When it comes to strength training, one of the common rallying cries against calisthenics is that you can't use it to strengthen your legs (no one questions bodyweight training's ability to build epic upper body strength, however).
The reality is that that is only partially true.
You absolutely CAN make your lower body stronger with just bodyweight exercises, though you'll definitely get the best results by combining bodyweight and weighted exercises.
Unless you're already strong as an ox (but hopefully prettier), you might need a little help - and I aim to give it to ya.
