Very high-level intro to front-end development which is exactly what I needed. However, I hate that it is AI generated. It lacks a soul as is disorienting at times. Still 4/5 overall.

I really enjoyed this course. The practice was great. I was blown away by the ability to code within the course, rather than by download. I did download the IDE to practice on my own.
