Its simple short and easy to understand by beginners as well, but it would be more appreciated if the source code would be provided so that a beginner could understand and refer to the code if they get confused.

By Anhelina Mahidava on 3/26/2026

This course is not for an intermediate level, but for beginners. It doesn’t cover any particularly interesting topics - only the very basics. If you already program and want to improve your knowledge, I recommend skipping this course. If you’ve never used NestJS, it’s a decent starting point.
