Backend web development with Django 2 - Build 8 projects (Udemy.com)

This class indeed gives me a clear view of how django works. It's a great class for beginners and I'll recommend to my friends who are interested. However, the repetitive works in the video really disappoints me, cuz it lags my learning speed so much. And I strongly recommend you to briefly explain django built-in objects immediately after them being mentioned in the video. Sometimes checking documentation interrupts my learning flow. In general, the class is well worth.

Good course to start with Django, Especially the first 4 projects, where we create projects and layout the structures multiple times. Repetition is the key to master it. By the end of project 4, you would be pretty confident and comfortable about creating simple static websites using Django. However, I took 1 star off, because from project 5 (Form project), the instruction began to lose focus and clarity. Finally I got another Django course from Jose Portilla to understand Form and other intermediate topics with ease. Great course to get your feet wet. (Probably more than that). I will update my review when and if the instructor improve the Form topic and beyond.

The good part is that I was looking for a course with many projects, to get into a routine for building projects with Django. This course met my expectations in that respect and was very helpful. I would recommend it to others who are looking for more practice with Django. The part that could be improved is the unnecessary talking ('totally my bad, my mistake there, this is totally OK' etc.). It is not necessary to continuously fill up the time by talking. Sometimes it is confusing because things are referred to that are not discussed any further- better to not mention them if the course does not go into it. Also, if an assignment is given, some attention should be given to this assignment and the expected results.

After learning Python, it was hard to get a grasp on Django, for me. Much of what is possible with Django seems too easy, there are dozens of different ways to achieve the same goals, and I was second-guessing everything I learned. This course helped me simplify and reinforce what I'd already learned, and I'm sure that it would have been a great starting point had I just begun here. 10/10 recommend!

Pros: there are some good aspects about this course, the very general outline provides a good starting point for a Django beginner, and the focus on making CRUD apps is also a sensible starting point. Cons: While the instructor gets many of the basics right, the course is unfortunately hampered by the instructors poor English language skills, and his inability to really explain many of the key Django concepts and mechanics. Many of the templates are outdated and do not work. The instructor is not responsive to questions. Further, certain concepts are not thoroughly explained, and there are several gaps that the student is required to figure out themselves.

Absolutely wonderful!!! Great for beginners!!! The course is going smoothly and he explains every concept in an easy to understand language before moving into the next one. In fact, the pace of the course is so perfect, I did not realize that I had learnt so much about Django before he asked to pause the video and do an exercise. I was able to troubleshoot errors on my own!!!

When I started this course I knew nothing about backend development, and the company I work for uses django for backend development. This is an amazing course for absolute beginners in Django because the instructor is engaging and makes you part of the project. He would make some silly mistakes at some point, like typing incorrectly or forgetting the words he uses to name some strings, which is understandable. He made sure he repeats everything so that you can have more understanding. Sometimes I would be puzzled and when he repeats the exercise everything becomes clear. Overall I would say if you are a beginner to Django or you want to remind yourself this is the course for you.

It was a good journey, following the tutorials was a enlightening experience and help me to understand the basics of django 2.0+, it's valid for the latest version of django currently This would be even better if the front end was covered too.

Thanks a lot for this course! Clear informations from 0 to more complex apps. I'm a beginner in Django and python as well so for me it was exactly what I needed to see and try to code to understand how it works. You have absolutely lovely style so yeah I'd really like to see new courses from you !!!

I like the course and the instructor, but as I am a completely new to django, I need more simple course to start. But I pretty sure the instructor is very experienced and he knows the subject well. I really enjoyed the course and recommend it for others.
