This is a difficult, high-workload course. The first half of the semester was hard, but at least the lecturer had good slides and was knowledgeable. The second half, however, is just as difficult, except the new lecturer doesn't actually give lectures, uses 4-year-old recorded videos, and does "help sessions" instead.

Semester Two - 2023

course is very bad first half lecturer is ok but lectures get very boring and hard to follow so honestly dont turn up irl for the first half of the course u can just copy and paste code from the slides and ur good maybe skim thru lec recordings if u need. second half is terrible because mano uses old pre recorded videos because he is lazy and the videos are useless and a lot of workload especially if u have no prior web dev experience. if u like the content or wanna do webdev then id say do the course just for some experience i got a+so it was okay but dont rely on lecturers

Semester Two - 2022

Piss easy if you have done kind of basic webdev (HTML, CSS JS) before. I heard it once been described as "Roleplay as a webdev from 2005"
