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

The React Basics course is an excellent intro for beginners. It covers key concepts like components, JSX, and state with hands-on projects. A great foundation for anyone starting with React!

Too much reading with not-so-in-depth new terminology explaination. ChatGPT even did a better job in explaining everthing.

Good course, but the peer review stuff at the end is utter shite

Cons: - Content is too thin, difficulty is too easy, labs are effortless, trivial and unchallenging while they also hand-hold you all the way. - The way curriculum is spread out does not make sense, you get 1 video and 0 practice opportunities on Context API and almost an entire week, including a lab, of teaching you how to set a relative path for an asset. - Capstone calculator project in week 4 has most of the code prewritten, I completed and submitted the project in 5-10 minutes. Took me more to read the instructions. It's so trivial that you could not add it to a portfolio even if you wrote it from scratch, and imagine they also wrote most of it for you and left you comments, examples and instructions to finish it. Useless. Gave it 2 stars because its not worth 1, but its super dissapointing. Hoping for better in the Advanced React course.

It was all over the place. Some of your videos are great especially the hands-on ones with the Eastern-European fellow! UK fellow's video on the other hand were BAD! It is as if he is some Facebook AI! It is so ROBOTIC! Make it simple and get to the POINT!!!!

Not hands-on enough for my taste. There is a lot of theory, but you don't learn the skills really. Moreover, the coding videos that are there, are unbearable: is this meant for blind people? Don't tell me what I can see on the screen, explain why!

great course for beginners. Your fundamental on react will be cover after completing this course you can learn some advance topic and you can build some projects.

Below expectation. Provided by Meta, but the course is poor including the lab. 2 minutes tutorial video also need summary?!!!

In my opinion its pretty crazy, that you don't even include typescript even though it's considered best practice now

It doesn't give any practical knowledge, as well as the "JavaScript" course in the same specification.

Terrible course. The presenter reads from a text like a robot, going very fast through some fundamental elements of coding with React. If you want to learn, then you better use reading sources and be an autodidact, since the videos are simply a waste of time that one needs to go through in order to finish the course. It's a shame that so little thought was given to such an important tool, by whoever designed this terrible course.

Quality declined in comparison to the starter courses, probably because at this point you're already paying money. The peer review aspect is vulnerable to fault and accusations, if someone spiteful or a troll rates you terribly then thats it and you have to deal with it. This is really not worth the money nor the time or frustration.

Absolutely terrible. Wasting time telling me how the industry uses React. Spent 15 minutes and have not built anything with the tool. Just TALK TALK TALK TALK with no interaction. You'll feel like you've spend a huge amount of time listening and learning barely anything. Waste of time. Do not do this.

Badly taught course. Not enough focus on practical/projects, the only practical is watching somebody else code, or very basic items with step by step instructions. where it has mostly been done for you already anyway and so testing of any knowledge. Final project was a joke

I was totally unsatisfied with peer grading assignment, because I have submitted a few times, and still didn't get enought points to pass it, people don't understand that seriousness of it, they just put points less than the project deserved, even if it works !!

Not good one, particularly for beginners. Ambiguous questions, incorrect programming concepts, non-standard terminology and things like that would even mislead beginners. Looks the tutors are good developers but not good teachers.

Feels like a bunch of information inserted without any order, state and hook are the core of React, yet weren't covered or explained enough!
