TOP REVIEWS FROM IOS APP DEVELOPMENT BASICS
I enjoyed how concise the videos were, there was a lot of information per unit of time, and it was challenging, but not too much so.
Needs Improvement. Lecture and associated staff should participate more in the discussion forums.
Great course!, really learnt a lot out of it. hope that you guys switch to swift 3 on time.
The optional part of the assignment could use more support as it requires a lot of new concepts to do right.
