Dr. Angela Yu's The Complete Full‑Stack Web Development Bootcamp Course Review

The course contents are good but some are outdated. I bought this in August 2024 , it says the course is updated in 2024, and it is updated till certain concepts. I completed around 52% of the course, and came to node js section and realised it's very much outdated. Some comments say from this point onwards the remaining parts are outdated but I'm not sure . So if you're planning to buy this course, take it as a reference or roadmap for the backend part( i didn't face any issues in frontend part) , or maybe refer some other courses as well. Happy learning!!

Some lessons she explains stuff really well, and teaches. Other lessons she just tells you and expects you to know. Get it on sale, it's worth. Full price don't bother. Also don't expect to come out of it being a web developer ready for work. It's a good way to understand fundamentals but ultimately most places won't entertain a ""portfolio"" without college/university training.

After I stopped learning to code for a long period of time and I really like her teaching style. I did other courses in the past, The Odin Project, for example ( I didn’t finish) and I like Angela’s way of teaching more. Also her course is very long and covers a lot of subjects deep enough to give you the confidence to build on the basis and to research the rest yourself if needed.

I highly suggest anything she offers. Great explanations and provides hands on projects. Just a heads up, depending on your experience in web dev, the first half can more or less be skipped over (depending on your understanding of the subjects).

It’s very detailed. I bought it during a Black Friday sale in November and I wasn’t as consistent with it in November/ December. January, I buckled down and decided to use that resource alone versus bouncing from FCC and Codecademy. With that being said, I’m 40% done with the course. I averaged about an hour and a half of study in Jan/Feb. March and April, I’ve been able to put in average of 3 hours daily. I’m at the advanced JavaScript section and I’m learning lots. She really pushes you. There’s no hand holding and it can be a bit discouraging if you don’t understand, but that’s the best way to learn. I learn best through struggling and figuring it out on my own. Of course, there’s Google and other resources that I use but I do my absolute best to try to solve the challenges before skipping to the solution. I’m hoping to complete the course within the next few months and jump into typescript with colt steele. I encourage you to try it. Her teaching strategies work for me. She’s very encouraging, as well.

I’m someone who learns through watching & taking notes and then doing things on my own which is the method Angela uses. She shows you a topic, then gives you a project to do on your own, and then you review with the video after. She actively advises against just coding alongside her which I think is important.
