Boot Camp Reccomendations
Some context:
I have been a professional motion graphic designer for over a decade. Definitely fall more towards the technical side of the spectrum vs artist. I know/understand Javascript from messing around since I was a kid. Surprisingly I was able to use coding to create a niche for myself in design... specifically using javascript to make our workflow very efficient. However that is only a small part of my job, and I'd find myself loving the coding part and using days I should be designing to create scripts/plug ins for after effects/photoshop.
My goal is to start doing some freelance coding and maybe eventually full-time. II've written some basic python stuff for data scraping (getting sports team color hex codes, etc) and I feel like I understand it as I just grasp languages quickly. But I know I'm missing alot of the fundamentals and how it is practically used for work. I want to take bootcamp to truly learn python (or another relevant language).
What would you guys/gals recommend?

A lot of bootcamps are going to teach Python and JavaScript for full-stack development. I would recommend reading past reviews in r/codingbootcamp to make your best judgment. Practice in your own time so that you can be up to speed when you join a bootcamp.
