I liked the sections up until Module 2. The content was clear and helpful, especially the module about JDBC. BUT №1: The graded lab in Module 2 has a technical issue in the starter code. Support doesn't respond, and none of the course staff have fixed the problem. Many students face the same issue, such as: testTablesExist: Expected 'customers' table to exist, but it was not found. I noticed that some of these issues were reported on discussions over 6 months ago and still haven’t been addressed. :( The graded lab in Module 3 has a similar issue: testDatabaseConnection: java.lang.RuntimeException: java.util.concurrent.ExecutionException: java.lang.IllegalStateException: Location is not set. Fortunately, I was able to fix this one myself. BUT №2: JavaFX is not really relevant anymore. I haven’t seen it listed as a requirement in any job postings on LinkedIn. It would be much more useful to focus on technologies that are actually used in the industry, like Spring, Spring Boot, etc. I hope this course gets updated in the future, because the previous ones were significantly better!

not usefull support when platform can't submit your assigment

The SQL part was clear, but the JavaFx was so chaotic, like the teachers don't get what this course is and what they should teach. The tasks have a lot of errors, what came from the database side, what we can't fixing due to restrictions. The JavaFx is outdated technology anyway, so I don't know why should you guys teach it.

noticed some errors between the supplied code and the instructions, causing some confusion. time spent on rectifying the error when i should be able to just think about the code solution.

At some parts the quality of labs is ustable: somewhere environment is not correctly set up, somewhere you just have to uncomment ready-baked pieces of code, some tests provide questions answers to which were completely missed in the previous theory and so on.

In the last module of this course, in the project there is a connectivity error in when attempting the database connection using sql tools in the vscode.

JavaFX module is a bit confusing, but overall a good course

This course is really helpful for Junior Software Developer who just start your Web development career. It covers all foundations a web developer need to work on his/her career. You will have good experiences with both theories and hands-on lab assignment that you can test everything after lectures. Recommended courses in Coursera!!!

The journey was amazing and I have learned a lots of thing . learned about problem solving . its never coding its how you think to solve the problem

Nice course, the video lectures & Notes gives good knowledge & hands on Labs gives more confidence to us Students.

Objective directions. Good quality materials and hands-on labs.

Great course!

lab assignment is very hard to complete
