BECOME A CONFIDENT DEVELOPER IN 10 HOURS
"Working with Ilya has been a game-changer for me. My ability to think critically and solve problems has improved dramatically. The sessions have really helped me understand code on a deeper level and it broke the horrible cycle of memorizing code snippets from tutorials.
Ilya doesn't use a cookie-cutter formula like other programs, it’s not a one-size-fits-all boot camp. The coaching is tailored specifically to you and your goals, challenging you in ways that really make a difference. Ilya's coaching evolves as with you, as it should!
Ilya Dorman, truly gets that everyone learns differently. His support and encouragement have been key in helping me reach my goals. If you’re looking for personalized coaching that pushes you to grow, I cannot recommend him enough." -- Gabriel Barrett

I started using JavaScript around the time when jQuery was all the rage. some years later Angular came out and change some paradigms, and then React. I love simple solutions to complex problems, and I have a very product-oriented approach: what is the simplest way to achieve the business goal of a certain product.
Here are a few thought about my approach: https://medium.com/@ilyothehorrid/writing-code-for-humans-5b80a89f439c

I have worked with React for 3 years and recently have discovered the wonders of a strongluy-typed language. Saving a lot of hassle and bug-chasing in complex projects.

My experindce comes from building end-to-end apps by myself, using serverless services like AWS amplify, and from work in big teams on complex performance heavy React projects. I like working with React since it like an app lego, to move things around with ease.

I've built multiple full-stack apps using Next.js. I love this framework for its flexibility in the ways you can use React.

This was my first session as a Mentee.
Despite me not being fully set up at the start of the meeting and also having a slow laptop, Ilya was very patient with me and tried to get to the point quickly. I liked his focused approach to my un-optimised problems, he was great to talk solutions through with and was always looking for the bigger picture of my problem.

Ilya had great feedback for how to approach a web app creation project I am working on. Thanks for the help!

Really good with helping me, guided me through my journey as a coder, and helped me find the answers on my own instead of trying to feed them to me, which really helped me grow my knowledge as a aspiring coder

He showed me confidence in his job. My problem was a little bit complicated so he wasn't able to help me out, but maybe having him as a freelancer could help me.

How to Think Like a Programmer?
To become a programmer you need to think like one, and contrary to the popular belief, this requires practice rather than knowledge or some mental predisposition.

Code Bootcamps are a Costly Scam
Bootcamps promise to make you a programmer, yet they merely help you memorize code, and even that, under pressure and inadequate expectations.

This is an app that allow you to bet on your ability to accomplish a task that you have been otherwise avoiding.
It is very simple: you choose a task and pay some money.
If you complete the task within a chosen amount of time, you get the money back. If not, you lose it for good.
