Introducing miniCodeCamp - A free online mini coding bootcamp

Hello, beautiful people. I am super excited to introduce miniCodeCamp, a free online mini coding bootcamp for beginners.

First of all thanks to hashnode and Clerk for hosting this hackathon.

The hackathon was so exciting even Jim Carrey was excited to participate. Check out the tweet below.

Idea

The world of modern web development is vast. With so much to learn, it's easy to understand why beginners can get so overwhelmed. Having seen people give up before they even begin, I wanted to create something helpful for beginners. In general, most beginners prefer to watch videos when learning to code, so I came up with the idea of creating a beginner-friendly, YouTube-based mini coding bootcamp to make learning with YouTube more motivating and exciting.
