Lambda school has 8 weeks of CS and the rest is just learning frameworks. At least according to this:

Also notable that the CS block is last, right before interviews. It would have made more sense if you put that first and then refereed to that knowledge in the other parts, but now it looks like Lambda school just treats CS fundamentals as interview prep instead of necessary building blocks.

It may be just a difference of bottom up vs top down teaching methods.

CS is interwoven throughout the entire curriculum, not just the final eight weeks.
