When javascript entered the picture, I became confused. There's nowhere to download the .js file that the instructor created. I went to the end of the course to download the source files and it would not give me access to the google drive.
Very disappointed, I am not sure I can continue since the javascript is essential to the navigation. I will try to get a magnifying glass to see the code on the screen and re-type it in my .js file.
:(

With this course, you will walk through building a fairly decent website. You'll leave with a pretty good understanding of the topic. I could see what the instructor was doing and got a better understanding by following along with the website:

Full source code for the project is provided at the bottom of the course.

A little hard to understand, and seems to be brushing over alot of the concepts.

Much repetition. Does not explain the Google material design principles. Instead, just mentioning class name usage, without explanation how those classes interact.
I would like to know, why class names are grouped by '--' dash dash and '__' underscores. So I can guess / predict class names.
I like references to external sites for more details. Where can I read more info on 'mdl-card' for example. Or MDL, etc.
I was triggered to this course of the Cordova aspect, which was very basic. I try to follow the steps to use Cordova, but it failed because I didn't have Android SDK.
The course has potential, but need to grow.

The tutorial was good! Some of the code did not quite work out when I was following it but, since there was a download of the full site at the end of the tutorial, I was able to debug and get it working.

It is a basic MDL course. Before taking this class, have a little knowledge of JavaScript and CSS. Then, it will help you to complete the course. Overall, it is a good class.
