Clear and effective, however, am completely new to web design with no prior experiences. Maybe a bit more of a breakdown on what each application/software is used for, and where to find it. Especially if on PC vs Mac. :)

The website you create won't look like it was created in 2016, but that's a minor flaw. When starting to create websites, it's important to have a solid foundation in three languages of front-end development. This also means being up-to-date with the latest developments. I'm mentioning it because the instructor opted for using floats and finicky calculations to position various parts of the website instead of using flexbox/grid or Bootstrap. Finally, there was structure and a goal throughout the lessons although some of them were made for correcting mistakes of the previous ones. I still think using jQuery without teaching how JavaScript works is useless in the long run.

It s a good course, with lots of information but without previous background in html and css, you can't understand and can t follow the course.

Good course but it doesn't explain contents from scratch and assume you know the basics of CSS and HTML.

I got to lean many new stuff and am finally able to use Html nicely. Their was this jquery part after the navigation bar console which i didn't understand at all except for that the course was fun.

El instructor podría dar explicaciones del "porqué" utiliza o no ciertos selectores o elementos de los lenguajes, de resto, todo bien. Gracias.

I wouldn't recommend this course to anyone who is a total beginner with no idea about the web. No in-depth explanations about the languages, was just writing the codes, without the meaning of what he put together

It is an excellent course, however the instructor does move through the content quite quickly. If one is not ready to scroll the videos back frequently then it is quite likely that they would get lost quickly. The content is comprehensive for the most part. Although I must admit that I took an html and css course prior to completing this one and it was a great aid as there were things explained in the other courses that were not explained in this one. All in all this course was worth the time invested.

Well explained but I had trouble with jquery. I love web design. I keep hearing from other people that there's no point in pursuing it because you can get a website made easily from sites like Wix. Hope that's not the case; looks to be an awesome career.
