This is a great course overall! The first four modules were well-laid out and explained. My only reason for giving it four stars instead of five is because I thought the last module was way too hard to follow. I got to the final assignment and didn't have the slightest clue on how to even begin even though I watched all the lectures. I think Yaakov tried to cover too much in the final module. Besides that, I learned a lot and feel so much more confident in my web development skills.

A good course for beginners, consisting mainly of following along as the instructor demonstrates code. The assignments are short and largely restricted to modifying supplied code. This is a necessary restriction of the peer-review grading process: the problem must be highly constrained in order for an untrained person to quickly grade it. You could certainly learn a lot by completing extra examples from a book or other resources, but this is not required to pass the course.

It's a 3.2 Star from me. The first 3 courses was ok but then the other 2 courses is not. It went too fast, unclear and out of date. Probably it will be good for you if you were 2016-2018. Not at the moment of 2022-2023. This course said it's on the way updating but if you are watching Bootstrap 3. Stop it right there and find another one. Bootstrap 3 is really really out of date and not really useful anymore. Bootstrap 4 or 5 would need to know right now instead of 3.

A good course! I really had fun with this course. Mr. Chaikin is an excellent speaker and his course is clear, well organized and the videos are of excellent quality. This course could be further extended because the field is very wide. The only downside of this course is that I asked a single question to Mr. Chaikin and this is one of those Mentor who sent me wandering perhaps because he did not know the answer...
I look forward to another course of Mr. Chaikin !

The course content was truly amazing! I enjoyed it a lot. There were many new concepts that I learned, which I think are very necessary to strengthen the basics. Altogether, I would like to thank the professor and his team for such a wonderful course. I would just like to point out that if there could be a conversation possible between the peers who grade the assignment and the peers who are graded, it will be more beneficial. Thanks a lot once again!

The fundamentals seen on this course are fantastic, and Mr. Chaikin is a great instructor. However, I feel like some of the modules are a little outdated (not so bad for Week 3, but Week 5 can be improved) and the last week feels a little rushed. Despite all that, I absolutely recommend this course if you wanna learn the core elements the right way, and if you are open to look things up and learn on your own, as things have changed a little.

Course was very good and content was to the point. Only thing that lacked in this whole coursera was its upload time. Course was outdated, hence problems were faced during course, still, whats the point to reach destination without any hurdles and challenges. After all, a great learning experience and I am looking forward to enroll in more specialization courses offered by coursera.
-Sincerely Thank you to Yaakov Sir, and Coursera platform

The HTML/CSS part of this lecture are really amazing (5 star I would say). I felt that the JS parts were a bit rushed through and probably needed a separate course. I am also working on the side (as a backend engineer) and got the chance to apply whatever I learnt and not rely on our front-end engineer so it was great. Thanks for the course leader and the course providers for my first step towards becoming a full-stack engineer!

I recommend this course for people who want to start their studies as web developers. HTML and CSS are very comprehensive courses and JavaScript is a little bit harder if you're a beginner in this.
The teacher has a really good explanations and he stimulates all the time to keep going.
The meeting between the teacher and the client to implement a web page for a restaurant is very interesting and makes more real the job.

Great course, covers a lot of areas. Things do get quite advances, particlarly later on in the Javascript modules so you might have to watch it a few times. Yakoov does a great deal of explanation in order for you to understanding, but somethings might not sink in straight away. The assignments are a great way to troubleshoot issues and their is great support on the discussions fourm. Would recommend. Thank you!

El curso es muy bueno de verdad la parte de HTML y CSS es sin ser excesivo, realmente perfecta, pero el salto a Java Script fue un poco confuso, se avanzaba muy rápido, yo sé que por tiempo algunos scripts ya estaban hechos y el instructor los iba explicando pero resulta difícil seguirlo adecuadamente. Tardé demasiado en poder realizar la tarea final, pero finalmente lo logré.
Realmente recomiendo este curso.

Actually the mentor of this course is perfect and made the concepts of html, CSS so clear I have created website :o , but in JS I can't understand quite a things , may be because of I'm not a computer student , I really can't understand , but I'm going to take the next course which is Single page Web Application with AngularJs. I might understand the JS . THANKYOU FOR THIS WONDERFULL COURSE : )

The course is pretty good. The teacher is an excellent explainer and make it pleasent. I cannot give five starts because the last week is completely NOT for begginers, I don't think I have learn much about javascript. I have been working on a website parallel to the course and I don't think I can apply anything learned here because it was too much, too many things and too overlooked

It's a very nice course.
Didn't put the five stars because its time to put up to date some content, it would like to see the last version of bootstrap instead of the the 3.x, and the last notation and changes on ES6, specially for the http request parts, as promises are already supported.
But for a person that is new to this kind of knowledge, this course is a big deal¡¡ congrats

The course is good, but a little but outdated (material from 2016). The instructor is very clear and makes it easy to understand, although a bit too self promoting imho (in the form of his personal website, facebook page, linkedin, etc).
I would say that if you are a beginner, take this course. If you know HTML, CSS and JavaScript, you'll gain only a bit of new info.

As an Iraqi student I have to give huge thanks Yaakov Chainkin. He is enthusiastic and explains the materials very good. I hoped to know more about navigation bars, anything else was amazing. Also, I think the organization needed some sort of simplification. I really hope if this professor can teach in our American university.
Thank you professor Yaakov Chainkin.

By all means, this course is extremely magnificent.
I just rated it a 4 star over five, because it needs an update since it is published in 2015 (the content is still really educational). I think Professor Yaakov should do an update for this awesome 6 weeks course.
But by all means, it is truly beneficial!
Great job #coursera
Magnificent job Professor Yaakov

The course is overall great, the materials are a bit outdated, so it's recommended to use old versions of things, like bootstrap 3, but it's not a big deal. I will say that the last week just gets way too difficult very suddenly, I think it needs a little more of a learning curve consideration for the JS and especially the Ajax sections of the course.

A wonderful course which helped me to make my first website and learn the basics of HTML, css and js. However I believe that in the final week, explanations could have been better as most of the times things went straight over my head and I wasn’t able to keep up with the instructor. But still, it was worth enrolling in the course and I’m really happy

Great content and practical assignments! The only reason I gave 4 stars instead of 5 is that I felt that the ratio of lecture to assignment was a little too high for my taste. Smaller coding assignments dispersed throughout the lectures instead of short, reading-comprehension quizzes would make the material easier to absorb (in my opinion).

It was great experience learning this course later confusion started so I ve rated it 4 although.
Reasons why I rated it 4 :
1.Not taught ES6 which is demanded nowadays
2.AJAX not properly explain (according to me) although its okay because AJAX was not main motive in the course.
Atlast I can say one of best course .Thats it ,Keep it up.

I loved this class and the instructor.
GitHub was a class of it's own.
Would liked to see the class documentation match the current assignments.
The Discussion forums are way to large and full of content for peer reviews. Would be nice to be able to access the content for none review questions in a different link.
Great Experience!

It was a great class! Very informative, and lots of learning. The only thing was that the videos were outdated. The professor did take the time to update us through documents, but for me, it was just a bit difficult to follow along as I am a very visual learner. Because of that, it took me much longer to complete the assignments :/

Really good for the HTML and CSS aspect. However was a bit too reliant on bootstrap and could have taught barebones CSS. The Javascript and Ajax portions were gone through too quickly making me feel like I didnt really understand how to do it. All in all it is genuinely a captivating course and I really liked how it was delivered

A Good and worth course to learn. It helps you to build an good foundation in HTML and CSS and a little introduction to JavaScript in the case of beginners. Sir Yaakov Chaikin is great at explaining topics. Thank you very much for him and the entire Johns Hopkins team for providing us such an wonderful course. Thank you very much.
