Individual Plan

What You Get

The Individual Plan is designed for developers who work alone, eat lunch alone, and debug alone at 2 AM while questioning their life choices. We see you. Here's what's included:

• A Place to Sit: We have chairs. Some of them have all four legs. You are welcome to sit in one. The blue swivel chair by the window is Kevin's — do not sit in Kevin's chair. Everything else is fair game.
• Access to WiFi: Technically, the WiFi exists. Whether it works is a separate philosophical question. On good days, you can load a Google search in under 30 seconds. On bad days, we all just stare at the loading spinner together. It's a bonding experience.
• Rubber Duck Debugging: We don't have rubber ducks, but we have 7 teenagers who will listen to you explain your code and then say "have you tried console.log?" This is functionally identical to a rubber duck but louder.
• Emotional Support: When your code doesn't work, we will gather around your screen, squint at it, and say "hmm that's weird." We will not fix it. But you will feel less alone in your suffering. That's the product.
• A Sense of Community: You will no longer be a solo developer. You will be a solo developer sitting near other solo developers. Together, you form a group of individuals. This is technically a community.

Pricing

Our pricing model is simple, transparent, and revolutionary:

• Monthly Cost: $0.00
• Annual Cost: $0.00
• Setup Fee: $0.00
• Hidden Fees: $0.00 (we tried to hide fees once but we had no fees to hide)
• Enterprise Add-on: $0.00 (it's the same thing with a different name)

It's free. It has always been free. It will always be free. We cannot charge money because we are a high school club operating out of a room we don't pay rent for. Our treasurer's financial report last quarter was a Post-it note that said "$0." We laminated it.

Testimonial

"The Individual Plan changed my life. Before Hack Club, I was coding alone in my room, talking to myself about JavaScript closures. Now I code in the computer lab, talking to myself about JavaScript closures, but near other people. The proximity has been transformative. I feel seen. I feel heard. I feel like someone might eventually explain closures to me."

Editor's note: Marcus wrote this testimonial about himself. He is the only person who has ever used the phrase "Individual Plan." He invented the Individual Plan. He is its sole customer. He gave it 5 stars. We did not have a rating system. He built one specifically to rate himself. He then removed it because it "cluttered the UI."
