To become a successful Web Developer, you need a combination of soft and technical skills. All of these essential skills are taught in Le Wagon’s Web Development bootcamp. 
On the soft skills side, adaptability is crucial for navigating the dynamic and fast-paced tech industry. Being an independent learner and possessing excellent problem-solving abilities are also important. Additionally, a genuine interest in learning new technologies and strong communication skills will help you collaborate effectively with team members and stakeholders. 
On the technical side, proficiency in HTML, CSS, and JavaScript is essential, as these are the foundational languages for web development. Familiarity with Ruby, as well as a solid understanding of UX/UI principles, is also important. Furthermore, knowledge of web development frameworks, APIs, and databases will enhance your capabilities. 
With these skills, a Web Developer can create responsive and visually appealing websites, maintain and update existing ones, and continuously improve their craft to remain relevant in the ever-evolving tech landscape.

Here’s what you need to know about technical prerequisites for each bootcamp: 
  • Web Development: No technical background is required. We look for motivated, curious, and social students. If this describes you, you’re ready to apply and complete the selection process. 
  • Data Science & AI: Requires basic programming and math knowledge: 
    • Programming: Familiarity with data types, conditions, loops, functions, and data structures (arrays and dictionaries) in any language like Python, Ruby, or JavaScript. 
    • Mathematics: Comfort with high school-level functions, derivatives, and linear equations. We provide pre-bootcamp resources to help you brush up on linear algebra and statistics. 
  • Data Analytics: Beginner-friendly, with no prerequisites beyond motivation to start your tech journey. 
  • Data Engineering: Beneficial to have foundational skills in programming, databases, and data infrastructure. Successful data engineers often blend these technical skills with strong soft skills to solve complex data challenges. This bootcamp provides hands-on training to help you build or deepen these skills, whether you’re starting fresh or seeking advanced expertise.

Building a strong foundation in programming fundamentals and relational databases is crucial to becoming a versatile software developer or engineer. At Le Wagon, we emphasize the importance of these basics because they’re key to understanding how data-driven applications work in real-world environments.
Before diving into JavaScript, you’ll learn HTML, CSS, Ruby, and SQL, giving you the tools to create robust, data-centric applications. With a solid grasp of relational databases, you’ll gain the confidence to tackle more complex programming challenges and build responsive, interactive web experiences. 
Our hands-on curriculum—covering Ruby on Rails, JavaScript, HTML, CSS, SQL, Git, GitHub, Heroku, Sidekiq, Websockets, OOP, Testing, APIs, Bootstrap, ActiveRecord and more.—ensures you're adaptable across various technologies. This focus on learning foundational skills prepares you to take on new languages and frameworks with ease, enabling you to stay agile in the ever-evolving tech landscape.

AI is transforming web development by boosting efficiency and opening doors to innovative solutions. By automating repetitive tasks, speeding up testing and deployment, and enhancing security, AI enables developers to focus on complex, creative work. This accelerates the development timeline and elevates the quality of web applications, making them more responsive, secure, and user-friendly.

AI also empowers developers to push boundaries, fostering the creation of new products and startups. While AI tools can assist in design and prototyping, skilled developers are essential to bring these ideas to life. Together, AI and human expertise are driving the next wave of creativity and progress in web development.

Le Wagon offers a Part-Time learning option designed to fit around your work commitments, requiring around 16 hours study per week. This flexible program combines pre-recorded, on-demand lectures with live teaching sessions, allowing you to learn from home. Ideal for balancing work and life, the part-time bootcamp provides the same collaborative environment as the full-time course, with access to expert instructors, teaching assistants and a supportive student community.
