through visuals and animations, showing you exactly what the code is actually doing. And then, when you have already gotten the concept, it is shown in practice.

“Each video starts with awesome animation which explains the concept and …then reinforced with practical examples. You guys totally understand how a student thinks and you guys know how to teach, which is very rare and a God-gifted quality.” – Vivek, India

Reason #3: Throughout this bootcamp you will never be alone

We know how important it is to get timely and detailed answers from the instructor when you are learning web development. That’s why we are always ready to answer your questions. The success of our students is PRIORITY #1.

“Highly recommended! Straight to the point tutorials and concise, they always let you know what’s best practice and what the smartest approach is. Big plus that they always answer questions as soon as they can! Their answers are always so detailed too, they take time to make sure they explain the answers well” – Kai W

Reason #4: All lessons are constantly updated

With this course you can be 100% sure that your video lectures are always up-to-date.  Many other courses contain lots of outdated information because web development is rapidly changing. Our bootcamp, however, is constantly updated to reflect the latest standards and changes in web development.

Reason #5: The course is completely project-based

It’s packed with 9 major real-world projects, in contrast to other courses that have projects that look nice to beginners but aren’t real-world projects. And our projects are a perfect addition to your CV to impress your future employer.

“Love this course! It feels that a great amount of effort has been put into this course, the teaching method is great as well as the slides and the projects. I have started it knowing only a little of basics, but now I feel that I have a whole picture of how it all works. Thank you, Vertex Academy, I’ve learned a lot and special thanks for quick and friendly replies to questions, you’re the best” – Rena

Methodology: How We Determine Course Relevance

At ClassRanker, we aim to help users find the most relevant and high-quality courses quickly. To achieve this, we use a relevance-based ranking system inspired by the Bayesian Average method, which takes into account both course ratings and the number of reviews. This ensures that courses with a good mix of high ratings and solid review counts are ranked higher, while newer courses or those with fewer reviews are still given a fair chance.


Relevance-Based Sorting

Courses on ClassRanker are by default sorted by relevance, which takes into account:

  • Course Rating: The average rating of each course (on a scale of 1 to 5).
  • Review Count: The number of reviews the course has received.

We calculate the relevance of each course by balancing its rating with the number of reviews it has. Courses with higher ratings and more reviews naturally rank higher. However, we also ensure that courses with fewer reviews are not unfairly ranked just because of their high score.


Dynamic Baseline Values

The ranking system is driven by dynamic values that are recalculated regularly:

  • Baseline Rating: The average rating of all courses in the database. This helps normalize the rankings.
  • Baseline Review Count: The average number of reviews across all courses, which helps balance the weight between courses with many reviews and those with fewer reviews.

This approach ensures that as the database grows, the rankings remain fair and reflect the overall course quality and popularity.


Why This Matters

By sorting courses based on relevance, we ensure that the most useful, well-reviewed courses are prioritized, making it easier for you to discover the best content available. Our system is transparent and adapts over time, so new courses and ratings are always taken into account.


This methodology helps ClassRanker deliver relevant, high-quality course recommendations to meet your learning needs.
