Bad experience with online programming school LearnStreet

learnstreet

The "learn programming online" space is growing fast. With Treehouse, Codecademy, Code School, Coursera, Udemy, Khan Academy and others, LearnStreet has some stiff competition. Let's take a look at how they stack up.

LearnStreet is pretty new. They launched in public beta in the Fall of 2012 with a million dollars in funding after some time building their idea at a startup incubator. That bodes well for them. It means they have time to build, get feedback, and tweak their product. Considering that their competition has been mostly been around for a year or more, they have a lot of ground to make up. Others were already boasting tens or hundreds of thousands of users before LearnStreet was a blip on the radar.
