Thanks for writing this, Jeff! It can all too common to encounter "gatekeeping" in the software community when some give impression that the only "right" way to get into development is by traditional career paths. Bootcamps can be fantastic ways to learn without having to worry if the content is outdated (and many more great reasons), and so I'm glad to read your experience.
I wish you the best of luck as you continue onward, and hope to see more posts from you!
