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.

I've used many different programs and websites to learn web development, but this has got to be the most "straight to the point" course I've seen yet. No fluff, no bs, all knowledge and it's instantly applicable. I got through this course in 2 days with previous knowledge and a lot of hours studying, but listen friends: if you are looking to learn fast and get a job, I cannot recommend this course higher. Don't be like me and wait, jump in today!

I really enjoyed this course. The instructor was very clear and descriptive, while also moving at a manageable pace. I also enjoyed the lab exercises and I feel they supplemented the content very well. I look forward to taking the remember of the courses.

One point of improvement is the quizes. I believe more challenging quizes would be more beneficial, also a stricter restriction on re-attempts. That is my personal preference though.

I recently completed a front-end web development course, and I must say it was an exceptional learning experience. The course provided a comprehensive journey through modern web development practices, equipping me with the skills needed to create visually appealing and highly functional websites. The instructors' expertise and clear explanations demystified complex concepts like HTML and CSS making them accessible even to beginners.

Awesome course. It was very intersting to solve the graded assignments and lab work. I got a nice understanding about technologies like Html,Css, React and Bootstrap. Also learnt about how the internet works and many more.

Thank you META for creating such a great course and THANKS a lot to COURSERA FINANCIAL AID program for providing opportunities to learn and get certified for those students who are not able to afford the course.

I've done a few of these classes hosted by companies and they are often filled with useless jargon and language specific to that company, but not the industry as a whole. (I'm looking at you Google) Not this time. Meta has done a great job of building an introductory course to front-end development. This is a short course but it gives you hands-on experience right away and stays clear of company-specific language.

In the "Introduction to Front-End Development" course, I found HTML and CSS particularly engaging, as they form the foundation of web development. However, I faced challenges with JavaScript due to its complexity. I'm eager to explore JavaScript frameworks like React to enhance my skills. Learning more about web development is advantageous, as it opens up numerous career opportunities in today's digital world.

This course was really professionally made. I took 1 other Coursera course through a maor university, but the content was of poor quality and needed updates - I felt I wanted to learn from a program that presented itself professionallly, and Meta definitely did that. I feel like I was learning even through the design of the course. It was easy to follow. Other than the 1 other course I'm a complete novice.

It is a great course to start learning front-end development. I suggest you will really go through the course and the links provided. If you have more time then you can also retake the test over and over again just to test your knowledge. With the browser IDE, you don't need to install something on your computer but if you want to explore more then I would suggest installing and trying it on your computer.

The Introduction to Frontend Development course by Meta provided an excellent learning experience. The practical approach, hands-on exercises, and engaging instructors made it enjoyable and effective. I gained a solid foundation in HTML and CSS, and feel confident in my ability to create visually appealing websites. I highly recommend this course to anyone starting their journey in frontend development.

Thank you Instructors and Speakers for the course! It's good, strait to the point with lots of lab work, very hands on! So you actually get strait to the point and start coding very quickly! Unlink some of the other courses I took which spent wayyy too much time talking about very concepts and theory. This one covers just enough and shares enough links for further reading if you want to know more.

This course has provided me with a concise introduction to web development along with valuable hands-on exercises. I found this aspect of the curriculum to be particularly engaging. The teaching methodology employed was exemplary, as the instructional videos were thoughtfully crafted with essential images and visual aids, making it easier for students like me to grasp the concepts effectively.

Although my knowledge is way beyond what the course teaches, I have to say that the way that the course was structured and taught has been one of the best experiences I have had with online learning. This is a completely non-biased review seeing as how I don't use Facebook and I'm usually pretty critical on how Meta operates. In the end though they have delivered a fantastic course.

Taking this course was great and fun. The Meta staff instuctors made the course very comprehensive with great illustrations and examples. Some of the course assignments and lab works were tough though, but with the deep understanding of the concepts as taught by the instructors, I was able to complete all the tasks successfully. Thanks to Coursera and Meta for the great work.

The Frontend Meta course offers a solid introduction to essential frontend web development concepts, covering HTML, CSS, JavaScript, Bootstrap, and responsive design. The hands-on projects reinforce learning effectively. However, deeper JavaScript topics and a brief introduction to backend technologies could enhance the course's scope for aspiring full-stack developers.

I have to admit, this course, and hopefully by extension the whole Front End program, is very well designed and thought out. I have tried to develop skills using other course providers, but they were never as well organized as this seems to be. My one suggestion would be to increase the amount of hands on programming exercises, as you can never get enough practice!

This course is highly recommended to both of the beginner and mid level experienced developers. I can assure you, if you focus enough, you will learn something new even if you have some experiences. Thanks to Meta for offering this course.

And of course, this can be a good starting point for the learners who want to learn and explore the world of web developments.

I loved every bit of information and the way the teacher taught it. In this first course, we can learn the basics of front-end development and the role of front-end and back-end developers. The web is constantly changing, and we are more than never connected to the world. Therefore, learning web development will open a whole new world of possibilities.

I recently had the opportunity to enroll in the "Introduction to Front-End Development" Meta Course, and I must say it was an exceptionally enriching experience and thanks for approving my financial aid request otherwise I couldn't have got this opportunity thank you Meta and thanks Coursera . This course truly exceeded my expectations in several ways.

Its super easy to learn, and all the modules are a bit smaller so that the learning process goes smoothly and hassle-free. If you are a student or a professional willing to get started with codes, this is the best place. Most importantly, they have multiple assessments with gradings, which help us execute our learning with practice and mistakes

This course does a great job of giving a none technical person an introduction. Some concepts could have used more attention but that might be more than the average user could manage. Overall a great intro but if you want a really solid base I would recommend reading the Amazon books listed in the course content along with other materials.

This is a wonderful course, made with soul. This is a wonderful story in simple words about complex topics. Huge thanks to the amazing creators and Meta Corporation. I am a refugee from Ukraine studying to find a job and this course has been a huge support for me and my family during a difficult time after russia's dastardly attack on Ukraine.

Overall, it was a good course, but there are some areas that could be improved. For example: 1) More difficult questions could be added to the quiz instead of simple and easy ones. 2) Additional tasks should be included for more practice. 3) The final test should contain at least 50 questions to adequately assess the students' knowledge.
