The course is excellent in terms of syllabus and objectives. IN my view, it would be even better if there were more explanations about the practical exercises

This is a very intuitive and flexible course upon deadlines. The instructor has control over the course hence making understanding very simple

The documentation was a bit outdated for some stuff, but overall a good course. I definitely learned a lot as a total beginner.

Falta más acompañamiento del docente, ya que en los foros no hay nadie que ayude respecto a las dudas que uno tenga, además teniendo en cuenta que existen algunas lesiones que no son muy claras, siendo que no se explica el por qué se están realizando esos pasos para la configuración, de como serian los procesos en algo real. Creo que le falta más contenido y revisar aquellos enlaces de lectura que no están sirviendo algunos.

The instructor speech is not dynamic at all and the hight number of pdfs and steps made the assigments process difficult.

It is very hard to understand the instructor and the assignments rarely get graded. Besides, some people just post random stuff for their assignments, it is very weird.
