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.

They kept it simple and easy to understand. The assignments were well guided. The topics were well covered. Just wish to see some introduction topics regarding back-end development.

This course was simple. However, the content is confusing, and not correlated to assignments that you are getting through the whole process. You will understand what I'm talking about once you take python and javascript. You will spend too much time trying to figure out how to solve something that was purely explained in the videos and lectures. Also, assignments, requirements, and comments in the assignments are confusing and they throw you off later in the course (javscript and python). My advice is to take some other courses that are basic, and with better content, or you will lose a lot of time trying to figure out what to do, and their comments are throwing you off. This is for people that have experience with python and javascript. I am highly disappointed with the course overall!

Here's my impression of this course: "In this module you will learn about paintings. A painting is a visual depiction of a concrete or abstract object, represented on a two-dimensional surface with oil, acrylic, or water-based paints. You will now have the opportunity to practice making paintings: color all the number 1's with blue and all the number 2's with red. You have now learned how to paint and have developed the skills and abilities necessary to present and exhibit your work in museums. You are on your way to becoming a Dutch Master." Only slightly better than useless. One gets the impression that this course was developed by someone who has never had to teach anyone anything.

The specialization "Meta Back-End Developer Professional Certificate" contains peer-graded assignments, which get stuck at "Grading in progress" and the course cannot be completed!

I signed up for an Introduction to Back End Development course, however this course was for INTRODUCTION TO WEB DEVELOPMENT and had a focus on front end development.
