How much does zuzu.codes cost?

The starter track is free — read all lessons and practice for free. Full access to every track (current and future) is $14.99/month. Cancel anytime.

How long does each track take?

Each track is designed as a 30-day challenge — one lesson per day, about 15 minutes each. Go at your own pace, but the structure is built around daily consistency.

What's the lesson format?

Each lesson is a student-teacher dialogue with code examples, followed by a hands-on code challenge in an in-browser editor. You read, you understand, then you write real code.

Do I need prior coding experience?

Our beginner track starts from absolute zero — no prior experience needed. Advanced tracks build on earlier ones, and the platform tells you exactly where to start.

How is zuzu.codes different from freeCodeCamp or Codecademy?

zuzu.codes uses a structured 30-day track format with dialogue-based teaching, an in-browser code editor, and gamification (XP, streaks, progress tracking). The format builds genuine understanding through daily practice.

Week 1 quiz — Automation Foundations

Day 8 · ~11 min●

Six lessons covered: the toolset.execute_action(Action.X, {args}) shape, dict and list response patterns, defensive .get reading, Python-side filtering, max_results and query parameters, and try/except on tool calls.

Week 2 introduces side effects — calls that modify external state. Cement the reading patterns first.

What week 1 covered

Lesson	Concept	Key syntax
1	Calling a tool	`toolset.execute_action(Action.X, {args})` returns a dict
2	List responses	`result.get("messages", [])` — safe-read pattern
3	Dict responses	individual fields with `.get(key, default)`
4	Filtering	`for + if + append`, or list comprehension
5	Tool arguments	`max_results`, `query` for `GMAIL_FETCH_EMAILS`
6	Tool errors	`try / except Exception as e` + `type(e).__name__`

Week 2 = sending. Same shape, but the API call now changes external state.
