Hello! Welcome to the about page. My name is Jeremy Grifski, and I’m the founder of The Renegade Coder, a software education website officially launched in April 2017. The purpose of The Renegade Coder is two-fold:
- To provide free software curriculum to the developer community (see Code and Teach)
- To document my journey as a developer, author, and mentor (see Blog and Meta)
As long as I’m true to those ideals, we’ll all be satisfied. Of course, to sustain that mission, I rely on support from people like you. If you’d like to show your support, make sure to become a member, hop on the mailing list, or follow me on Twitter
.
If you’re interested in learning more about me, check out my portfolio. Meanwhile, if you’d like to learn more about the website, feel free to take a look at the following documents:
With that said, as inspired by Alex Ewerlöf, I feel I must state that I have not, do not, and will never use generative AI tools like ChatGPT or Claude at any point in my writing process. In addition, while I offer the content of my website to anyone who wants to learn from me, nothing I write is permitted to be used for training generative AI models. Like Alex, I am under no illusion that this kind of statement means anything to companies that will continue to scrape my work, but I owe it to myself and my readers to be transparent about where I stand in regards to generative AI.
