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.

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.

Good course, really liked it but explaining the syntax and letting the students know from where the components come

Overall, it is a good intro for front-end development. Explained the basic knowledge of web pages, web servers etc. Some HTML and CSS terms are still confusing, the teacher didn't go deep. You need to do a lot of research by yourself

Very good course. Exelent explanations. The only thing that should be improved is adding more labs and tasks to code, because it is very rewarding getting a good grade and creating something while putting your knowledge into it.

Week 2 content was quite complex and hard to understand. The 20 minutes of reading notes would've been much more useful, and easier to understand if it was made into a video format. This is regarding the CSS styling module.

To be honest, I have got lots of basic knowledge in these course which i was looking for past many days. Most of the time we get exact answers for difficult questions but not for simple one that easily. Thank you

I am glad I have taken this course. It might be easy for someone who already has knowledge. I have felt a bit challenged. The only thing I didn't like was the speech of the Meta staff. It seemed like an AI voice.

I rated this course in 4 stars because in the 2nd week of this course there is an Assignment that is to make a style sheet with the help of CSS and i make it as the Document said but it didn't pass the test.

We need more excercise, everything else is awesome thank you; just my point of view but Ican find easily excercise on the internet but I think it would be a better idea that it can be done by you.

Thanks.

It covers major useful topics and demonstrated well with good examples. Simple and precise. Any one can learn from here. Watching videos are sufficient, should do some homework to reinforce the knowledge.

It was a good introduction, but i could use more labs and exercises. Also it would be better if they would just let us do the lab and then give us the step by step guide, so it would be more challenging.

Es un buen curso, lo tome como parte del certificado de Meta. Sin embargo siento que es demasiado basico para alguien que ya tiene conocimientos en IT. Recomiendo tomar esto en cuenta antes de tomarlo

The course itself was very well explained and a great starting point for beginners, however the inbuilt IDE wasn't broadened enough for users to write their code differently but had the same outcome

It was very fun to learn! Videos were short and easy to watch. However, I found some of the readings were hard to understand because they used terms that werent' explained in the previous lessons.

Good overview and introduction. The Coursera Coach is a helpful tool to check and expand on the content. I wish there was more extensive coding involved to further strengthen the practical side.

Got to know many different types of framework available which outside looked like a whole new cake, but when completed the course finally got to understand it was just a slice of a big cake

Great introduction but does require personal research into certain topics and at times the instructor would gloss over topics or be little to fast but it is a video so you can always rewind

Really high quality standards learning material however is the transition from HTML CSS to frameworks is too fast for a complete beginner (this judging from a professional's point of view )

The course is actually for complete begineer. I just suggest that most of the additional reading should be less of material you will have to purchase and some are volumius as well. Thanks

I would highly suggest to add more bootstrap content as without much background it becomes very advance.

Also I don't get the need of introducing React JS when we haven't been taught JS

great, 2 or 3 little glitch that should be easy to fix in some quiz but overall nice and clean and just missing a bit of practice to make sure it stays in mind otherwise I like it

It was very good as an introduction to the world of webdevelopment. However, I don't realy recomend this course for absolute beginners that has no prior knowledge to the field.

I liked this course because it was easier however when doing the labs the instructions were not very clear and confusing at one point, but other than that it was very helpful
