Some explanations were not in deep. Furthermore, one video wasnt there at all (leaderboard). There also was a video where the ending of another video (around 1 min) was the starting of the new one. Some concepts were very hard to understand and were very complex so they shouldve made a different course of 2 to 3 videos more about it. Dont wanna blame on anyone but english was a bit not understandable but it was good. Ty for the course, the first one ive attended. Good course tbh besides a few flaws.
