About Code.House
Code.House is an independent website that publishes free, practical guides to software development, free tools that run in your browser, and a learning roadmap for people teaching themselves to code.
Why it exists
Most developer content falls into one of two piles. Either it is reference documentation, which is accurate and assumes you already understand the subject, or it is thin search-engine filler that repeats the same paragraph in five different orders. The gap in between — material that explains the thing properly, in ordinary language, with working examples and honest limits — is smaller than it should be.
This site aims at that gap. Each guide is written to be the explanation someone wished they had when they were stuck. Each tool exists because the common online version of it uploads your data to a server for no reason.
What is published here
- Guides. Ten in-depth articles on HTML, CSS, JavaScript, Python, Git, APIs, performance, AI coding assistants, stack selection and deployment, each dated and revised as tools change.
- Tools. Six browser-based utilities that process everything locally.
- Roadmap. An eight-step path from no experience to employable craft, with realistic time estimates.
- Videos. A curated index of free long-form video courses, grouped by topic.
- A project route. One form for describing software you want built, read by a person.
How it is funded
Advertising, served through Google AdSense, pays for the site. Advertisers have no influence over what is published and no advance sight of it; ads are selected automatically by Google, not chosen here. The site may also carry clearly labelled sponsorship in future, and enquiries about sponsorship, advertising, partnership or the domain itself are welcome through the link at the top of every page.
Guides are never written in exchange for payment. If that changes, the page carries a sponsorship label at the top, before the content. Full details are in the editorial policy.
How content is made
Content is drafted with the help of AI tools and then reviewed, corrected and fact-checked by a person before publication. Code is tested against current versions. Claims about third-party behaviour link to primary documentation. Errors get corrected rather than quietly removed — report one and it will be fixed.
