Great content, great app. Bugs - the video player cuts audio when I fast forward sometimes. And, in dark mode, this review box that I’m writing in on the app has white text on a white background, making it extremely hard to see.

The browser player version is much better in resizing the content. The only “Win” for the App is the ability to download the course for offline viewing when traveling overseas.

I thought this was a great course. I had some prior knowledge of ruby going into the course, but this course helped embed what I had already learned. Compared to other courses where I have found that the instructor will talk too fast or jump between explanations, Huw takes time to explain things in an easy to understand and calm manner. I enjoyed this course, worth every penny. Now onto the Advanced Ruby Programming: 10 Steps to Mastery!

Outstanding course materials + book with excellent video... highly professional. This is probably one of the best courses on RUBY (or any programming language) out right now. Very understandable - and the pdf book is an excellent resource!
