Course content was really good and to the point, I just want to learn the basics of Jasper Report, So I enrolled for this course.

good presentation, expected a bit of hands-on exercises
By Pratik Mulay on 11/8/2020
The course is good. However, sometimes it goes too fast to catch up for the begineers especially when the author changes the properties of an element. The output PDF layouts are left with some alignment issues which should have been addressed by the author to make it a whole. Also, I found difficulties while downloading the related jar libraries through the provided links as many of the zip distributions provide multiple jar files which may not be required. Range of topics coverage is admirable.

Installation of JasperSoft Studio , Installation of Required Softwares could have recorded it is kind of directly jumping into concepts and excercise . The base foundation is not set properly
