This is a pretty good course, but there are several major flaws. First, the instructor does not seem to have thought through some of the tasks. The way he has set up the data structure will not work as intended, and he does not seem to realize that his instructions are not going to work. For example, he instructs us to add a list component to the detail page that will list all previous reviews of a given book. He instructs us to create a filter for this list so that only the reviews for that title will appear on a particular book's page. However, he hard codes one book's title into the filter criteria. This means that every book's detail page will list the reviews for that same book that was hard coded into the filter. The filter criteria needs to be written dynamically so that it matches the title of whichever book's page the user is viewing. In order to do this, the filter criteria should reference the cell value of the title column in that book's row in the spreadsheet. I am too new to Glide to know whether this is possible in Glide, but if it isn't, then that filter feature is pretty useless. There is a similar problem with the way the instructor sets up the "My List" feature. He set up the data structure with one ListAdd column in the Books spreadsheet. This means that when any user adds the book to their list (i.e., sets that book's ListAdd value to true), then it will be true for ALL users. Every user will see that book in their list. If another user then removes that book from their list, the book's ListAdd value becomes false for ALL users. The book will be removed from everyone's lists. This My List feature would be better accomplished by creating a separate sheet, perhaps called UserLists, that would capture the user's email and the title of the book they add to their list. Then the My List feature in the app would list books from the UserLists sheet filtered by user email. Also, if this were going to be a real-world app, then the books need more than just a title to identify them because multiple books can have the same title. They need a unique identifier, such as the ISBN.

I also could not use the Rhyme platform. The virtual desktop would not allow me to have more than one window open, so I could not switch between incognito and regular Chrome tabs. I also was not able to minimize Chrome to get to the actual virtual desktop. The window for the virtual workspace was too small to be useful. If you don't have a fairly large monitor, then you will have trouble with it.

The quiz grading also needs to be reviewed to ensure it marks answers correctly.

This course is out of date. The Glide website has changed format quite a bit and I spent more time searching for where the feature being described is currently located, than watching the tutorial. It got so frustrating that I did not finish the course.

The instrutor was fine. No complaints about the way he explained things, although the sound quality could have been better. It just wasn't worth having to figure out the Glide funtionality myself. If I decide to keep using Glide, I will look for more up-to-date resources.

This was a really good course. But a few things made it difficult for me. I tried using closed captions because some things aren't in the same spot on the site or even called the same. So it took longer to figure out where I needed to click and do work. The formula is complicated and could have been put on the screen for a few frames when we pause to get a clear look at what to type. Another frustration was having to go back and forth between screens to see what to do and then do my work. But again, after figuring out how the two screens were laid out differently and where to find the new version. It honestly took me almost 4 hours to complete and I only kept pushing because I really wanted to learn how to use this software. If the captions were better, I guess watching on a tablet while working on the computer would work, but I tried this course because of the split screen option.

Overall this was a good introduction to the Glide app building interface, but the outdated nature of the version the teacher used meant it took more time to find the corresponding features, and thus longer to complete the project. Further, sound quality and background noises were not the quality I expected/hoped for with a Coursera course. The instructor was decent. I don't think English is the native tongue of the teacher. He is certainly fluent and capable, but the accent and sound quality combo might be a bit too much for some. I had to turn my sound all the way up and eventually switch to headphones to catch what he was saying. Perhaps younger ears won't have this issue.

Do not waste your time. It was probably fine when created, does not work now. The primary problem is that this is an old course and in order for you to do this project, you would need to pay for a $60/month Glide Maker level account to have it work. I only realized this after investing entirely too many hours trying to get the Google Cloud Workspace to play nicely - which it never quite did as promised - no resources folder appearing for example, though I had found and downloaded the resource links anyway. But wasn't worth it because then I ran into the issue with Sheets and an inability to sync data. The entire Glide interface also has been reworked, so a key moment is supposed to show how you start with a G Sheet to begin the process of app creation and this is no long an available option. Instead, you have to import your G Sheet data, and as I've mentioned, as a result, this is not live data, cannot sync with user actions.

Thicuorses very useful for me and some queries are also some video are not availableinthia media so request to available to learn the video . it is useful for increasingmy knowledge, and skill

I was a bit overwhelmed with the new information, never used google sheets; should have brushed up on that first, but with practice I am confident I would be able to create my first app

A very fun project - I never knew making a simple app could be this easy!

This is an amazing app to deliver a knowledge to us and help out

Very simple and easily understandable.

This course is helpful for me.

Thanks

This class was very helpful for me learning the basics of Glide. I was struggling to understand how to work Glide. I would love it if you build on this course with an intermediate course to help with things like the specialty columns such as relations and lookup. My only issue is that I don't think the final exam was correctly graded. I'm pretty sure of the two answers I got wrong, given the options presented. Thank you.

Training was great, the website used has changed much of the user interface and following along was strained.

Guideline could be more understandable

the information provided was very helpful but the tools are different than showing in the course... so for a person that is not use to build apps wont find the options presented in the course. please update the video of the course.

the website we used in cloud workspace is newer and updated , looks and elments are diffrent from the instructors videos which made it difficult to apply the steps explained in the videos

it was tough though in understanding

This course is amazing. It provided me an opportunity to do what I love. I was looking for a way to built apps but I didn't know how to code. This course was a great help.

This Course Helps to those Individual or Companies who wants to manage their work through App, And no need to write code to develop an interactive app

Was Easy,fun and Skillful .... Even the project was very informative and understandable for someone who even knows how to use a computer....Enjoy it!

Other than some weird background noise distortion from the professor's side, I loved this course very much, and learned how to build an app in Glide

It was a great learning experience where i have been abled to learn to how to unlock your creativity using glides to make app

It is an amazing course, I learned a lot, I cannot believe how useful this could be for different fields of knowledge.

Awesome course opened insights many thanks . hope you do more project guided courses in relation to this. Thanks.

This was a great course for no coding Mobile App on Glide. He made it seem very interesting. Thank you Angelo.
