David Bragg, whose Australian accent is as thick as a coconut’s husk, says the average salary for a front-end developer is about $114,000.
Yes, even after AI supposedly swooped in and snatched up all the coding jobs.
How would you like to make fat stacks coding from home, just like David and thousands of his students do?
Or is listening to throwback music and trying not to cry over how much worse your life is today working out for you?
Yeah, David didn’t think so.

David’s claim to fame?
He used to work for Canva. Oh, and he bought an article in Forbes Australia that reads like an advertisement for his FES Institute program.
Which is about as slippery as a soapy stepmommy, if you ask me.
But David swears he’s not one of those fake-Lamborghini-guru get-rich-quick types.
He’s here to help you land a real, reputable, high-paying tech job.
Imagine working for:
- Meta
- Microsoft
- Bank of America
- Amazon
- TikTok
- Capital One
Or another company your overweight aunt can ooh and aah over at the dinner table, followed by, “Boy, I wish I had your metabolism.”
And you can do this without a degree, without experience, and without wasting years of your life.
Well, ball gag me, tie my hands behind my back, and run my credit card – I’m sold.
No, but for real, David says, the tech giants could care less about your resume.
You just need the right skills.
And every day that goes by without those skills, you’re not making what you could be making.
Before the beard and fancy shirts, David was cheating his way toward a computer science degree and manning a grocery store cash register for $17 an hour to get by.
He kept applying for prestigious tech jobs and getting denied.
To cope, he numbed himself with video games.
On the verge of giving up, he bumps into a guy wearing a Google badge and finds out the guy’s making six figures with no degree.
The guy tells him three things that change everything.
Here’s what homeboy said:
- Focus on frontend development. It’s the easiest job to get. It’s in high demand because universities don’t teach it. And it gives you the best quality of life because you can work remotely, coding for as little as 2-4 hours per day.
- Project-based learning is more effective than textbooks or YouTube videos. Why? You’re getting real-life experience.
- You can then use any projects you complete to demonstrate your skills and expertise.
David followed his advice, began working on interesting projects, and landed a paid internship two weeks later.
It felt like a solid bro hug with two strong pats on the back from someone you genuinely admire.
Six months later, at age 21, Canva hired him for $160k a year.
Which probably felt like a Pulp Fiction adrenaline shot straight to the heart.
David shared the good news with a college buddy, who followed the same advice and landed an $80k software job at Apple within two months.
Fluke, schmook.
Another guy went from military to $120k software engineer in under five months after David shared his secrets.
At this point, David was convinced that with the right approach, pretty much anybody could snag a high-paying tech job.
Frontend Simplified (aka FES Institute) will teach you that approach.
David believes it’s the most efficient and structured coding roadmap out there.
You even get one-on-one mentorship from a top tech engineer, plus a job guarantee.
I suppose it’s a good offer; just wish David didn’t hide the price.
Reddit’s quoted anywhere from $97 per month to $4,700 one time.
As for learning to code? Borrr-ing.
I’d rather you peel all my skin off, sew it into a costume, and go for me as Halloween while I’m getting grafts in the burn unit.
Here are some FAQs and answers.
Q: David Bragg’s portfolio?
A: About as sparse as happy memories from my childhood. On GitHub, he lists a YouTube tutorial, his Frontend Simplified website, and a project called Google In-Store, which allows Google retail employees to report issues with their store products.
Q: How are they looking on Trustpilot?
A: Excellent. They have a 4.8 out of 5-star rating after 160 reviews.
Q: Do you believe David when he says artificial intelligence isn’t a real threat to coders?
A: Yeah, like I believe the claw machine my niece just sunk $10 into isn’t rigged with weak-ass metal talons.
Q: So is Frontend Simplified not worth it, you think?
A: If your heart’s set on being a frontend developer and you’re willing to become great and embrace AI, go for it. If not, maybe pass.
Q: Okay, say I pass. Then what?
A: Well, you could always do what I do. Watch this video.
