It's a very nice introduction to programming with Kotlin, specially for those who have no experience whatsoever in this field. It may feel a bit slow for those more experienced ones, but its quality is really good.

Course is Cool

Good

By Iurii Nedostup on 9/14/2020

Very good course, clear explanation of language concept. However, I'm lacking some examples of end-to-end real-world applications. By that, I mean not only build the code but store it on Git and organize simple CI/CD and testing, maybe just a high-level overview, because the topic is very big by itself.

By Ho Wai Yung on 9/3/2020

Its a good instructor and overview of the language so far.

By Erick Cabral on 9/3/2020

I Recommend

Love your teaching style, pretty easy to understand but to be honest Now a day in 2020, So far there are no more updated contents. Hopefully, you are going to add more content. I really enjoy studying with you!

By Abhishek ML on 9/2/2020

The course is really good, explanation is simple and understandable.

By Bill Coggins on 8/21/2020

Topics covered clearly and concisely. Examples easy to do and learn from. You definitely should code along side the class.
