@linamnt nice resource, though I'm really not a fan of putting code on slides to go over them. Code-alongs are better for learning and retention. (the slides from the course I mean)

[linamnt]

Yes definitely, I think thats a great way to distinguish ourselves from that course.

@linamnt plus we'll have a much much much nicer website 😉 well, we'll have a website, full stop 😉 I think this is something that is actually not appreciated enough. Students, from my experience, really really like that they have the material easily accessible.

I liked the material on 'best practices' lecture. and the good code/bad code part can be done in code-along format
