It was a decent course overall. Some parts moved a bit fast for me, but the core concepts were explained well. Good for a foundational understanding.

It's a good course if you have some prior knowledge. For absolute beginners, some concepts might be a bit challenging. The structure is logical, though.

It's a solid course. The structure is logical and most of the examples were helpful. Could use a few more real-world scenarios though.

It provides a good starting point. My main issue was with the clarity of a couple of the later modules.
