i can hear the guy is from south africa, so i already know its going to be good ( not expecting us to know everything he talks about, and explains things in detail to make us understand how the puzzle fits together

I have been practising some of these codes without understanding them. After a few videos, I can already do more with simple codes I thought I knew. This is amazing.

Excellent instructor. The course is years old but most of the content is still valid today. Perfect course for beginners.

So far it's amazing. Have only done section 1, 'Java Basics', but it was pretty good. It did help to have some knowledge from working with C#, but it also helped me understand a lot of stuff I was missing from working with C#.

It's a good course. I learned many things and made some cool demo apps also. Really enjoyed learning from this course.

Although this is a very old class about android, the teacher explains very accurately and in slow pace that everyone can understand.

All support is now GONE completely. Not only is the instructor no longer interested in supporting his course (and yet it is still being sold), but you can't even search through old support posts to see if your problem has been addressed in the past.

It's one of the most useful cources I've ever seen. Lector is so great and explain every topic the best way. I'd be really happy if the similar free cource is on Kotlin too. Thank you!

A very good course for beginners. The course exceeded my expectations in some cases, but not quite what I hoped for in some other cases.

The opener was fantastic. As of 4/2022 the websites to download the two tools are different and the interface for the programming is slightly different but can be easily maneauvered.

Although I have only recently started and I have a long way to go before completing this course, I must say it is excellent. It was a free course - probably because it is 4+ years old - but it is far better than many of the other courses I purchased on Udemy.
A BIG Thanks to the author :)
