What They're Saying

Amazing course! It was a great introduction to web development — a perfect overview without getting lost in too much depth. The projects were super useful and really helped solidify the concepts.
Youssef Ali
Great course for a deep-down understanding of solutions to intricate data structures and algorithms. Very practical and test-oriented.

One of the best courses I have ever taken. The course starts with creating containers manually, then dives deep into how Docker simplifies the process.

This is really a nice way to get your head around containers and how to incorporate them in your work environment.

I really like Brian Holt's approach! As a front-end developer who only knew docker compose up/down/restart, I now understand what is going on on my machine and better understand what the upper management is talking about whenever they discuss trouble with the production build.
