web development
Excellent course for learning full stack web development Great course.
I have learnt a lot about web development and meteor.
The only downside (as with many web development courses on Coursera) is that there is no section on how to deploy a Meteor project to the web.
I would definitely recommend the course for everyone who starts his journey to Meteor web development.
Changed my view on web development frameworks.
Really helpful for people wanting to get in touch with new web development techniques.
More than 6 hours for me--nothing like the 30 minutes it claims (however, I will point out it was a good assignment and I learned a lot).I think if the assignments were structured more like the U of Hong Kong web development courses this would be a five star course.
Meteor is a powerful framework for web development.
Furthermore, there are many mistakes & errors in the course itself, which dropped me marks & made for an overall much poorer learning experience compared to the previous 2 courses in the series.As a result of my horrible experience with this course I won't be taking any more in the series (I can't risk dropping out because of course-related issues) , but will look to pickup web development with another provider, such as Udacity.This course needs a thorough staff review and all it's issues sorting out.

final project
Final project is a bit challenging, but there's enough provided up to that point that a little creative thinking can get it done.
Another proposal for improvement: the peer review form does not reflect the tasks of the final project well.
I'm still not familiar with all the packages suggested for the final project.
The final project ended up being just the right amount of challenging and I learned a ton from the course overall.
Fast paced, and the final project is a doozy, but well worth the effort.
The final project is a bit challenging, but is manageable with what you learn here.

final assignment
The quizzes are not too difficult if you pay enough attention to the lectures and I definitely recommend building the application alongside the instructor, so that when you are required to build the final assignment you don't have any trouble thinking on what to do next to meet the requirements with your app.
Perhaps the assignment should be built upon over the course of the class, with the final assignment fully realizing the end product.
Reasonably challenging final assignment especially if you take on the extra features.
The final assignment, if done properly, teaches lot and I'm extremely excited about how much I can do now.I'm also excited to work with a Meteor.js framework, which, allegedly, the hottest thing on the web right now.
Bravo Great course but the final assignment is really tough.
