I agree with valuing the The Struggle aspect of the curriculum as-is. Maybe it’s because I tend to be somewhat of an autodidact but I think the challenge-level seems just right enough to reward those who choose to stick with it while “weeding out” those who want more than what is already provided.
I mean, as it is, FreeCodeCamp is FREE and has a supportive forum that offers me quick support when I’m stuck. What more can one ask for? Further, it seems to me that the wall-of-words aspect of FCC might aid in training would-be developers to read tech documentation.
All that said, FCC seeming near perfect in difficulty to me might just be to do with my personality. I am so thankful that FCC is around and will contribute in the future versions in anyway that I think I can.
