Since OOP is so prevalent everywhere it really helps to grasp the basics and get comfortable with the fundamentals. Thanks!

Would've been great to see some theory and implementation of abstract classes, other than that its a pretty solid base course covering almost all the OOP topics in a very clear wayđ„

The course is great, though around the last two chapters is when I found pretty big gaps in information. The lesson expects you to know what to do despite what you need to do not being explained or brought up. At times even Boots was of little help and I ended up using a seer stone for the first time since learning with boots.dev. Fill in the blanks of this course and itll be perfect and understandable

I like how the course shows many different ways to use OOP. For me, it was a tough road, and I have to do a lot of re-reading to fully understand the subject, but be aware that if you only use a fraction of this, you are already a killer programmer.

Really enjoyed this course. I didn't know about OOP specifically before taking this course, but I see how useful it can be. I'm sure this is something I will be using in my own programs when I can

this explain how OOP works, and with this information you can translate to any OOP Programming language that use it... like php, I think it's really helpful to know this, so you can communicate better with others and get a deeper understanding when coding.
