The new Full-Stack Chapter has officially kicked off, and we’re thrilled to see so many of you participating in the study sessions, making course progress, and keeping each other accountable.

Special shout-out to @gracekishino, one of our Code Crew members and Full Stack Chapter leads! Grace started to use Codecademy last year to consolidate Git and Javascript knowledge, and she’s come a long way since then! She’s originally from the UK but has spent 22 years living in Japan. We’re thrilled Grace decided to join the Code Crew and doubly thrilled that she volunteered to be one of our Full Stack Chapter leads.

If you’re enrolled in the Full-Stack learning path and would like to participate, be sure to join the chapter and RSVP to any sessions that fit your schedule!
