The course has provided a broad and high-level overview of back-end development. I am not quite new to the topic, but found the content useful, especially with regard to UI libraries and frameworks, and commonly used protocols.

Good to start understanding HTML/CSS. React part of the course - week 3 could have been explained a bit more in detail even though at the cost of increased tenure of the course. Post this course I only know what the theory is.

This was a great course! It showcased the basics of web development, even managing to teach me some Bootstrap too. However, I will say that despite the name, the focus is not solely on backend development.

Great intro to back-end development, however I felt Week 3 was a bit rushed with the Bootstrap topics. Overall, I would recommend this course to anyone looking for a quick introduction to web development.

Overall, It was good! A great start for someone who is just setting foot inside the web development community. Looking forward to take the upcoming course and dive deep into these certification program.

This intro is a gentle overview of the front end, for many like me, it is a refresher course that adds new skills to old capabilities. I look forward to diving more into the back end of development.

Do I need to learn javascript? in this professional certificate it wasn't mentioned that we need to do the front end course but in the videos it says that next lesson is javascript but it is not

Pretty good intro to HTML and CSS although with so much crammed in and relatively few exercises, the reward you get is really down to how much the individual student chooses to practice.

I found this course informative but there is one problem with this course. It is titled Introduction to Back-End Development, but mostly Front-End Technologies are introduced in this.

All it takes really is building a sound technical knowledge of how things work. And i am happy this course help in even improving my knowledge on things i knew, and things i didn't.

There is one bad moment.

In several tasks you have to guess right code. Page looks as expected, but grader has rules which are not described in task, so it get some nerver from me.

Some sort of portions could have been explained through videos like more css frameworks rather than displaying a content to read Anyway Great learning through out Thank you

Overall the course is solid, and provide a good, but broad understanding of the topic. An area that could be improved is the assignments, they feel a bit too guided and easy.

Course is good. Topics are slightly off from the intent of this course. Weeks 2-3 are mostly on HTML/CSS/Bootstrap which are more related to Front End Development.

could use some more of hands on and problem solving to solidify the learning of new concepts

less hand holding and more do it yourself and solve this problem

its an amazing course but i wish that they went more into depth and gave more examples of how things worked together and more hand on examples and practice

some typos here and there and the labs towards the end were not graded, but all in all, a great way to jump into the basics of front-end development

Very informational course for those wanting to get into web development! Could certainly improve by having more room to practice our coding skills.

Everything is well explained and will be easily understood by even people who are new to the technology world. Keep up the great work, coursera

The course was very interesting and all concepts easy to apply in real time. I highly recommend to all developers willing to keep learning.

Really informative! Felt that it could have been a little bit more hands on¯\_(ツ)_/¯ Guessing that will come later on in the Certificate.

This course is easy and suit for begginer who doesn't have any experoence as programmer. Contents included fthe basic of front-end.

Very basic course with easy assesments. Maybe even 3 stars, but I am thrilled in waiting for other courses in this Specialization

some subtitles or captions have errors such as inconsistency or slower or faster than the corresponding speech in the videos.

Great refresher and overall, a great introductory course to web development. cannot wait to get to the back-end material.
