|
4 | | -An online course series for future application builders. |
| 4 | +**We release content on a regular basis, and there is a lot of training available right now.** For details on materials that are currently available, [check out the shop page](https://ericelliottjs.com/shop/). |

|
6 | | -All courses are currently in preorder. To thank you for your early support and patience, we're running special **half price deals** that are **only available in preorder**. We're building an experience that is unlike any other, packed with knowledge and wisdom you won't find in any other course. |
| 6 | +We believe in **frequent updates** instead of hard deadlines. This allows for the flexibility of real life. For example, it allowed us to react to the ES6 & React takeover that happened in 2015. ES6 took over a lot faster than anybody predicted it would. At the same time, React took off like a rocket ship. Providing a constant stream of new lessons and training rather than a rigid plan with hard dates allows us to stay nimble and deliver training material that's relevant to you today. |

8 | | -These are the courses I wish I had when I was starting my career. You can trust us when we say it's worth the wait. |
| 8 | +**We also believe in providing constant, ongoing value to our customers.** As I type this, in the past week and a half, we've created 5 new videos, including the first 3 episodes of [the new Shotgun video series](https://medium.com/javascript-scene/shotgun-javascript-video-experience-c8b6a7771d49), a screencast that lets you ride shotgun while I build real apps, explaining and teaching every step of the way. |
