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.

The design of the course, and the fact that it is broken down into smaller pieces, makes it easy to digest. It is also much easier to follow than some of the other developer courses. This has been my best experience by far! Very clear instructions, great examples, great visuals, it didn't feel rushed... it was a perfect class!

I have the ADHD to back me up in my studies, so sometimes reading and receiving instructions can be a bit of a challenge. this course had me wrecked on the graded week 2 assignment, it took me forever to figure out what they wanted with the "DIF". eventually got it and could move on, but like I said the ADHD, was not helping.

It was a great introduction. Does not overwhelms a beginner. One suggestion is to add one more lab assessment for working with forms and all its's basic input types. That's the only thing that was not reinforced in this course. Also, Additional resources are too much to go through. Consider reducing them. Had a lot of fun!

A course that is easy to follow and clearly doesn't forget that it is tailored for absolute beginners. It gives you a good taste of just some of the capabilities when using HTML, CSS and Javascript alongside its many libraries.

It acts as an amazing leap-pad in starting your journey in the world of Front-End Development.

learned how to write HTML code and style it using CSS. I also learned how to use various libraries like Bootstrap and React. I understood the difference between a website, a web application, and a web page. I learned what grid systems are and how information travels over the internet, and much more. Thanks a lot 🙏

This course is very informative, giving you a view of what is needed to become a front-end developer. Not only does it have instructional videos (for those who are visual learners), it gives you resources to use for future endeavors. Utilizing these resources, I found it very easy to complete the hands-on projects.

To me this is a first professional course on any platform ever. I've done one CS50 about how the technologies work under the hood and I loved that. This course is also similar experience for me. Thanks again Meta for making this awesome course for the newbies like us who can't pay a lot of money for the Bootcamps.

I have followed some other courses, but this one had more in less time. 100% worth it. What I like about this course is that it offers a complete overview of what we must study to reach the end goal. I've been wondering what to do, and this course solved that issue. Thanks to all the Meta staff who worked on this.

I would say this course is very well done.

What I have found particularly great is that by the end of the course you not only have a basic understanding of FE Web Development but are able to make a basic website using Boostrap and even React.

Compliments to Meta and all tutors inolved in this spcialisation.

The courses are typically divided into modules, with each module covering a specific topic or concept. Students will be introduced to the basics of web development, including how to structure web pages using HTML, style web pages with CSS, and create dynamic and interactive web applications using JavaScript.

It's a really nice course. A person without any knowledge of web development can learn a lot through this course. I love the part where you get to practice what you have learned and you are guided on you way. I would recommend it to beginners and those who are really intereted in learning something new.

I'm completely new to coding and software development. The course explained everything I needed to know to comfortably follow along with the work and professor. I am so glad I found this program because I've had a desire to dive into coding as a potential career for years. This is a great way to begin!

Most of the course was interesting and beginner friendly. I felt that module about UI Frameworks and libraries wasn't like that. That was the only issue I found during the course and I highly recommend anyone interested in Front-end Development, you can enroll in this course and Get Certified by Meta.

I believe this course provide a great foundation of front-end web development skills. The lessons are well organized and presented clearly as well. I would like to suggest that it would be better to include more practice sections so that learners will understand the lessons more by doing it.

This course gives a better understanding of how websites work and what are the differences between front-end and back-end and what are the technologies used in web development. Anyone (even without having knowledge of web development) can take this and can understand all concepts very well.
