But is it really a good tool for a developer who is learning? That's debatable
For absolute beginners, I don't think so but for students with intermediate skills about coding it very helpful.IMO
I rarely used it and I would need some good reasons to pay for it now.
What about private schools (courses)?
if private schools offers student card or email it can work but if not i don't think so.
Intresting tool for the beginners.
Nice workaround!
thank you
