This was a good introduction. The structure is logical, and it covers the basics effectively. Might be too introductory for advanced learners.

Helpful material. The structure was logical for the most part. Might not be for absolute beginners though.

Hmm, I'm not sure this is for absolute beginners. It assumes a bit of prior knowledge that wasn't explicitly taught. Some examples were confusing.

Decent introduction. The structure was logical, but I wish there had been more hands-on practice beyond the basic examples.

Solid course. It provided a good foundation. I'd prefer if some of the later modules had more challenging tasks, though.

A good introduction. The structure was mostly clear, but I wish there were a few more real-world examples. Still, learned a lot.
