Honestly, pretty solid course. A lot of people were saying this course isn't for beginners but I would strongly disagree. I think the difficulty is FAIR, and really gets your brain thinking logically.

The example given in each video was very helpful in understanding how things work on the internet.

Overall experience was great as it was basically about basics and introduction to web development.

I think this is a great course for people with no previous experience with web technologies. It might be helpful to create additional unguided lab exercises to help people retain what they've learned by wrestling with whatever information is new to them.

This course well organized and full of knowledge. You will understand majority of the basics in web development and how the web and the internet works even if you have not tech background.

Thanks to Meta and Coursera for delivering this amazing course.

Maybe not the best if you start from scratch because is a bit fast-paced, but makes a good job introducing a lot of the tools involved in a simple manner and how they interact with each other so you can get a general idea of how this whole thing goes.

This course is very easy to follow, may be a little too slow. Some of lab components such as "Go Live" do not work properly, and there weren't much help from the course facilitator or forum. But overall, it is good, I learned a lot. Thanks, Meta.

Modules from week 3 seems to be made for those with intermediate to upper intermediate level of coding. It is fast paced and failed to clarify some integral concepts from the beginning. Apart from this, everything else is quite well balanced.

It was a good introduction course, however there should have been more exercises and less reading sections; because reading is hard, and the reason I am taking these courses is because I have low attention span, which is a huge hurdle..

this course is just amazing. I'm just giving 4 stars because I think we should improve the simulator vs code and also offer a little more in-depth exercises to force learners to explore the different documentations in depth. Thank you

Good course, really liked it but explaining the syntax and letting the students know from where the components come

and diff type of infixes

i would suggest have more practice with hands on coding in the lab .

overall great experience

Overall, it is a good intro for front-end development. Explained the basic knowledge of web pages, web servers etc. Some HTML and CSS terms are still confusing, the teacher didn't go deep. You need to do a lot of research by yourself

Very good course. Exelent explanations. The only thing that should be improved is adding more labs and tasks to code, because it is very rewarding getting a good grade and creating something while putting your knowledge into it.

Week 2 content was quite complex and hard to understand. The 20 minutes of reading notes would've been much more useful, and easier to understand if it was made into a video format. This is regarding the CSS styling module.

To be honest, I have got lots of basic knowledge in these course which i was looking for past many days. Most of the time we get exact answers for difficult questions but not for simple one that easily. Thank you

I am glad I have taken this course. It might be easy for someone who already has knowledge. I have felt a bit challenged. The only thing I didn't like was the speech of the Meta staff. It seemed like an AI voice.

I rated this course in 4 stars because in the 2nd week of this course there is an Assignment that is to make a style sheet with the help of CSS and i make it as the Document said but it didn't pass the test.

We need more excercise, everything else is awesome thank you; just my point of view but Ican find easily excercise on the internet but I think it would be a better idea that it can be done by you.

Thanks.

Peter.

It covers major useful topics and demonstrated well with good examples. Simple and precise. Any one can learn from here. Watching videos are sufficient, should do some homework to reinforce the knowledge.

It was a good introduction, but i could use more labs and exercises. Also it would be better if they would just let us do the lab and then give us the step by step guide, so it would be more challenging.

Es un buen curso, lo tome como parte del certificado de Meta. Sin embargo siento que es demasiado basico para alguien que ya tiene conocimientos en IT. Recomiendo tomar esto en cuenta antes de tomarlo

The course itself was very well explained and a great starting point for beginners, however the inbuilt IDE wasn't broadened enough for users to write their code differently but had the same outcome

It was very fun to learn! Videos were short and easy to watch. However, I found some of the readings were hard to understand because they used terms that werent' explained in the previous lessons.

Got to know many different types of framework available which outside looked like a whole new cake, but when completed the course finally got to understand it was just a slice of a big cake
