This course was very helpful. I learned a lot from the instructor. Yes he have a light accent but his english is very good and he explains very well for my opinion (english isn't my first language as well). The half star he misses for me is the reason he jumps too much with branches in sections and if you are not familiar with git it can be confusing and the point that verdaccio is not working very well. For example I had the problem that my user logged out and I was not able to log in again even after reinstalling it. Thanks for everything this course will help me in my career!

I am learning a lot about npm and npx along with node modules. I needed to learn this so I can find out what the errors were saying to me. Whether I had the right packages installed or not.

I enrolled in this course to learn more about creating npm packages. The course was really helpful and i learned a lot of new things but I wish there should be more about creating and publishing packages on npm registry which is a more real world example rather then using Verdaccio.

I enrolled in this course to learn more about creating a package. The course was really helpful but I wish there should be more about creating a React package.
