🦧 The Librarian@that_orangutanFor about a month now I have been studying at Guide DAO (@guidedao) as an NFT developer. Excellent presentation of the material, friendly community, prompt feedback and competent teachers. Haven't studied this much in a long time :)
booandrew@booandrewFall 2021: I think the words "Ethereum" and "smart contract" are something in Indonesian. Meanwhile, I'm clicking buttons and filling out forms at the bank.
I join the bootcamp with the folks at @guidedao.
Fall 2022: I'm revamping the application for a crypto startup, implementing PoS.
DMITRIY@justdoit_0806Immersed in the crypto, in January I went to the solidity bootcamp with these guys @guidedao! It was a little strange at the beginning) You immediately get into a team where every day is interactive and everything develops. Well, i.e. not stupidly "to the lessons - go teach!") In general, they awakened in me a love for programming!
Monica Norse@MonicaNorse@guidedao <3
diparfenov@diparfenov.ethI am currently undergoing training in the 'Solidity Developer' bootcamp by @guidedao! Responsive mentors, a large Discord community, project reviews, live coding sessions, daily streams, and guest appearances on AMAs! Immerse yourself in the world of Web3 with GuideDAO 🔥
Ruslan Shafikov@ruslan_flameBootcamp: Web3 developer at @guidedao This is something new and cool for me! Atmospheric and warm community and it has a lot of interactivity, interesting events on the crypt, virgin and not only. I understand that with them I will reach a new level in my career
Alina@AlinaaGafarovaaI have been taking the Solidity Developer course for the third month now and I am very glad that I chose Guide DAO. I was lucky, because I got access not only to theory without water and constant practice, but, as it turned out, to a whole community of like-minded people, which is incredibly valuable. Thanks guys @guidedao
kilsza@AndrushakilszaMCS - one love <3
The best community, the best teachers, the best atmosphere.
MCS - too the moon 🚀
@guidedao
Nikolay Semenov@lukeyatvoyotets@guidedao cool guys 🫶
At first I was very skeptical, but as I got drunk, I realized that the project is quite strong and the approach is at a high level. It seems that the guys were able to gather around the community geeks on the crypt and did it super well!
Andrey@web3_4d@guidedao You are the best! After a few months of studying with you, I got a job at Web3, and still continue to learn new with you in blockchain dev field!
0xCMD🦇🏴@0x_cmdThrough a series of events, I realized that I want to be involved in building this new internet. I didn't have a background in development, but at @guidedao, I'm filling in those gaps. My technical knowledge is expanding, startup ideas are emerging. And most importantly, there is a community that is equally engaged in shaping the ideas of the future.💫
Andrey@web3_4dIn April of this year, I made perhaps the best investment of the past few years. It was an investment in myself, or more precisely, in the knowledge that is shaping our future right now. I enrolled as a smart contract auditor at @guidedao. From the very first day, it became more than just a hobby. It became a part of me!
Ramon@De_FiDiverThe best community in the CIS for full immersion into the world of Web3🌐 @guidedao A high-quality learning platform with constantly updated materials. Interesting guest speakers at lectures. Perfect for those seeking a strong crypto environment. I have no regrets about joining these guys. Big love❤️
3TERRRNITY@SkijFedorIt's been almost half a year since I've been hard at learning front-end development and immersing myself in the world of web 3.0 with @guidedao.
An ultra-high course with great teachers to help with any questions and great co-workers who motivate you with their passion.
prestx00@Adyan51250188A strong team, updated quality content, feedback from mentors, a lot of practice, live streams on Discord on various topics, and a top community. All this is put together by the awesome folks at @guidedao. I've now completed about half of the course and have no regrets trusting them. Wholeheartedly recommend 🔥
Alexander Sonov@a_sonovI have been studying programming at the @guidedao programming school since February and what I want to say is that it was the right decision. Daily streams, podcasts, correspondence in discord chats on any topic and constant updating of educational materials make learning coding inevitable.
All code and high salaries!
BioNoN@Mahaparamitaya1Yay! I've been studying as a solidity developer at @guidedao for 3 months now. Awesome school and awesome community!
