The example given in each video was very helpful in understanding how things work on the internet.

Overall experience was great as it was basically about basics and introduction to web development.

Honestly, pretty solid course. A lot of people were saying this course isn't for beginners but I would strongly disagree. I think the difficulty is FAIR, and really gets your brain thinking logically.

I have to admit, this course, and hopefully by extension the whole Front End program, is very well designed and thought out. I have tried to develop skills using other course providers, but they were never as well organized as this seems to be. My one suggestion would be to increase the amount of hands on programming exercises, as you can never get enough practice!

4.5/5

This course does a great job of giving a none technical person an introduction. Some concepts could have used more attention but that might be more than the average user could manage. Overall a great intro but if you want a really solid base I would recommend reading the Amazon books listed in the course content along with other materials.

This is a wonderful course, made with soul. This is a wonderful story in simple words about complex topics. Huge thanks to the amazing creators and Meta Corporation. I am a refugee from Ukraine studying to find a job and this course has been a huge support for me and my family during a difficult time after russia's dastardly attack on Ukraine.

For someone with previous experience, this provided a good refresher into the concepts of HTML, CSS and Javascript.

I really liked the lessons that provided extra content such as how the internet works and the intro to React.

I would like for the labs to be abit less prescriptive but I assume this is to allow the automated scoring system.

The design of the course, and the fact that it is broken down into smaller pieces, makes it easy to digest. It is also much easier to follow than some of the other developer courses. This has been my best experience by far! Very clear instructions, great examples, great visuals, it didn't feel rushed... it was a perfect class!

It was a great introduction. Does not overwhelms a beginner. One suggestion is to add one more lab assessment for working with forms and all its's basic input types. That's the only thing that was not reinforced in this course. Also, Additional resources are too much to go through. Consider reducing them. Had a lot of fun!

A course that is easy to follow and clearly doesn't forget that it is tailored for absolute beginners. It gives you a good taste of just some of the capabilities when using HTML, CSS and Javascript alongside its many libraries.

It acts as an amazing leap-pad in starting your journey in the world of Front-End Development.

This course is very informative, giving you a view of what is needed to become a front-end developer. Not only does it have instructional videos (for those who are visual learners), it gives you resources to use for future endeavors. Utilizing these resources, I found it very easy to complete the hands-on projects.

To me this is a first professional course on any platform ever. I've done one CS50 about how the technologies work under the hood and I loved that. This course is also similar experience for me. Thanks again Meta for making this awesome course for the newbies like us who can't pay a lot of money for the Bootcamps.

I have followed some other courses, but this one had more in less time. 100% worth it. What I like about this course is that it offers a complete overview of what we must study to reach the end goal. I've been wondering what to do, and this course solved that issue. Thanks to all the Meta staff who worked on this.

I would say this course is very well done.

What I have found particularly great is that by the end of the course you not only have a basic understanding of FE Web Development but are able to make a basic website using Boostrap and even React.

Compliments to Meta and all tutors inolved in this spcialisation.

The courses are typically divided into modules, with each module covering a specific topic or concept. Students will be introduced to the basics of web development, including how to structure web pages using HTML, style web pages with CSS, and create dynamic and interactive web applications using JavaScript.
