Excelent course!

Absolutely the best front-end course I have seen so far. Incredibly clear, even though it teachs the most important concepts that even many practitioners do not know so well.

The name of the course is "Introduction to Back-End Development" but to me, I think it's more front-end focused with HTML, CSS, and Javascript. The React lessons are more related to the back-end but there're not enough knowledges and information. Furthermore, it would be better if Meta and Coursera can include source code to make it easier for students following along.

The course title is misleading. All of the course content is on front-end web development, and even the titles and descriptions on the last week refer to the course as "Introduction to Web Development". As a front-end web development standpoint the course content would be a fine introduction to HTML, CSS, Bootstrap, and React, but it is not what was advertised.

This course has helped me to understand the basics of frontend and backend more clearly. It is designed in a such way that topics are so much relevant, important & helpful. Beginner friendly & assignments are properly balanced. An industry-standard course that boosts up the skills.

This course is a nice introduction to Front-End development with a discussion on the Back-End workings of the web. It goes through topics quickly but explains the techno-babble well enough. No IDE is required since the course utilizes an online Visual Studio Code for the labs.

Nice foundation. At time extremely complicated concepts were glossed over and I don't know if I really retained or grasped them but still appreciated the variation in labs, reading and video instruction. As someone who learns by doing would labs.

Pretty good course, but i thought it sent us a lot of information very quickly, this can be kinda hard to someone new at programming, and the subtitles were wrong, what made it harder for me as a non english native to understand fully.

For me, it wasn't so informative, but it definitely helped with understanding the HTTP request and how internet works. Moreover, basic Knowledge in frontend part and the libraries used for styling (e.g., Bootstrap, React)

i must give 3 stars cause the subtitles in at least 7-8 videos are not well synchronized. this create a lot of difficulties for non native english speakers.
