Sindre, so great to see you posting here and doing well. We met in the early Imba days.

Over the years, I've referred many folks asking for what I believed to be the best resources for self-teaching web development to Scrimba.

All the best to you & the team, I'm sure the future is bright.

At the end of 2023 Sony & Steam informed me that I spent hundreds of hours playing games. “Hundreds of hours?!? With that much time I could learn to play the piano or speak Spanish! Hell, I could learn to code!” I stumbled across Scrimba on a Reddit thread and signed up for the paid version after a few lessons: it was unlike anything I had tried in the past. Now I’m able to build basic react apps but I have a much be…

Would love to see a blog post about your journey if you wrote one (or are planning to). Other resources used, key lessons along the way, etc. Scrimba looks great but surely there has to be a point where you take off the training wheels, right?

That is AWESOME! I am wondering, are you creating all the content yourself?

I am doing plenty of courses across different platforms, from udemy to teachable selfhosting etc. They all lack the interactivity. I am currently hosting the code samples myself and basically redirect students there, where they can interact.

But scrimba is another league!

If you open this up similar to how udemy just hosts videos and does revenue share, count me in. With the webcontainers, the sky is the limit and beyond.

We currently create the courses ourselves, but would love to see if there’s an opportunity for a collab here. Please send me an email at per@scrimba.com :)

This is wild. I'd love to use this to do a demo app for my JS framework, Joystick [1]. Would a collab be possible (happy to contribute the end result to the Scrimba library)? [1] https://cheatcode.co/joystick

Yes, we'd be happy to collaborate on creating something on Joystick. It looks like an awesome framework!

Earlier quoted context omitted.

What do you mean it's not for humans, and that agents will outclass humans at this? Humans like to learn new things, and this seems like a novel format for learning. I don't think an AI is ever going to "outclass" our curiosity or desire to learn.

oh, i meant humans as teachers. if i had to choose between a human teaching me quantum physics equations or a collection of richard feynman’s lessons turned into agentic lessons, i’d pick the agent. i mean, we can compile the whole collection of lessons in agentic form way faster than any human could deliver the same number of lessons. the product is exclusively for humans. the teacher, i'm not so sure.

That makes a lot of sense, thanks for explaining.
