I have never seen a course designed as bad as this one. I mean, seriously. There is no apparent structure, the explanations are just really hard to follow, it's all reading from the slides, the slides are aweful, often with a bad resolution. It's all you get warned in university not to do in presentations. I don't want to question to expertise of the lecturer, but lecturing is not his forte. So: Spare yourself the time. I'm convinced Coursera has many wonderful courses out there. This isn't one of them unfortunately.

The content covered in this course is generally good, however there are a number of serious flaws with the course. Throughout the slides in the lectures, the lab explanations and exams there are countless spelling and gramatical errors, leading to ambiguity and in general making the material look very unprofessional. The exam questions are sometimes extremely unclear and poorly written. The activities are clunky, glitchy and difficult to use. The labs are a very poor user experience, instead of providing virtual machines it would be preferable to give students the project files and let students use the OS/IDE of their choice.

As with the first course, this one is riddles with typos and shows no sign of being put together with care. The screenshots are a bit more legible, but the content is as uninspired as before.

Thank you, I could understand the material well and I think the content is very useful as a stepping stone for further exploration into Spring. The video quality is notably better than in the first course

Very well driven approach to Spring Boot framework

the course is great in content

Excellent course, I like it.

I realy love the courses

Second part of specialisation is much better than the first one. Still, there are some typos or code style errors, but overall, quality greatly improved. This time the information was much more detailed and given with more clarity. I'd say, as an overview, or prepare for an interview course - it is a great start to explore topic on your own.

Slightly less error-laden than the first course but still looks like it was put together in a hurry with no one actually reviewing it. Nevertheless, it was an interesting topic.

Expectation was high !!

Don't enroll in this course; most of the content is outdated, and the labs are incomplete. Don't enroll it.

Seems to have existing issues with labs that have been brought up in discussions and remain unresolved

There are no hands on exercises, I have progressed over 42% into the course yet I have learnt nothing

This is too old and difficulty in understanding

outdated version of spring boot

unenroll this course

Explanation was precise and clear. You'll probably need to pause and understand if you are new to the spring. Labs were helpful in getting the actual environment feel without much hassle of setting things up. Activity and quizzes helped evaluate understanding of concepts and resources attached were very informative. Overall, I thoroughly enjoyed the learning experience. Cheers. :)
