Frontend
Minimum 2 Months

Frontend

<p>This is the cohort that takes you from <strong>"I can read HTML"</strong> to <strong>"I shipped a responsive site that lives on the internet"</strong>. We focus on the modern frontend workflow — semantic markup, CSS that scales, JavaScript that you understand line by line, and a deployment pipeline that doesn't scare you on Monday morning.</p><p>Eight weeks of structured live sessions, daily mentor office hours, and three real briefs that move from copy-this-design to here-is-the-Figma-now-build-it.
