Good content, bad sound.

As a newcomer to both programming and Go, I must say this is the best introduction to Go on Udemy. Utilization of real-world projects solved step by step while learning key concepts is the best way to "Go", pun intended. I also appreciate Linux being the OS of choice:) Thank you for an amazing course and I am looking forward to some intermediate level ones by you.

While I appreciate the unique approach to teaching, the course really lacks in content in my opinion. The projects are very barebones and usually just require knowledge over a certain library, meaning that if you don't know the library yet you're forced to just code along with the instructor. At which point it would have been better if the instructor just included a copy of the code he made for us to download. Sometimes, especially towards the end of the course, the content seemed very rushed. I can easily see this course becoming a perfect 5 stars if the instructor will turn each project into an example and then add another project in the same subject that is more in depth. This way we have the opportunity to actually utilize what we learn and not get stuck if he discusses a library or a subject we weren't familiar with before.
