I really appreciated the description of the concepts. The delivery was impeccable! I would only request more coding assignments with higher complexity, but that just might be for the next section :D

Described the basics at the right level and much understandable content. Good coding labs. cons: labs sometimes didnt work properly & subtitles in some videos are updated like the videos.

The course content was well-organized and covered essential topics like JSX, components, state, and props in a clear and concise manner. The video lectures were engaging, and the instructors did a great job of breaking down complex concepts into digestible explanations.

One aspect that I appreciated was the hands-on approach to the course. Each module included coding exercises and assignments that allowed me to apply what I had learned. The assignments gradually increased in complexity, which helped me build confidence in my React skills.

The course also included a final project where I had to build a small Calculator React application from scratch. This project-based approach was incredibly beneficial as it allowed me to tie together all the concepts I had learned throughout the course. It was a rewarding experience to see my application come to life.

The course community on Coursera was active and supportive. The discussion forums were a great place to ask questions and interact with fellow learners. Additionally, the course materials were supplemented with additional resources and readings, which I found helpful for diving deeper into specific topics.

The course was good for teaching me the basics, but around the end, there were several inconsistencies regarding the subtitles, the ungraded labs, and even the final project. Also, these happened at hard-to-understand places. Also, I feel like the final project was way too basic for what we learned and we didn't have to research and fix the bugs. They just gave us what we needed to complete the final project. But on the bright side of things, the course was easy to follow. It was built well. There were several places and exercises to practice what we learned and multiple questions as well. Huge kudos to the Coursera Coach he helped review every subject and understand the concepts more deeply.

- Let's discuss positive points, the way how coursera organized the course is great. You can view vided and along-with that you can read script. It's helpful specially for people who have difficulty in understanding us accent of English. - Course is designed in manner, you can understand concepts easily. - Let's discuss concerns, I think content editors must check script and video, Like I faced once where script underneath of video was completed, but videos was 30% remaining. - Please also check whatever content is shared, is compatible with current running version of React.

El curso es muy completo, entretenido y dinámico como acostumbra a ser en Coursera. Sin embargo, se invierte demasiado tiempo en explicar conceptos básicos de programación o de JS, que no tienen nada que ver con React. Como desarrollador experimentado, se hace aburrido en varios momentos. Además, los ejercicios están bastante descuidados, con erratas, pasos que ya vienen resueltos en el lab, etc...

You need to read all the extra material to understand the concepts more. The videos only give you an outline and need to show not only more code but point out where you are talking about. React is new to me so for others it might be ok but for a complete beginner I think it could have been more showing with code and less listening to the instructor just talking about it .

Overall, It is very good course to clear basics of React. I would suggest to the mentors of the course to provide more in-depth knowledge on few topics such as "Context". I found little bit confusing when I see "Context" video and found mentors were just showing the code instead of provide knowledge to the audience why they have created certain functions.

The course was good. I would just like it if the labs were a bit more explorative if feels like the instructions are too detailed. The instructions should not be so detailed instead it should present a small challenge to the student. If he/she is unable to complete it then they can refer to the detailed solution that's available.

Was quite a good course. It covered many basic topics but the only problem faced during the course was that the topic of "STATES" was not explained properly at the time it should be explained but at last it gets cleared as programmers have the habit of googling the things for understanding each topic properly.

This course does a fine job introducing you to the very basics of the React library. As pretty much all the other courses however, this one could use more practical tasks. The final graded assessment is too small and easy, and does require you to only utilize a fraction of gained knowledge and skills.

My labs failed in a couple of places. Still not sure why and I have received any answers to the message I sent in. Also the instructions on the peer reviewed assignment need to be clarified. The grading is rigid to the example and a couple of submissions I reviewed went way past the simple calculator.

Course is very good. Goes over the basics, clearly and hand-on section are actually very helpful and practical. You will learn a lot from this course, hence I heavily recommend. Final Project could be a bit more complex though

The coach/narrator needs to take communication classes. He speaks like a robot. In some places there was information overload so it was difficult to grasp those completely new concepts all at once. Everything else was fine.

Bastante didático e objetivo. Acredito que pode melhorar apenas na avaliação final, pois no momento são estudantes avaliando outros estudantes, o que compromete a metodologia e atrasa a emissão de certificado.

that's a great course full of information! the missing star is because the labs are very easy and instructions answers the lab so that you can finish the lab even when you don't understand anything!

good review of the basics in react. hands-on practices need work. some lectures (context API and ref hooks for example) barely explain the topic but the video says "In this video, we LEARNT ..."

The course was engaging and insightful, though it frustrated me in many ways; both concerning glitches with my lab instance, as well as areas in the course where the instructor taught shabbily.

My only concern is the lecturer in this course. Most of the time, I got the impression that he was just talking like a robot with no teaching skills. instead, the course content is excellent.

Abarca todos los conocimientos importantes excelentemente explicado. Me hubiese gustado que expliquen mas a fondo hooks. pero con lo enseñado es suficiente para tener una base. Gracias!

It does what it has to do. Basics only. If you wan to be proficient in React, you do need more practice. Giving 4 stars since the state part should be explained in more detail.

The contents are great. The only problem is that there are so many things to remember, and some small details are not explained. But I enjoyed the course. Thank you so much.

Well constructed lessons, mostly. Excellent labs that guided without giving it all away. Tons of useful knowledge I can see putting to use for a job.

Very good course to start in the world of React, they explain in detail the concepts that must be known to have a solid foundation of this library.
