I really didn't like the course, I was expecting more theory, and base foundations, connections between backend and front end is very superficial. It can be very confusing for a beginner or can be a success with just follow steps but doesn't have a very clear idea about what is going on.

Thanks for course, but there should be lots of improvement for this: 1. API that used in this course is outdated 2. Need more detail for each social media API example so that we can understand more about that. 3. Lazy pdf documentation (just adding materials like trash without adding detail architecture and more explanation)
