Not enough practice exercises for developing websites. The course would be much better and more knowledgeable if it is backed by tons of practice exercises(ungraded labs) tasking the learner with making the webpages.

Great course. Exercises could be more challenging though. Too many times it is just a copy/waste of a bit of code given in the instructions or just modifying some text, for example the final project.

Some parts of the modules feel like there is information missing, or you should know more than you actually do. Otherwise very good and informative course.

Overall good course and learned a lot. Some of the video explanations could have been a bit more simplified, but the study documentation made up for it..

Good material, but the JavaScript section is a little outdated. With ES6 let and const are now preferred over var.

JavaScript portion could be improved by adding more examples on implementing javascript on webpages

A lot of wordy theory and slides, but it all works towards a very nice final project

Seems to be well designed, covering a lot of ground for an introductory course.

This course has lots of information but it is very general. It is not detailed enough for a complete beginner to understand what each part of a code stands for, or what a particular method is for, or why using one method but not the other when both could work (I had to try out myself to figure out that actually, both could be used). The HTML and CSS are less complicated and I could review the videos and labs repeatedly to figure out most things myself. However, JS is very complex and you really have to understand the very basic before learning the videos. It took me 30 mins to learn and understand what a 5 mins video is talking about as I had to constantly Googling. But that's fine, that's the journey of learning. However, what confused me so much and made me feel that I've actually learned nothing is the lab practice. When a method is used, there is very little explanation of why. Why use const instead var out of a sudden, is a particular phrase a specific function or it is customised wording for the writer to refer to, why use a name that has not been mentioned and it could work, I had no clue. I had to Google the elements to understand what they meant but I still didn't know why it was used in the lab. Unfortunately, I'm stuck at JS and unable to proceed to the next course.

The course is good and I learned a lot, but there are some things I must address. Firstly, there are plenty of typos all throughout the course. This is a minor distraction, but it's still surprising considering the global brand name attached to the course. Secondly, the sections on JavaScript feel incredibly challenging to grasp for a first-timer. Perhaps it would be better if the information was simplified a little more for the sake of helping first-timers to digest it more effectively. Lastly, the inclusion of industry experts was a great one. Most of the experts were insightful, and it was obvious they knew what they were talking about. But certain experts were hard to understand and were clearly reading off generic scripts that weren't helpful at all.

These courses could definitely use a refresh to make them more interactive and beginner-friendly. Currently, they feel a bit like a death-by-PPT session—very dry and packed with jargon that might leave new learners feeling overwhelmed. To really engage students, I’d recommend incorporating more interactive elements—maybe some fun games or a modern approach to teaching code. Let’s make learning less of a snooze fest and more of a code-fueled adventure! 😴💻.

There is a good deal of useful info in this course, but the JavaScript section is really a lecture. It is difficult to understand unless you have a programming background. I have some programming experience, but still was forced to stop the video many times and do outside research to understand the materials. A module explaining the basic structure of JavaScript would have been helpful.

Nice for HTML, nice and the lessons for css but you can not learn javascript in just one unit.I would prefer more lessons about javascript and also more readable units because cover everything very fast so you have no time to exercise.Also the lab was broken every time.

The content is excellent, but the final project (Module 4) shouldn't be a third-party person qualifiable.

Debería ser más práctico y no tan teorico hay muchas partes difíciles de entender solo teóricamente.
