The instructor covered topics that were slightly more advanced than I anticipated for an essentials class. However, this approach encourages independent problem-solving through online resources, which is a valuable skill itself. The introductory videos for each chapter were so entertaining! Especially if you appreciate refined technical humor. I will be revisiting this course as a reference when I encounter similar tasks in my own projects.
