Excellent course covering meteor fundamentals. Reasonably challenging final assignment especially if you take on the extra features. Instructor was clear and concise. Loved it!

It's exactly what it says it is. A basic introduction to meteorJS framework. Although meteor is moving at a fast pace, this course ... doesn't. It teaches a slightly older version of it.

The most valuable course in the specialization by far. The first two were pretty good too, but kind of too easy for me.
