A good introductory course to AR. In some parts of the course, the lectures go over the code for an extended period of time jumping across different lines of code and it is quite hard to keep track of this. Thankfully, the transcript helps. However, it would be better to explain the code in templates or another way which makes it easier to learn. Overall, this course is definitely recommended to understand the basics of AR.

The course is pretty good for a beginner.But it emphasis too much on using third party authoring tools and proper coding is not implemented.The required code is auto-generated and we as learners are only asked to make few changes on the already existing code.

The code is pretty complex, but well explained. Personally I prefer to work with Unity.
