Hmm this poses an interesting theory. We know that part of the motivation of Obama's "Learn to Code" initiative and the coding bootcamps was to increase the supply of developers. Now that there is supposedly a recession coming it might be the case that in the end it will end up tilting the scales back in the developers court. The reason being that not 100% of the bootcampers are in it fore the love of the job but only for the money. We will see people dropping out of the market and once it recovers we might be back in a situation where there were too few devs.
