Nuxt.js 2 - Vue.js on Steroids (Udemy.com)

- Maybe the content was good once, now is quite OUTDATED and it is incredibly annoying to follow. - Course of just a big project, instead of smaller ones for each topic like his current vue course. Big projects just make everything more confusing. - I really had to push myself to finish the course, not motivating, not truly engaging, huge files, huge project. - Copy & pasting everything: "Now we cut this here and paste it here" he does it in half a second and you need to replay it 20 times to see what is it exactly that he is cutting out. The last sections are simply annoying, drained my motivation to finish the course and ruined it for me even when the starting sections are good.

After completing the Vue.js course from Maximilian i fast jumped on the nuxt.js train. And again Maximilian did an amazing job. Sure the firebase urls where not correctanymore but thats not a problem. The kinda short videos (5-10 minutes) turned out to be just perfect as you permanently had some feeling of progress. This course really helped stepping up my game within the Vue.js Stack as nuxt ist almoast mandatory everywere i looked. Totally worth it. 10/10 would buy again.

Altough not everything's up-to-date (this course was made in 2018), a lot of stuff still works as shown in the videos. Maximilian does his best to make dry or hard topics easier and kind of fun. My only criticism is that sometimes he's a bit too fast, especially at the end of the course. But overall it's a great course for beginners (like I was), additionally to his other course about Vue JS (which I took beforehand; no, this is no ad, but I thought it would be best to stick to him as a teacher because I also enjoyed the Vue JS course).

The course is super long because of Max explaining all the things, but there are many key things left out in the course. Like for example this course doesn't use firebase SDK and instead takes the axios rest api shortcut. This course doesn't use cloud firestore, instead use firebase realtime database which I don't know who uses in 2019. This course gives you no idea how to use firebase onAuthStateChange() before Vue app gets created like you can do in normal Vue app. This course doesn't show how to use router guards, route meta, the things you can easily do in normal Vue app. Lastly and most importantly this couse doesn't show you how to deploy your universal app in any actual host like Zeit Now or Netlify, it just gives you buch of lectures and text, rest you have to figure out on your own. I at least expected it will show how to deploy in at least one place. Personally I'm not happy with this course as I feel I still don't know many things. I took Max's Vue course from where I actually learned Vue and that course was way better than this one.

This course was a good introduction to Nuxt.js. Max does a very decent job of conveying the features of Nuxt by example and does it in an endearing way. My only constructive criticism is the very minimal exercises for the reader. Upon finishing this course, I feel like I've mostly just typed along with Max, gained a decent breadth of understanding, but much less depth. Exercises are where the student builds a depth of understanding and there should be more of that. There are exercises in this course, it just needs more. With that exception, the course was excellent.

This course, and more importantly THIS Instructor, are an amazing example of great education. I own 4 different courses taught by Max and they are more than worth it. I feel like I got more than I paid for. The one thing I was hoping to see in the course was integrating the server side rendering onto serverless AWS. I have made a few projects with Vue+Nuxt since I bought the course, one hosted on heroku, and an SPA that can teach you how to type very easily and its dead simple; I call it TypeUp. You can check it out on my website - https://joelwinfrey.com/typeup/

Max (Schwarzmueller) is the Johannes Brahms of nuxt.js (and vue.js). I once read a user's comment on one of Max's courses, and she said "I just had my brains scrambled". I thought that was funny, but I also really understood what she was saying. Why? Well, you might be different, but I have had to go over and over this class (and vue.js) myriad times to understand what Max was indeed teaching. But eventually I did understand. You see, Max does not mince words, he does not waste your time, and everything he says gives one better and more complete insight into this topic. If you want to learn this complex technology, this is the course. I highly suggest taking Max's vue.js course first, since nuxt.js builds on top of vue.js. Over and over again, I am impressed with this man, and honestly I consider him brilliant.

Max is a great instructor. I have followed his content on youtube and recently here for CSS and this course. Diving in to his other Vue course, and I have his Angular and remake of MEAN. I feel Max teaches the code as a developer and shows various examples that can be applied to real projects. His methods of tackling errors is a great learning experience also, although I think he usually spots the cause of an error faster that any normal human. Great work.

I love this course. After I took his Vue class, I needed a project to use the newly learnt knowledge and this was a perfect course. It feels like nuxt is a framework for Vue framework and I highly recommend others to use this. Nuxt enhances the understanding of Vue development! I could easily understand what he wants to say even if I am not a native English speaker. Actually, his courses are a reason why I don't regret spending my money on Udemy and I'm happy that I can understand English. Thanks a lot for wonderful courses and I already bought two more courses of his and looking forward to finish those!

The end seemed slightly rushed, I expected another exercise near the end, but the course was over all excellent. A bit more on authentication and maybe something on OAuth? or interfacing with social media (like buttons) as all apps seem to need to do these days. Sign in with Facebook is a thing! But seriously I'm struggling to come up with things wrong with the course, hence my 5 star rating.
