Fantastic course! It combines Python, GitHub, and a bit of HTML. A bit challenging, but absolutely worth it!

Very hard but I learned a ton doing it, and after struggling on the markdown_to_html_node function for 7 days I the rest was relatively easy. On to the next challenge!

Hard, hard, hard! Not for the faint of heart. But this is a rewarding course if you stick through all the way to the end. It taught me the super important process of mind-mapping the assignment and understanding the steps before writing a single word of code. It taught me a process I can now use going forward with all assignments and projects, so no regrets!
