Very well structured and paced course. I got almost everything I was looking for. The lessons are byte sized and covers one topic at a time with a demo. It started from the admin point of view and then soon switch to developer mode. I wanted help in understanding the GUI but I learned much more than that in an hour. An hour well spent.

It would be good if there was more explanation and demo for each concept. Less concepts coverage throughout the course.

great course, but volume is too low even with maximum volume. Can you please have one section to tell us how to install Gerrit on our own machine like windows, Mac or linux?

The course is good and covers the basic. Explanation of concepts is good. However, I would like to have seen some some more content like 1. Instructions on installing gerrit in a real life environment. 2. Some more detailed worked examples of how to configure the various access controls for code review, verify labels etc. would have been ideal. 3. There was no video on how to move the changes from dev to master branch. 4. Integration with other CI tools for e.g Jenkins / Travis

Good for beginners. More information should be added on the topics "relation chain" and "submitted together".

Need to discuss user level first before talking about admin perspective. Also a caveat needs to be issued at the start that the student needs familiarity with Git to take this course.

Hi Stephan, I have prior experience on gerrit to an extent and have been working it on production; so with that in background, your course was clear and crisp for me as i would say it helped me to recap quickly on what i have been working on!, but to benefit to audience, it would have been great if you could have also added gerrit set-up/installation on git with few questions/questioners at end of each section or by end of course module and a lab where suitable for a practice/hands-on can be done in parallel ! This is just my advise from what's been observed at my end. Overall a great course .. Thanks :)
