Codecademy aced the first part of the Silicon Valley playbook, which says to first attract masses of users. Plano -based Coursera has launched 45 million paid options running alongside its free coding courses, following quiet testing and discussions with users. The move put the company into competition with Coursera and Udacity. The options range from $ 20 per month to $ 20 per course, and have already brought in 500 in revenue, following the recent closure of two prominent coding bootcamps. Codecademy claims it has registered 45 million free users.
