Learning Blockchain Development with EOS and C++ (Udemy.com)

This course is not finished. The last word Jackson said is "See you in the next video." I really enjoyed this course, I highly recommend it. I would love to see an update of the course. I gave him a 4.5/5.

It takes courage to deliver a course this way because you need to go against the conventions of how a course should be structured. Instead of doing what everyone else is doing, this course explains things as they happen, it shows you what to do, but also it shows you errors along the way.

Great Course, it's for intermedia developers. If you really want to learn how to write Smart Contract with EOS you should definitely take this course. If you are newbie or you never code with C++ I will suggest before taking this course to take C++ Crash Course

I hate courses when presenter is reading official tech documentation to explain things. He just show documentation and go step by step through official specs. He also show you some video.. from some conference and then he assume that you are familiar with that video. Teacher seems to be very negligent. And definitely is not person who loves to teach. If you are used to courses on Udemy, where teachers are inventing them from scratch, they go beyond official documentation and seems to really understand subject. If you love stuff from teachers that create examples where they implement stuff they invented that cover everything what is necessary to understand key concepts - then avoid that course if you have choice.

In general a good course. Some explanations seem rushed, but can be lived with. There is one very big irritation point: the speaker tone is often times as if he does not like what he is doing. He makes that intonation in his sentences that can be interpreted like "This is really irritating but still I am doing it." Or as if he is explaining something to someone and that someone is stupid and that as if he explains it to him tenth time and is bored doing so" It is very subtle and difficult to explain, but it is definitely there. I know the author is not like that at heart, it is just his habit of speaking that comes from environment or whatever.. However if you want to do world class education material, this flaw is unforgivable. Maybe it comes from lack of confidence in what he thinks is worth talking about. Otherwise a lot of very good content, good technical knowledge etc. Please be confident, your course has excellent content, don't rush through and don't speak the content as if its not worth it. This is your subject, your show. Enjoy it and spread your enjoyment to others.

I think you really know what you are talking about. I believe to get more stars you need a better course structure and lectures structure. Presentation does matter a bit to get above average grade. The content is there though, but it is harder to learn when you have a hard time to see whats written and jumping back and forth and so on.

This is my second Udemy course, so perhaps I don't know what to expect, but compared to the other course I took (Ethereum development), this one is very poor (despite being almost 3 times the price). The order of the lessons seems random, e.g. a lesson that clearly requires the EOS toolchain is in the "intro to C++" section. The instructor's delivery is rambling and unclear, and the screencast is often hard to interpret - small, poor quality text where it's not obvious which piece of text the instructor is talking about. Overall, there is a distinct lack of polish and planning, which the instructor claims is his preference - I'm sorry, but it's not mine. It's also unhelpful to be told "go and learn this stuff by yourself". I know I can do that. The whole point of Udemy is so that I don't have to. I haven't even reached the EOS-specific part of the course yet, which is what I'm mainly interested in, but I'm seriously considering getting a refund and just searching youtube instead.

Not only the course content is excellent, but also Jackson is an awesome instructor. He is very patient and always reply my msgs in a timely manner no matter how silly my questions are. If you are new to EOS and want to learn as much as you can then this course is a very good choice!

Nice course. Enjoyed every bit. Jackson is a talented programmer and his skills show up all the time as he teaches the course. He has covered the breath of EOS with ease. One suggestion is, he should have developed simple 1 page web app (like voting app or message board, etc.,) to show EOS JS calls instead of showing on Console. It would give further confidence to people learning this skill to cross-reference as they build their (d)app.

Jackson has been producing this content and getting feedback from the EOS community for some time. It's great to see the final product in such great form. He is a very knowledgeable developer and explains the protocol well.
