The course was easy to follow and comprehensive about using the canvas to draw. The only addition that would be nice is the use case of capturing user input using a canvas but every other use case was covered with some nice looking projects at the end of the course

The course was a good match for me. I would have liked a little more explanation as to why the instructor did what he did. Especially when debugging.

It's good for a quick start but sometimes the lecturer seemed unsure in his code or didn't explain it in-depth enough. It's a decent intro, but you'll have to rely more on reading the docs about things like performance and the context state management.

Половину времени лектор пишет код не относящийся к теме, допускает ошибки. Ощущение, что он первый раз открыл cheat sheet, на который он ссылается и ощущение, что он совсем не готовился к курсу.

Preparation lacking in some sections. Off putting when the instructor clicks and the expected doesn't happen.

More real world examples would be useful. Seeing how the elements are used by developers would be beneficial.

Easily digestible, expanded my knowledge of canvas and I completed the course, always a good thing.
