Rationale
Thinkific is a platform for creators to build and sell online courses, communities, and other digital learning products. While it offers features for creating and managing courses, it does not directly provide expert-led courses or live interactive workshops in the same way Frontend Masters does. Instead, it provides the tools for others to create and host such content. It does offer features like unlimited courses (akin to an all-access subscription for the creator's content), curated learning paths, progress tracking, on-demand video courses, team plans, certifications, code-along exercises (through SCORM), multi-device access, skill assessments (quizzes/exams), and responsive support. The core difference is that Thinkific is a platform for *creating* learning experiences, not a direct provider of them.
