A really excellent course. Mr. Svekis is a great teacher. In addition to the main content, I appreciated the “light touch” introduction of php for the server side and XAMPP for local host creation. These topics are something for me to look into! I look forward to studying with Mr. Svekis again.

Great start to explaining how to use ajax to communicate with other files. I felt it got a bit muddled later in the course. I thought the author was thinking on the fly and have no idea why the random code generator was introduced. But overall a good course

Little hard when in the video =(Equals) look like -(Minuses), the browser does not function as in video for displaying objects,I spent two hours trying to debug a non-issue. In the end I was able to follow and debug the code he had as the courses went a long. I spent about 5 to 8 hours doing this course. 4 stars for all the resources given, which helped a lot during this course.

I appreciate the simple presentation and the code examples (which I will be using on future projects). I now have the skills to call and parse AJAX data, which was the entire point of taking this course. Thank you and I look forward to your other courses.

Easy to follow step by step examples with clear voice and explanation from theory to practical working exercise files. Also very quick in responding student queries in which it matters a lot for a newbie like me.

Der Kursleiter kann sich nicht richtig entscheiden, welche Gruppe er anspricht. Er wechselt ständig zwischen Anfängern und Personen, die wahrscheinlich schon HTML, PHP, CSS und/oder javascript Erfahrung haben.

JSON is simple but this course is great for learning how to interact with JSON data (which is the more challenging part). I recommend this course.
By Dean Watts on 7/8/2016
Instructor seems to be "winging it" in that the examples being displayed on the screen were being input on the fly without really knowing if it would work and in some situations there was an error. Also, not enough on different JSON sources our configurations but instead a side excursion in to PHP.
By Sanjoy Mullesserril on 3/26/2016
Excellent course! The instructor explains the basic JSON concepts throughly with lots of hands on examples and also provides many useful on-line resources for future reference. Also, in the last section, the instructor shows how to create dynamic JSON with PHP on the server side, and display the results in the browser. That section is very useful. A++++++

I always enjoy Laurence's courses: bite-size, yet packed with information and practical uses. This one is no exception and I highly recommend it.
