1,000 days of freeCodeCamp
Today, the freeCodeCamp community turns 1,000 days old. We've accomplished a lot together in that time:
1,000 days ago today, I launched a prototype from a desk in my closet. I wasn't sure whether anyone would want to come code with me. Well today, freeCodeCamp is a community of more than a million campers, driven by the contributions of thousands of passionate volunteers. Thanks to the efforts of the community, anyone on Earth with an internet connection can now learn to code for free, at their own pace. freeCodeCamp has become a proven path to a first developer job. And we're just getting started. Here are some of our goals for the next 1,000 days of freeCodeCamp:

If you want to help us improve even faster, you can help us cover servers and other costs by setting up a donation you can afford. Thanks for being part of the freeCodeCamp community. Here's to another exciting 1,000 days! Here are three links worth your time:
