FAQs

  1. What is the difference between JumpStart and JumpStart Live (JSL)?

    JumpStart is a curriculum that all accepted Ada students are expected to complete prior to the start of the in-person classroom experience.

    JumpStart Live(JSL) is a 3-week in person class prior to the start of Ada to help prepare incoming Ada students who are not yet well-versed using loops, arrays, and hashes.

  2. What should I have installed on my computer prior to JumpStart Live?

    Prior to JSL, you are not required to have anything previously installed. It can however be very helpful if you have the following installed.

    1. Visual Studio Code
    2. Ruby 2.5.5 installed with RBenv
    3. Slack
    4. Google Chrome & Firefox

    You can find a instructions on how to install these on the Ada Textbook Curriculum installfest.
