I like the short video format and overall length of the course. That said, I found it strange that we spent so long creating and managing users for an app that probably wouldn't have any. For example, there's no ability for users to do basic formatting of their posts, they can only add 1 long paragraph for the content. It would be more useful if users could at least have a some control over the presentation. Also in my opinion, the course is not ideal for 'beginners,' even though it's marketed that way. I've had some Object Oriented Programming experience and understand the basics but it was difficult to keep up with. Other than some frustration with those things, the course moves quickly and I like that each video focuses on 1 specific topic. It may work well for you if you've had extensive experience using other frameworks, but I wouldn't recommend it for beginners.
