Honestly, pretty solid course. A lot of people were saying this course isn't for beginners but I would strongly disagree. I think the difficulty is FAIR, and really gets your brain thinking logically.

The example given in each video was very helpful in understanding how things work on the internet.

Overall experience was great as it was basically about basics and introduction to web development.

Difícil mas muito bom. TEm uma questão que pergunta sobre o que aparece no web browser. Nunca aparece o que está certo. Sempre dá errado.

Great overview! Information dense, gave a good overview of web technology and yet provided some chances to try out some coding.

In this course, I've gained a useful insight about the basic of Front-End development, especially about how the internet works. I know this course isn't too deep into HTML, CSS and Javascript, but this course is good for anyone who want to understand the first fundamental step to be a Front-End developent.

However, many of english subtitle in this course are out of sync. It's hard for anyone who depend on subtitle to absorb the lesson at the maximum level because the subtitle becomes the distraction of learning experience...

I am always struggling with my online assignments, working in the browser visual studio doesn’t respond I have to literally wait even more than tree days before I can complete an assignment. Please do sort it out.

A lot of knew knowledge which was great, but there's just not enough practice to implement the skills, I guess it does mention some different resources that I can use to find more information about the subjects taught here, and I know websites that I can use to learn more and practice. I heard this will look good on my resume if I get a professional certificate so here I go. I'm hoping that later on in courses they will go more into detail and I will get to have more practice which is what really helps me to learn and remember about what they talk about in the videos.

While I learned a lot, I feel that this course had too much "sit-and-get" and not enough hands on practice as the content is being presented. The practice is too separate from the learning process. I also found all the vocabulary overwhelming, with nowhere to refer to for definitions and explanations. I am a complete beginner and some concepts are talked about without providing background information. I would give this course 5 stars for the content, but the presentation is often confusing.

Biggest problem with the course content is that the instructions need to be improved and videos that include coding sections should include some slide content or a breakdown of the code that is summarized within the video. I was finding myself having to take several screenshots on my own and having to go back to the video in order to parse out what was happening in the code. Course is not bad overall, but needs to be fleshed out more.

I'm not get it too much theory not many practical example of actually code.

I don't think it is that easy, just because I wash four minute video now I know what bootstrap is.

I love both assignment of HTML and CSS, there was struggle but still, I learn more in the end.

practice is great.

There must be more practical example of code , We demand more practical less theory, or atleast equally of both.

This covers a wide range of topics but each topic is covered in such a rush that it almost sounds incomplete. If you can sacrifice some additonal time in learning those topics then definietly choose this course. Or you could simply skip the non important topic altogether that wouldn't have that much effect anyways.

Overall, Good experience not too great. The topics were explained well enough.

first 2 weeks were better than last 2 in my opinion. UI Bootstrap React wasnt as comprehensive for beginners, week 3 was the main part that seemed to assume the learner already knew certain things, i was very lost. i was familiar with some terms just from previous exposure, BUT even with that I wasn't clear on the concepts etc and the way it was explained.

Missing user authentication and CRUD operations for scalable websites. This course as an intro course, I would have expected more javascript. This is a surface level course that's being marketed as a golden ticket into a job at Meta. Also, I was surprised by the lack of Meta content and Meta instructors.

I could not complete the course due to a few bugs during the coding section. The HTML and CSS are all correct but it keeps failing me. Many other students are experiencing these bugs and until they are fix, it renders the course unpassable.

Good for beginner with absolute no knowledge but it lack in depth on the topics covered and the assignments. It should be a bit more comprehensive/challenging and cover more topics especially in the assignments.

Many of the quizes are working not quite well. Some evaluation criteria are bad written and it asks specific orders that doesn't really affect when working with code in real life situations

The course starts out really well but then I feel that the last few modules are rushed and that's a bit disappointing. I would have prefered a more detailed approach.

Basics of HTML and CSS.. Good

I think this course didn't offer or incentivise much communication between students and didnt allow for students to discover solutions or designs creatively

A little bit too fast in explaining and the graded assessment are not challenging since the code is already there but great if you are completely

new to it
