  "what": "A 501(c)(3) public charity running an interactive browser curriculum plus a huge YouTube channel, publication and forum, reaching over a million people a day. Certifications each take roughly 300 hours and span responsive web design, JavaScript algorithms, front-end libraries, Python and data analysis. Courses, projects and certificates are all free.",
  "why": "Where to send someone who cannot yet read what the agent wrote. Slower than vibe coding, but the cheapest way to close the fundamentals gap that leaves you helpless when a generated app breaks.",
  "warn": "Volume over polish: some legacy sections still teach older patterns, and the certificates carry little weight with employers on their own.",
