About this site
Scrimba Guide is an independent reader's guide to Scrimba, the interactive coding platform. It exists because Scrimba's catalog is sprawling (70-plus courses, four career paths, dozens of one-off projects, pricing that varies by region) and the official site is built to sell, not to help you decide.
Who writes this
Scrimba Guide is written by Yassine El Haddad, who builds fullstack AI apps and started this site on the side.
He did not take the CS-degree route. He learned to code at 42 Network, the peer-driven, project-based school, and that is the whole point of view here. He reads Scrimba as an engineer who knows which skills hold up on the job, and as someone who still remembers what learning to code from scratch actually feels like.
You can check who he is on LinkedIn and GitHub.
How the site stays honest
- Pricing. This site never quotes a Scrimba price. They vary by country, change without notice, and the official page has the live number. Every reference points there.
- Affiliate disclosure. Some links to Scrimba carry an affiliate parameter. If you subscribe through one, this site earns a commission at no extra cost to you. That does not change which free resources get recommended or which competitors get the nod when they fit better.
- No fabricated quotes. If a testimonial does not link to a real person, a real Reddit thread, or a real review site, it does not appear here. Earlier versions of these pages used synthesized quotes; those have been removed.
- Not affiliated. Scrimba Guide is independent. It is not operated by, or endorsed by, Scrimba.
