This was the main site for All The Code, a destination for new and aspiring software developers to learn how to code. It was a place to learn about programming, software development, and how to get started in the tech industry.
It stemmed from an Instagram account that I created called All The Code that grew to 100K followers. It was fun to work on and I tried to help as many people as I could learn to code and get started in the tech industry.
Sadly my content was hijacked and used by bots to promote crypto, foreign exchange schemes and other crappy internet things. I tried to fight it but it was a losing battle.
One of the things I made during this time was a free introduction to JavaScript, a 30 day course to get up and running with the most popular programming langauage in the world. You can still access it here. It's an introductory course and, while I'm not actively developing it any more, it will be a good starting point for new developers until at least 2030 I recon.
Enjoy the content. It was a fun ride.

Whether you are just starting with coding or if you have 20 years of experience, Simon's posts will always leave you thinking about something you didn't consider before.
His content covers tons of different topics like tools, tech tips, setup, reflections (my favorites) and has helped me keep my motivation going on tough days. I can't recommend it enough.
Also, he is a truly nice guy, but please, don't DM him just to say "Hi". 😂
I started following Simon because of the legitimacy of the content he was posting. Simple, useful and applicable realistic tips based on experience acquired through his extensive career.
I continue to follow Simon because the quality of his posts continues to improve and impress as his follower's counter goes up, instead of becoming more generic as it often happens with your everyday influencer.
And to be completely honest, I want to succeed in a software development career, and probably without even noticing, Simon already played a huge part in it.
I came across allthecode via Instagram reels and found the content to be quite handy yet bite sized.
Hearing from someone who has undergone the process is better than other content out there
Simon is really helpful and always gives solid and useful advice. He has a lot of experience and knows what he's talking about.
Would definitely recommend Simon to anyone at any stage of their coding, whether complete beginner or hunting for their first role!
