    This course is very approachable even if you don't know Python or Django or other coding languages. It's a nice gentle introduction back into course work as well. Perfect if you have limited time.

    Is a good course, but if you know nothing about the command line interface or have no experience working with linux you will get so confused when you set up your account on pythonanywhere.

    Esperaba encontrar Django como elemento básico del curso.

    Se habla de HTML, CSS, SQL, pero apenas nada de DJANGO.

    I am not happy, this specialization is on Django, but it is not here at all. Why spend so much time on HTTP, HTML, CSS and SQL, if you could have indicated that basic knowledge of these topics is necessary to take this course and not spend so much time on it.

    Course instruction seems good overall, but I disagree fundamentally with the reliance on PythonAnywhere as opposed to real-life tools (e.g. IDE) for building with Python/ Django, which students will need and which employers are expecting to see on day-1.

    I had a hard time focusing. This instructor's lectures were not very focused or even polished, often finding mistakes and using screenshots of code, wtf? The tests were good and made you research and learn but I couldn't get through the first course.

    Don't use required online course resources (Python Anywhere) that have a hard data cap after which you can get locked out for 8.5 hours. Absolutely unacceptable.

    This is a hodgepodge of a few other courses and is not that well organized. Better off with the Django tutorials at djangoproject.com.
