Yes, great videos well organized and clear instructions.

Some anti-patterns have been suggested as workflows (such as stubfile install).

Short and sweet! Definitely wouldn't recommend for someone who is completely new to Unreal Engine as it requires some basic knowledge of the Engine's API.
Also, I'd consider editing out some parts where code didn't run properly or when the PC is booting UE4, etc. Just to keep the videos from getting longer than necessary.
Thanks for your time on making this series, it was super helpful!

Excellent overview and detailed explanation of each step in the process. The lessons included a good selection of tools that showcase the versatility of Python in UE. Thanks, and I look forward to another learning opportunity with you!

Taking awhile to get into the meat of the course. Notes on where to skip to if you are familiar with programming and ue4 or python in general would be helpful
