This course helped me lay the foundation of learning Kotlin which I always wanted to learn in way that i was very much expecting.
TLDR: good content, good instructor, bad pacing towards the end, bad typos, really bad final project and grading system This course is my first letdown of the specialization. There are the classic typos and quiz errors that have been present in the Meta courses, but the information is still good. It encompasses the main UI elements needed to build slightly more complicated Android UI with Compose. There is no XML. But the need to break the videos into something more colorful is noted here.
There is so much information provided and while some information has mini exercises provided, not all do and the quality becomes laughable towards the end. The final project was too simple and allowed for no creativity in incorporating what was learned. It was code by numbers. Not to mention that this course is not highly transited, so you'll be waiting for a classmate to grade your zip file upload, which most peers only upload empty word files(why is there no file checker?).
