Front-end Web Development is an Awesome program!
First off, I have to say this program isn't easy. The added fact that it is online only makes it quite daunting but have no fear Altcademy makes the program both easy to approach, learn and then allow you to apply your skills at the various challenges and projects. By the end of the program you should have a good understanding of CSS, HTML, Javascript.
A big part on why Altcademy worked for me is their instructors. Both instructors, Xiao and Harry were very generous with their time and make it easy for me to reach out to them. Between the chat group, email, 1-on-1 office hours. You can learn on your own pace and also be able to reach out to them at any time. Posting your problem to them in the chat group will usually yield some answers, URL links to where you should follow up.
In some ways the online only aspect allowed a right balance of letting me struggle, figure out my "syntax" errors and then understand how I can correct them. I remember one specific moment when I was doing a particular assignment and was having some problems understanding where I went wrong. During the 1-on-1 office hour, Xiao was very patient with me and went above and beyond to make me understand where I was going wrong. After finishing up, I realized we have gone for about 2.5 hours on that 1 issue I had!
I am thankful that I had the opportunity to learn through Altcademy and can't say enough good things about their programs and offerings. In fact I so enjoyed myself that I will be taking their Back-end Development course in May 2017.
