Front-end developers code the visual layer of sites and web apps, adapt them to various screen sizes, optimize performance and implement animations. They write landing pages and web apps capable of working with existing databases, too!
Next up: introduction to HTML and CSS. Find your way around fonts, semantics, responsiveness, selectors and specificity, media queries, links, and forms.
Terminal is an important tool for any developer, so it's high time for you to exercise basic commands! You'll start using a Git version control system, too.
On the basics stage we omitted a fascinating, but demanding concept: objects. We'll introduce you to them now, though not only — JavaScript still has a few aces up its sleeve!
Having mastered the fundamentals, we're free to take on the advanced issues. So, brace yourself for methods, closures, prototypes, constructors, classes, and... something extra.
Chooo chooo, next station: component-based development, and one of the most popular library in the front-end realm, React. We'll learn how to combine it with TypeScript, too!
In professional terms: TypeScript is a JavaScript superset. In human terms: it's JavaScript modified for more versatility and comfort. We'll go through, i.a., object types and classes.
If JavaScript with React and TypeScript already feel like a small Lego set, good news! There's a fourth brick to play with, a library, Redux, helpful in app state management. Let's take a look.
We interact with the Internet day by day, and yet, few know how it all works. If you don't, either — we've got your back. We'll explore the OSI model, HTTP, encryption, APIs and security issues.
Don't go running just yet, algorithms simply need some taming. Data structures, too: we'll take on arrays, linked lists, stacks, queues, hash maps and sets... among other things.
Object-oriented programming is a concept fundamental to many programming languages, most notably: Java, Python, JavaScript and C++. So — let's acquire a good understanding thereof.
Learning by doing is our favorite technique here at Mate, and this module is no exception. You'll learn the Vue.js framework by using it to build a ToDo App. How cool is that?!
Angular is a JS framework used mostly to create scalable, sing-page web apps. We'll learn how to use it, beginning with forms through components, observables, state management, and more.
Nothing can replace teamwork, and we understand that well. Mate is the first community-based bootcamp, where you can connect with other students and overcome challenges together.
Imagine spending thousands of dollars on a course you might not like. Ugh. At Mate, you can start studying under a free plan and access all courses for just $23.7 a month, which is an absolute steal.
Our platform comes with a built-in code editor and GitHub integration, because we believe in learning by doing. Tasks make up roughly 80% of each course, with the rest reserved for bulletproof theory.
Self-study is much easier with a go-to place for… everything. Using the Mate platform, you can access all courses, solve tasks, read theory, take quizzes, chat with peers and attend events.
If competition floats your boat, we are happy to provide. Study regularly and meet self-imposed deadlines to maintain streaks, earn achievements and climb our leaderboard. Do you have what it takes?
Ran into a difficult task, but don’t feel like socializing? AI Buddy is there to help! And if you want to rehearse, our AI-powered quizzes will evaluate your answers and offer feedback in real time.
Completed the course at Mate academy a few months ago, already received my first job offer. Grateful for the knowledge and building confidence in my abilities. As a bonus, there's a community of your peers, with connections that can be useful in the future. Highly recommend to everyone!

Hello everybody! I have been working as a FE Developer for a week now, all this happened to me thanks to Mate academy. Just 4 months ago I just read what JS is, what HTML is, I was fascinated by it, I liked it and I decided to act in this direction.

Become a part of the first community-based coding bootcamp
Under the free plan, you can access selected JavaScript topics and use social features in a read-only mode. It’s a chance to explore our platform without making commitments.
Do I have to add my credit card to access the free plan?
No, no and also no. Absolutely not. Just… no. Think of “Oh my God no” from The Office. That’s how much of a “no” the answer is.
Can I change my plan later on?
You can both upgrade and downgrade your subscription plan anytime, no questions asked.
What are the payment and billing options?
You can pay by card, Google and Apple Pay, either weekly or monthly, depending on the subscription plan you choose.
Are your courses suitable for beginners?
85% of Mate students don't have any experience in tech. But if this doesn't reassure you: our courses cover even the most basic topics, and your peers are there to help, too!
What programming languages will I learn?
You’ll learn all that’s expected from a front-end developer, including a handful of languages: JavaScript, TypeScript, HTML and CSS; a few tools, like Git and Terminal; as well as libraries and frameworks, namely React, Redux, Vue.js and Angular. Though, that’s still not all.
How long does the course take to complete?
The course is self-paced, so there are no real deadlines you have to meet. If you were to study consistently though, say 2-3 hours a day, you could wrap up in 5-6 months.
Where will I be able to work after the course?
Mates land their first jobs as front-end, front-end (Angular), front-end (HTML, CSS, JS), Vue, React or React Native developers. They mainly work with websites and web applications.
