Testimonials

The class yesterday with Markus was fantastic. It's so refreshing to hear people start from the point of view of the customer instead of drilled-down into what's become some awfully scary looking syntax. Markus makes complicated concepts clear--like lambda expressions. It's with a huge sense of relief that you all have created and made available the CODE Framework and your classes are really, really helpful. I can't thank you enough.

Thanks! Again, I just want to say that I thought it was a good training, and the trainers were able to keep me engaged in what they were discussing – even though I was remotely attending.

My current project has benefitted tremendously because I was able to bypass many hours of studying dry text to learn the same materials. The key benefit of the training is being able to review the video of the training at a later date.

Congratulations! This was one of the best code classes I've ever taken. Markus is extremely clear in presenting concepts and then implementing them in a comprehensible manner.

I found Markus to be an excellent presenter with informed observations and a good mix of code, slides, and examples.

I attended your day-long JavaScript class a couple months back. I have now begun to write my first stumbling code. I wanted to feed back how helpful your session was, starting with your recommendation of the development environment of Notepad++ and Chrome console output. I would be lost without that tip!

Toby Atkinson

Dataface

We have been playing around with the CODE framework in a small application the team here is putting together to help the field crews with their data entry tasks and it is coming around nicely. The simplicity of it, coupled with the solutions we were taught in the class we attended are paying off.
