No CS Degree was started by Pete Codes to document the stories of developers who came to programming through non-traditional routes — bootcamps, self-teaching, career changes, and everything in between. It’s become a valuable resource for anyone who wonders whether formal education is a prerequisite for a career in tech.
What to Expect
Interview-driven issues featuring self-taught developers at all career stages — from recent career changers landing their first job to senior engineers and founders who never set foot in a computer science lecture. Each interview covers the learning journey, the job search, and practical advice for others following the same path. Honest, grounded, and consistently encouraging without being unrealistic.
Who It’s For
Career changers considering a move into tech, bootcamp students wondering whether it’s worth it, and self-taught developers who want to see themselves reflected in the industry. Also genuinely interesting for hiring managers and anyone involved in developer education.
