I've been working with polars for a proof-of-concept for about three weeks. It's has been a frustrating, but good exercise. The project has been through five complete rewrites. Having gone through that experience, now is the perfect time to undertake this course to further my understanding of polars. Great fun!

Really Fantastic Course on Polars, great structure and all incompassing content! This course has helped me greatly at work where I work with Polars almost exclusively instead of Pandas.

Hey Liam, super excited for this course - became aware of you and your efforts on the Real Python Podcast - thanks so much for putting it out there - can only imagine how challenging this material is whilst the Polars codebase is moving at such a rate

So far I am blown away by how much of an improvement Polars is over Pandas. I got when Liam spoke about the capabilities of the library on the Real Python podcast and I bought the course immediately after the episode was finished. The course is well organized but many sections have no video content and some of the video content is not up to date with the notebooks (e.g. GroupBy 1). I also realize that the library is in active development, but I have gotten countless deprecation warnings throughout the course using the code that was supplied in the notebooks. Still a good course and very happy to be taking it, but not quite the 5-star experience I initially thought it was.

This was a very good introduction to Polars, and it shows how Polars has some advantages over Pandas. I appreciate the fact that the author made the material available early, even though some lectures are not yet provided for the examples and exercises.

Great introduction, I loved the bite-sized videos, but there weren't enough videos. I was looking forward to some of the sections only to find out there were no videos and just resource files.

the quickstart and overall structure have already become very clear to me. The instructor is excellent.

Polars is an exciting dataframe library. The explanation and instruction is clear and thorough, and the materials are comprehensive. Very good course.

I think this is exactly what I was looking for. It's still early, but getting the data sets and the notebooks alone is very valuable. And, in the first substantive lecture (Quickstart) I feel like I got a MUCH better understanding of Polars that just reading the online Polars documentation.

It is good that the code is in notebooks but can't we download all the files at once? Also, I could not download a few files due to an error while downloading.

A nivel general es un buen curso. El inicio es algo lento y los notebook podrían tener más explicaciones para aclarar algunos elementos, teniendo en cuenta que en muchos casos no hay videos. Así mismo, esperaba que los videos fuesen un complemento a los notebook no que cuenten básicamente lo que ya se dice en estos. Hay unos cuantos errores en los notebook que, supongo, irán corrigiendo. In general it is a good course. The beginning is somewhat slow and the notebooks could have more explanations to clarify some elements, taking into account that in many cases there are no videos. Also, I expected the videos to be a complement to the notebooks and not to basically tell what is already said in the notebooks. There are a few errors in the notebooks that, I suppose, will be corrected.

I have been using Polars since last 2 months, there are a limited number of good resources (documentations, tutorials, blogs etc etc) available as on today as it is still in active development, hopefully its community will start growing faster in near future. As there are short of learning resources for it, I have been actively asking questions on Stack overflow and communicating with Polars community members on their Discord Platform where I came to know about the one and only online course Data Analysis using Polars recently created and published by an author Liam Brannigan. Here He teaches me to How to get started with Polars for any data analysis task, how polars deals with larger volumes of data, what are the benefits in terms of performances using polars. He has taken this course till the intermediate level covering all the necessary modules. Looking forward for his advanced level of course in the future. As part of course materials he has created the Jupyter notebooks and Quizzes which are very clear and conceptual. I’m highly recommending this course to folks who would like to start their journey with Polars.
