I learned what I wanted to learn and a little bit more. The presentation skills of Mr. White are excellent and video content is therefore not boring at all. It seems to me however, that this course is a "refactored" version of some other courses. It's totally OK, just last assignment requires to implement the things which were not covered in the video content.

This course looks bit abandoned by instructors on discussion forums. English subtitles are terrible and should be rewritten. Had to google a lot to complete assignments, faced lot of java compatibility issues, with IDE etc, but in the end I made it to the end.

Lessons were really intriguing, professor is great at teaching Java Spring.

I can definitley say I have gained more knowledge on the cloud and web applications development after I completed the course. I am from a non CS background. I have been able to understand things a lot better about web based and spring frame work based applications after the completing course.

thanks for the course.

This course has the basic acknowledge of spring boot help you build your own cloud service, but the course is too short that didn't include some advance such as spring-security, spring-message, etc. Hope professor could add more topic of this course.

Overall learning experience was great. Hard to find other online course related to spring framework of similar stature. Only complaint I have, building the project (during practical assignments) was little difficult.

the course is excellent but the subtitles on spanish is bad, this course have many error in traduction and errors in construction of the orations, thanks for sharing your skills and your knowledge

There are minor issues while setting up the starter code for both the assignments. Otherwise, the course content is very good and everything is explained properly.

Course content was very helpful to understand the basics. Thank you!

Assignments had some issues - it had some glitches.

Annotations and AWS Dynamo database instance are well taught. Thanks Dr. Jules White

I wish the course was longer and

more practice-oriented.

Contents are good but it's good for beginners only.

Its a really good course to learn spring from

Some videos from Week 4 were missing.

a good course. I would recommend it.

Nice.

The course itself i.e. the material covered is super useful. Very well taught and in nice bite-sized chunks. The assignments are also very relevant and are a nice opportunity to get the hands dirty.

But (and this is a huge but which I am sure will be in a lot of other reviews) the maintenance of the programming assignments could be a lot better. The assignments use older versions of different tools such as spring and gradle. As a result, certain things such as running the files and creating a submission become very difficult as they seem to use features which are now deprecated. The process of sorting through all this, though unintended, still had me learning a lot. It however made me take a loooot more time than I should have with the assignments. I easily spent 50% of my time fighting with the tools and the other 50% doing the assignments. The forums were however super helpful in this regard.

It would be great if the course maintainers accepted some of the pull requests on Github that would make the programming assignments run more smoothly.

I really enjoyed the course otherwise

The course explains some of the concepts of Spring and how it relates to its successor Spring Boot.

Some of the concepts that are required in the assignments are slightly mentioned in the lessons or maybe they are explained just from a theoretical point of view.

Overall is a good course that gives solid foundations to start coding in Spring Boot, even if not updated with the most recent Spring Boot versions.

The course is really very informative as to introducing us to the Spring Framework. BUT, the support is totally left to the ...students of the course! Even the examples had to be manually adapted (the build.gradle files) in order to be successfully built in Eclipse, let alone the assignments!. This is NOT the proper way when you are asking from the students to pay for the assessments/certificate.

Although videos talk about cloud services and high level cloud concepts, the assignment fails short of the same. No cloud services related assignment. But definitely a good refresher of the spring boot.

It was hard to implement second assignment, as there was no lecture for "Oauth2.0".

The course is good, but no support from teaching staff on discussions at all.

This course is super out-of-date. Also really, really boring. When I see many short videos I wondered why, why to much short videos, and the reason is, those videos are really boring It is just a guy talking , no images, no fun examples , just a guy talking. You tube videos have better production (more attractive, dynamics) and updated information.

Many errors and fatal flaws in the README prevent students from completing the assignments, especially for assignment 2 the API path for findByName & findByDurationLessThan are causing 404 errors in the test and it hasn't been addressed for a long time.

Exam questions are more difficult to answer, and later learners will have a better learning effect. There are detailed answers for reference after submission.

The videos are not well explained. They are of short duration and do not explain the topics well
