Build a Real Time web app in node.js , Angular.js, mongoDB (Udemy.com)

Great course for begining with MEAN Stack!!!!

I am new in all of this things and I learned a lot

There are a few mistakes in the code, and overall it seems that the instructor didn't always plan the lectures in advance. There isn't a lot of background provided to the code and you need to be familiar with some web development concept in advance to understand what is going on.

Started well, but very quickly went down hill. He improvises the whole thing so along the way makes too many mistakes and gives unclear explanations. The forum reveals that many students have not been able to follow up or understand parts of this course. This could be fixed by the instructor giving a quick response to the students concerns on the forum, but this does not seem to be the case. At this point I am giving up. A real shame. One good thing: At $9.99 this course is accurately priced.

Not a good start for any fresher. Learn AngularJS Basic, MongoDB Basic and NodeJS basic then come here to take this course.

Learning by doing. You're learning a lot quickly. No wasteful chatter as in other courses. Very helpful in understanding the MEAN stack in a very short period of time.

Worth time spending only if you have basic understanding of Javascripts, angularjs

I enjoyed the course though

This is like looking a stonned person coding.

Although he knows the technologies he uses, is extremely formulaic, the explanations on the coneptual principles of using what he uses are non existent, reffers to tasks as "... and all that stuff" which constantly makes you wonder "well... what stuff?". Additionally he improvises a lot (gotta give it to the instructor, improvising funcitoning code is not easy) but does not make i a good course. The code is extremely disorganized, the examples are artificial (reffer to his explanation of middleware). He does not follow a script but a very general idea of what he wants to build, and sometimes feels like he just looks at some other reference app. Some parts are introduced with no explantion at all (for example he mentions MVC, if you know what that is, specially in the context of AngularJs, you probably should not be taking this course). This is seriously not worth the 22€ I paid for this course and certainly an absolute scam for 144€ if you don't get the discounted version of the course. You will be much better off just going to egghead.io and getting an actual explanation of what you're doing with available source and a person that can convey core concepts without sounding like they relly don't know why they are doing what they are doing.

I would ask for refound, but whatever...

Little learning (basically just copy his code with no explanation), lots of errors during lectures, and less professionalism that I would expect from a typical udemy course. Don't waste your $10 here.

This is a very usefull course. Very good course.

Without proper knowledge of web development this course gets too complicated. Several frameworks are used without good explanation. In some cases you can go online and read about them to get a better understanding. But when the course progressed around 65-70% you have to add so many code and files without testing that it's very confusing. When you start testing and it doesn't work you have no idea where to start debugging. Maybe when I have more knowledge of Javascript and the frameworks I will return to finish this course.

After finishing this course, here's my opinion.

Good Point :

- While following this course you'll see the whole MEAN stack.

- You do a real project all along the course.

Bad Point :

- It feel like an overview of the stack without much explained (see my last point bellow).

- The sound of teacher's mics is a bit "random" from times to times and even disapear on the part "Creating a new directive: reverse.js".

- The teacher lack preparation for the course, it's make me feel more like folowing a live code session than a real course, though nice I was looking for things to learn not just watching someone typing some code.
