Why people choose Codefinity for their career
Kwizera Mugisha
The teaching methodology at Codefinity is excellent, and I particularly appreciate how it has prepared me to handle real-world coding problems. Currently, I am delving into Node.js and eagerly anticipate building full-stack projects that integrate all the knowledge I have gained.

My first course was 4 hours, I did it in a few days, "nugget-style. The instructions are very clear and easy to understand. There is even a hint to help you get the answer, and if you still cannot get the answer, then you can display the answer. I love the learning style that is used, it engages me.
Bill Wagner
I have really liked the browser-based lessons that allow me to code within the lesson. The RUN button allows me to test the code I write before submitting for a grade.
Stephanie Chan
As I went through the first course of the Python track, I liked the way the course was lay out (in easy and digestible modules) with little exercises at the end of each concept.
Daniel Chinea
I have gained a lot of practical and logical thinking skills, along with patience for myself and confidence in myself that I can learn programming.

Hi Teacher, in the twitter Project, in the following Snippet I found one issue which is the address you used for reading the file (posts.json). I think the correct directory is ". . /database/posts.json" Also could you please teach me why you use "next" in the call back of get method of router? I mean the following Snippet: router.get("/", async (req, res, next) => {}) my understanding is that we use "next" to pass the request to the next middleware but in the route handlers we use res.send which will close the request-response cycle. So could you please tell me why you use "next"? Thank you for your consideration
