About the Course

Do you realize that the only functionality of a web application that the user directly interacts with is through the web page? Implement it poorly and, to the user, the server-side becomes irrelevant! Today’s user expects a lot out of the web page: it has to load fast, expose the desired service, and be comfortable to view on all devices: from a desktop computers to tablets and mobile phones. In this course, we will learn the basic tools that every web page coder needs to know. We will start from the ground up by learning how to implement modern web pages with HTML and CSS. We will then advance to learning how to code our pages such that its components rearrange and resize themselves automatically based on the size of the user’s screen. You’ll be able to code up a web page that will be just as useful on a mobile phone as on a desktop computer. No “pinch and zoom” required! Last but certainly not least, we will get a thorough introduction to the most ubiquitous, popular, and incredibly powerful language of the web: Javascript. Using Javascript, you will be able to build a fully functional web application that utilizes Ajax to expose server-side functionality and data to the end user....

one of the most annoying thing to me is that most of people are using windows and it is so hard for them to understand mac even if you tried to explain it to them , also because the versions of apps which is being used in this course are so old , the up to date windows 10 versions cannot download browser sync as the node.js version in this course is so old . also the FAQ of this course is not explaining the problems very well.

You'd better learning this on Youtube if you don't really care about that certificate. The version of video are from 2015, expecially in the first modul, they uesed some very old version of software for demostation. You barely get any coding exsercise before your first coding assignment, which is terrible. The course was arranged super unreasonable.

There are a few videos that have outdated material. Many students in the discussion forums have complained about this. It is difficult to complete assignments. The students have to figure out how the tools that are used in this course work now days on their own. Please update the material for this course so we can learn better and faster.

This course is outdated and should be removed. The method of teaching is very confusing, especially during the Javascript lectures and assignments. I've seen better teaching methods on YouTube. I feel bad for people watching this and english is their second language. Definitely remove or update the content and videos.

It's about 6 years old. Outdated material, though CSS and HML isn't too bad. It's bootstrap that's lacking. The modern version of bootstrap doesn't work well with what this course teaches you. I'm sure it will be a decent beginners course once they update it. Until then, there are better ways to learn.

Unfortunately I didn't really appreaciate the teaching method that this course follows. I'd recommend you to follow a youtube guide instead of this. I was provided financial aid for this course and I wasn't able to finish it due to lack of motivation because of the bad course design.

At the beginning it looked like it was a great course, and it is but what it doesn't says on Coursera is that it is an old course, it works with old versions of softwares and during the course it was a bit hard to understand only with the information provided by the lectures.

The course is almost theoretical and does not have any sample questions for creating web pages using the parts covered in the course. It would be a lot better if for every video there is a small task of building a web page and the same for the end of the course.

The teacher is great and engaging, but I am going to have to leave this course and choose a different one because it is very outdated. The programs you need to download for this course don't exist in those same formats anymore, so this is kind of useless.

This course challenged my LOK right from the beginning. The version numbers of each of the additional programs that needed to be download where way out of whack with the instructor's version. Hence, I had difficulty setting up. Recommend an update.

Superficial look on Ajax/JS. Maybe this framework should be avoided in the course. Just to make qualitative focus on simple scripts. Frameworks and ready made libraries are useful but spoil the deep understanding of basic things, making them noizy

Non è aggiornato e tante cose con computer nuovi non si possono scaricare, mandato richiesta di supporto ma nulla, e in più non si riesce a fare l'esame obbligatorio e quindi non posso andare avanti. Vorrei un rimborso

The course needs to be updated. A lot of the functionalitiy is old. You cannot really do that much at least in terms of projects and git because it is outdated and there is now paywalls.

Few tasks, just a lot of online lectures. When you had gone through all the lectures and were finally going to start to code. You could not remember all that information.

The course seems way complicated when it's supposed to be an easy one.

The manner in which they give out information is also confusing and seems rushed.

the Course content is great and the Tutor is doing a great job but I didn't like the fact that i'm forced to use Github to submit my assignments

course is very outdated and requires you to learn heavily from FAQ. I would recommend finding a different course to start as a beginner.

O curso é bom mas está muito defasado. Conteudo de 6, 7 anos atrás. Talvez quando houver uma atualização eu volte a faze-lo

The course is missing a lot of information. It's all over the place. It is not for a beginner. Only as a refresher.

Most of the features are outdated. For a newbie it will be hard to understand this. Please update the videos.
