I've been doing some research into programming bootcamps recently. I've seen that many people recommend Hack Reactor, DevBootCamp, MakerSquare, and Devatory. Is there a special reason why many of these camps teach RoR? Which would you recommend and why?
Ruby on Rails is often taught because it is one of the most in-demand skills in tech startups (other skills would be frontend skills, iOS, data science) - this applies to Silicon Valley, NY, and possibly Austin (not too familiar with Austin's tech scene). Many startups use Python, Java, or C#, (popularity in that order), but it's a drastically smaller number. Big tech corps are a different matter, but coding programs don't really target them.
The location the program is in matters quite a bit and can influence your ability to get a job in a certain location.
I'm somewhat familiar with these programs. If you provided an email in your profile we could talk about it more.

Thanks again and Merry Christmas!
