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

Found it useful for a refresher. Not sure it would be the best starting point for a complete beginner, tbh.

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.
