Beginner API development in Node, Express, ES6, & MongoDB (Udemy.com)

This course is quite difficult but it does exaclty what is says on the tin, it is also a bit outdated but that's fine, it got me where I wanted to be and google is also your friend, Brad is an amazing teacher if your objective is to learn, I didn't complete the course as I only required the node.js section and I am now working on his Node.js Masterclass

this is a beginner API dev class right? it sure did not feel like that and one is left to debug their own error

Developing dev application.

I was so eager to start this course b/c there aren't many node rest api courses w/ mongo. I was happy with the example and basic JS tutorial. However, setting up the skeleton section is where is went south for me. Jack isn't teaching, he's coding while you watch and not explaining what he's writing or why he's doing it that way. There is so much that wasn't covered the in the JS basics. Then, way too many dependancies. If any of those packages fail b/c of system or package conflicts, then the whole rest of the course is ruined and useless (which happened to me). Lastly, it was so painful to watch Jack setup the package file for those dependancies. Next time, provide the file and move on. Needless to say, I was not able to complete the course.

Yes ,it is really a good match.I really enjoyed learning from this training.
It will definitely help me developing small API's.

Very practical course, well explained and well structured. I recommand it !

So far so good. I am running it on Windows 10 64-bit OS. In order to install packages, I had to run Atom as an admin. They were failing without it with some convoluted errors. There is no communication with the teacher. I am running in a lot of problems that I had to resolve on my own. Mostly due to the old version on applications used in the course.

love u

Everything was pretty good until he got to the authorization, it would have been really good that he shows some of the documentation on how and why he used passport like that, but instead he just says I got that from passport..... and there's a ton of code that is related to passport.

This course started off great but when it started to get into the details I had no clue what Jack was doing. It was literally here and there with no explanation what so ever. The only way you would follow this is if you have been doing this for years and have years of experience. FAR FROM A BEGINNER COURSE!

Pertains to ATOM.IO > The instructions are outdated... I couldn't find a lot of the packages; I am assuming that they are a part of the 84 packages that are installed.

Not for beginners at all.
