The concept is good especially for those wanting to switch careers or trying to learn to code, but for those who already have tight schedules it seems very unrealistic. But for those who managed to do so good job!

I started #100DaysOfCode when I was at a point that I felt stuck in my career. I always wanted to grow my skillset and build things that interested me but I had been stuck doing freelance busywork for too long and got bored.

I needed to make it into a habit, so once I heard about #100DaysOfCode, I was hooked, because it's a very clearly defined way to progress (1 hour of coding a day) with a big community behind it already. I'm very much an intermediate when it comes to code so I didn't want to join a community like @freeCodeCamp which is geared towards beginners. #100Days is great because it doesn't matter where you're at in your proficiency, just post something you learned every day and thousands of other people follow along with you.

I just passed 40 days on Twitter and have already met and networked with lots of great people doing the same.

I've also begun several projects that I'm passionate about and excited to work on every day now, and feel like I'm making real progress in growing my career and learning new technologies now.

Highly recommended if you have any interest in learning to code better.

This challenge is one of the best things happening in the developer community! I can't stress this enough - if you want to level up, or learn to code, it needs to be a habit.

The community around this movement is inspiring! If you are motivated, you can complete the challenge. I give credit to 100DaysOfCode for helping me get a job as a developer. Definitely recommend!

I got my first dev job towards the end of my first round. I look forward to starting the next one 😊 While it might be hard to do this challenge while in full time job, I think it’s important to point out that you need to and should set yourself up for success. Change up the criterias/rules of the challenge to fit your lifestyle and work. It’s ok not to do it the way everyone else does it, because we’re all different 😊 In my opinion I t’s simply about making a positive change in your life and how you do it is up to you!

The best way to get good at coding is to practice as much as possible. This gives you a framework to do this.

100 Days of Code is a great accountability tool. I found the community on Slack and Twitter to be very supportive.

There are no drawbacks as such, but I did notice that people sometimes spent more time than I thought they needed to agonizing over what really counted as a day of coding, whether they needed to start over from the start if they missed a day or two days, whether they could take short break for a family vacation and still continue a streak, etc. It's a public accountability tool, but in the end, you're only really accountable to yourself. Do what feels right, but honest and upfront about it. That's it.

The 100DaysOfCode provided me with everything I needed to become a developper:

- a wonderful community ready to help when I needed it, sharing news about the best tutos out there,

- realistic learning goals, including projects,

- discipline,

- inspiration to grow and keep learning,

- lots of tech related-news to expand my knowledge of the field,

- friends with the same goals and aspirations.

I see the challenge as an immersive experience, or an ecosystem designed to help you learn in multiple ways.

It had huge positive results for me. Thanks to all the work I had put in the challenge, I earned a scholarship for a nanodegree and for a webdev school. And it was a nice addition to my CV, I've had tons of recruiters contact me. As a result, I was able to choose a job at the company I wanted to join. Huge thanks to the creator of the challenge!

The most beneficial thing 100DaysOfCode challenge helped me to gain was the habit of coding every single day. It is crucial to keep practicing daily in every field we want to learn or improve.

Even with a full time job, commiting to 1 hour of code per day is not unrealistic. I achieved so much during my 100 days: finished 3 certificates, built tons of projects, met new people, and overall had a great time.
