It was a great course, everything is delivered according to description. Having the source code makes it even better.
By Achanta Harshitha on 5/29/2023
It could be more perfect if the path of file creation is explained too...But anyhow the explanation is excellent content should be more than this
By CLIFFORD STANDRIGHT on 5/12/2023
This is a great course and I highly recommend except for the fact that he didn't say the Php mailer does not work on the local server. Thanks anywhere

El curso fue realmente agil, simple y concreto. Se puede terminar en menos de un día. Es absolutamente práctico.
By Viney Sunu on 7/29/2021
It helped in a perfect reboot in MySQLi, PHP functions etc. However, it would have been better if it contained, how to store blogs created per user. Like a user logged in can create blogs, then edit it also, other users can comment or like it. If these were there, then it would be 7 stars out of 5.
By Srinath B on 9/30/2020
The whole course explains what's done for the project clearly and is a good one for beginners that want to do projects in PHP. I would recommend this to all beginners to try and learn stuff!.

version de php ancienne version 5 , vérifications de sécurité moyenne , phpmailer non fonctionnel car ancien , mais cela reste un cours très intéressant et bien expliqué
By Seth Afosah on 7/28/2020
I thought the course would be difficult, but the illustrations and the explanations just took away that mindset

Some part of the project has not been well explained. Like in case of error displaying how the error is being displayed to the specific page but other than that this course is overall a great thing to learn.
