. @hyperlink_a is building community-driven online courses. Built inside and out for seriously effective learning.
Small cohorts (<10), actively facilitated, on niche topics.
Courses are more casual, more exploratory, and more peer-driven than anything else I've seen.

. @tryEnlight runs two-week cohorts for web dev in helping beginners stay accountable and learn by doing.
They've run four cohorts already and have stellar reviews. Excited for @samaysham and team to grow the platform further.

Still in stealth, but @gaganbiyani & @wes_kao are building a cohort-based courses platform for everyone.
