Great project to get some more complicated functions and class relationships together. I feel much more apt to continue more difficult projects going forward, and I am excited to see what comes next!

this project was REALLY cool. i really appreciated the unit tests part, it's something i've barely ever done and seeing it like this made me realize how useful it was. not only that, but the project is something I kinda feel like expanding on too. really cool project.

Great course that leads you by the hand at the beginning, giving the base idea on how to work and then ask you to start thinking yourself on the implementation with minimal guidance
