I am not unfamiliar with HTML, and I wanted to get certificates as I've been coding for years. I thought I would go through the course without problems. The machine keeps failing me on the correct work. It drives you up the wall as you hit a wall and you cannot get past the bug.
I'm all for free learning tools (if you ignore the donation nag screen every few lessons or so) and admire their dedication to provide this. Using this site is not too bad, but not a top notch experience. The online editor is a bit clunky and doesn't provide niceties like predictive text (so you're copying/pasting variable/function names or having to type them out char by char). There is, however, one fairly major problem: your answers must be literally identical to what the lesson expects, even if your answer is perfectly, functionally correct. For example: I submitted "(var1 + (var2 * var3))", which was reported as incorrect. What was expected was "(var1 + var2 * var3)!! It's a pain as it makes you think you've made a genuine mistake so not particularly conducive to the learning experience.
The content is fine although there is better. The nagging for donations is annoying and there is better content out there. Do not agree to donate or you will only get out of it by sending them an email. Which for an organisation that promotes itself as a charity is very underhand.
I'm doing the Javascript algorithms course, almost done it actually! But finding I'm not actually learning much cause they just say "Write this code" but there's not nearly enough explanation as too what the code is doing, so even though you may pass, you don't actually gain any understanding of how the code you wrote works. I end up having to google things and look at tutorials to understand things so....what's the point?
Not sure if an actual person wrote this course because it is so badly explained and written that is hard to believe a human did that.It feels as if no one proofread or checked if it even makes sense. Many steps and explanations are skipped and it creates great confusion. Moreover, the moderators on the forums, that are supposed to help you, treat you like you are stupid for not knowing the answer, making it seem like the answer is so obvious, like how could not see where you went wrong.I am very close to finishing my JavaScript certification, but I think afterwards I'll continue someplace else.
