In short, i don't think this course is worth getting.
The description of this course is accurate to what you are getting into, because in my opinion, it is best to have some flutter knowledge before hand. I never knew how to code flutter before this course, but i do however have knowledge about other coding languages and how to code, and this did help me.
This course is mainly aimed at people coding on Mac OS for iOS, so if you're like me, coding on Windows for Android, you are definitely going to run into some errors that are going to be difficult to solve, because Reed does not explain what to do if we get certain errors and if he does, its only for students using Mac OS. Going through this course was extremely annoying, because every time we had to set up a new thing, i would run into errors that would take me hours to solve, because i have to find solutions on the web.
This brings me to my second point. There is no response from Reed when questions are asked. Myself and several other students, from what i saw in the Q&A section, has asked so my questions and majority of them have no responses from Reed himself. There are some questions that are answered by other students, but you have to be lucky for another student to actually see your questions.
My third point is that this course is outdated and it seems like no effort was put into updating this course. Which is extremely difficult and annoying to deal with, because with newer versions of things we have to use in this course, there are certain lines of code that have incorrect values. The node version used in this course is also Deprecated, which means that you may have to opt in for paying for the database services.
The reason why i am not giving this course a 1 star rating is because, it did help me create the application as intended, even though took way more time than expected, because of all this problems i was experiencing. I do not recommend this course to anyone (especially beginners), even if your are using Mac OS.

Really great job. Fantastic introduction to get you up and running with creating your first app with users and firebase db.

This is a great course. Reed says the precise words, not more, not less. It's a little bit annoying when other teachers talk and talk and never get to the point. Reed also explains what he is doing on every step, so it's easy to understand why he is doing the things he does. You need to know some Dart in order to follow this course. Personally, I did another one before starting this one, which was very helpful, because now I can understand everything Reed does. I really love this course, because you can learn so much from it. Not only the language, but also good practices, which I didn't get from my other course. Reed is very methodical when writing the code, which I really appreciate. I really hope Reed can make other tutorials.

i gave this instructor befor 2.5 but when i started to work in my iwn project i releaieed i got so much from those tutour thx.

Amazing course, lots of learning in this course. Level of complexity is also good for beginners and all topics are easier to understand.

By Principe Orazio on 9/23/2020

Personally I did not find this course suitable for studying but it was simply a re-reading of a project made by the author.
The course does not teach how to use Flutter nor how to create widgets or layouts but is based on a dictation, without explanation, of code that, for those unfamiliar with Flutter, can be incomprehensible

By Ashok kumar on 9/15/2020

some updated features are not explained.
in course starting, it is very hard to get it initial build.
it can be explained a bit.

By Tom Cruise on 4/14/2020

I never really write reviews for courses because i never manage to complete any course, i always lose interest but the instructor Reed is a different person. I really really highly enjoyed this course, Reed could you PLEASE make another course for an E-Commerce App with flutter .. that would be really awesome. This app was such a long journey, Reed feels like a family member now. Thanks man. * crying in background *

One of few Flutter courses that comprehensively covers GUI and back end(Firebase).
Some improvements can be use of state management instead of passing data to different views using constructor.
The Q&A section is also dead with no response from instructor / TA
But overall good project with real value for money

By Manuela Garcia on 8/6/2020

Positive:
The course is really well structured, the instructor is really clear and the app developed is great. Also, he teaches neat tricks on how to use Firebase for flutter apps.
Negative:
The course has not been updated in a while, so some code is out of date. Also, the instructor doesn't answer a lot of the questions of students (or hasn't done it for a while now), and when he does, he isn't very helpful.

By Nyland Sidifall on 8/18/2020

I like the course, faster pace but gets to the point. Awesome for those with some flutter experience under their belt.

By Sebasti on 5/26/2020

one of a kind class, the only thing is that the teaching aspect leaves a little to be desired. In CS, the little things matter and it feels as though the class skips over everything of the manner. However, I have yet to find a class as illuminating and useful as this one, it just requires some breaking it down yourself
