good but pls also include love2d and gdscript

Boot.dev is a frustrating experience. On one hand it's the best learning platform for coding i've ever used. The format is top notch, the quality of the courses is high, I am super motivated to continue my streaks, progressing on my path etc. On the other hand the website is VERY buggy. It's weird because I don't see any complaints of this anywhere else online. I thought it was me, so i switched browsers, deleted all plugins, deleted all browsing data, but it's still the same. Examples: - It can take forever to submit an answer and there is no response back, you have to reload the page for the answer to be submitted. - Sometimes the page just crashes and the content you're learning can no longer be fetched ("we couldn't load this session"). - When you have an interview with "boots" you sometimes have to continually force him to allow you to proceed, even though you've answered interview questions just fine. - CLI submissions are super clanky also, one submission might return an error or nothing happens, the same submission a minute later might get the green light. Overall, I recommend it, but it has a long way to go from a technical perspective to be a nice user experience, which is ironic considering the content being taught. Honestly, if they fixed their bugs it would be 5 stars, easily. **Response to Lane: Thanks very much for replying! I've actually sent an email to hello at boot.dev detailing my experience - it may have gone to spam. I don't think I should need to sign up to a 3rd party service to access support. I'd really appreciate a response via email :) **

For people wanting to learn the basics of how to code in various different languages and systems this is a really fun way to learn. It’s not too expensive and the way they “gamify” the process makes it really engaging. Their customer service is dreadful though, they never seem to respond to emails. They are virtually impossible to contact, so if you have a problem there is only one option - cancel the subscription. If their customer service was as good as their platform they’d be a 5 star
