More advanced courses ?

Hello i am currently hesitating to extend my membership as i find most of the courses available now too basic / for beginners. I understand that beginner are the largest audience of potential customers but are you planning to add more advanced courses for :

JS / especially AJAX Rails and Python ?

Thanks

Hi Mike, I've read on the forums over the last month or so there's potential plans for Java and Python tracks. As well as keeping content updated I think there are lots of plans to push things further along. Have you had a look at the content roadmap? They don't tend to give info too far ahead in time but gives a bit of a heads up of what's upcoming and might give you an idea whether it is the right potential fit for you.

In terms of intermediate content, I think Treehouse is strongest in its Ruby and CSS categories.

  • Intermediate CSS-related topics: Sass, Compass, Bootstrap
  • Intermediate Ruby Topics: Using CSS Frameworks with Rails, Paritals, Asset Pipeline, Forms with Rails, Using ActiveRecord

On the JavaScript front:

  • AJAX course
  • Interactive JavaScript (due out sometime next month)
  • jQuery Plugin (Workshop)
  • Object Oriented JS (Workshop)
  • AngularJS (Workshop)

I am thinking of making a temporary upgrade to Pro, as there are a fair few workshops i'm interested in viewing, just a case of finding the right time. :)

I would enjoy seeing the Laravel courses expanded to continue the ODOT project in a similar fashion as the Rails project has progressed.
