Lecture videos were broken into small parts whereby it's easy to understand and digest. Assessment given were relevant to what was taught for each segment. Navigating around course contents were easy.

Good course, but a little bit easy for programmers who have experience in other programming languages.

Better to add more challenging assignments. :)
