Le Wagon's Setup VS crouton

Le Wagon They teach Web dev with Ruby and Data science with Python

The one I'm considering is this. The reviews and searches on Reddit about it have been positive. https://www.lewagon.com/

I did a coding bootcamp in London and cost considerably less than in the US (I work in the US now as a software dev), check them out they have locations all over Europe https://www.lewagon.com/

My wife wants to change career. I work in the IT field, and she thought it looked like an interesting career, so I told her that bootcamps existed and we looked a few up. There are some you can take online, like Altcademy and others you can find directly in Switzerland, like Le Wagon .

I know a few people who attended and were very happy with Le Wagon in Tokyo. The program is specifically shorter and cheaper so all in all you'll end up spending about the same to live in a different country and the program is short enough that you won't even need to get a visa! I really wish I went this route many years ago rather than being self-taught.

Anyway, after some research, I discovered Le Wagon, an intensive nine weeks long coding bootcamp that was perfectly fitting my needs: a way to catch up quickly with the basics of The Code.

Setting up a Rails developer environment is not that easy. I advise you to follow part of this coding school setup https://github.com/lewagon/setup/blob/master/macos.md

It's a little more than that, they then added subpixel and momentum scrolling support to Chrome that bypasses X11 and does something custom [1]. Integration problems like this one that require a bunch of coordination are harder to do in open source land.

I'm guessing GP means natively, not in a VM. I've been super grateful for the VM-based method, but I still prefer the native experience like that provided by Crouton[1]. With Crouton being "maintenance-only" now I share GP's hope that a similar thing will be possible and easy.

One way to install Crouton

Go to the github of crouton they have instructions there https://github.com/dnschneid/crouton

At any rate, you can try Breath, Crouton, Manjaro... those are three of the distros people have found success with. It all boils down to the specific hardware involved... which we know nothing about since you kept that to yourself.

Post in r/crouton and refer to https://github.com/dnschneid/crouton if you haven't already. However, I think it's fair to say that Crouton is now broken to the point of being effectively dead.
