Este material é bem completo, recomendo principalmente para quem usa linux ou tem um computador com capacidades para configurar uma VM, fiz usando MAC e precisei utilizar dependências específicas do meu OS o que me gerou algumas dificuldades ao longo do projeto, ainda assim super possível de se fazer, uma outra questão é o Heroku, usado para deploy do seu app, atualmente esta é uma ferramenta paga (na época que gravaram tinha free trial) sendo assim se prepare para gastar um dinheiro a mais.

Amazing course so far... with clear explanations & wonderful structured content. The instructor has made the content easy to follow and grasp. Definitely worth taking . Happy.

Some things are not explained as well as others, but the course is already pretty lengthy and can't encompass every single thing in detail. The quiz questions in some of the assignments weren't the best imo and obviously English isn't the authors native language, so aside from an accent you will have to deal with incorrect grammar in written and spoken word. Overall though I learned so much! Thank you and great job!

las explicaciones son claras, siguen una linea de aprendizaje que te permite entender y poco a poco como funciona gitlab. Me parecio muy interesante el deploy de aplicaciones en Heroku, no lo conocia como proveedor de SaaS para aplicaciones.

A good basic course to get started around the GitLab CI/CD. I am already working in GitLab for around 1 year and wanted to enhance my knowledge in .gitlab.yml file. It covers most of the topics and is overall a good basic course for GitLab CI/CD.

By Ahmed Mohamed Ahmed Attya on 5/16/2024

The most thing I loved in this course that he gives you the steps of pipeline gradually by starting from simple pipeline features to advanced. but the problem that from section 10, my pipeline failed due to error in database and because I have no experience in db i couldn't complete with him but I watched videos only

By Anonymized User on 5/13/2023

The topics covered in this course are very interesting, the course is useful and well done, but there are these drawbacks: the Python code used in the examples doesn't work anymore and the author still hasn't fixed it and the platform Heroku used in some examples it's not free anymore.

By Grzegorz Wąs on 1/10/2023

The course was very informative and simple to understand. However there are some issues with the provided python code that needed some tweaks to get it working. I think the section with application building should be refreshed. Overall I really enjoyed the course and it helped me to understand Gitlab CI/CD better :)

By Anonymized User on 9/26/2022

I got a bit disconnected in the middle during the app build bit, but overall this was a very good class. I have taken 2 similar classes, recorded live and another online and they pale in comparison to this course

By Anonymized User on 4/4/2022

I thought the course was very in-depth and loved the fact that the whole course used the same project/app throughout. The teacher took a great approach throughout the course by keeping the pipelines simple to start and building complexity into them when needed. He also did a great job of explaining various options and the pros and cons of each depending on what the individual projects needed. Overall, great course!
