The instructions for getting a token to enable push operations from the remote repo were delayed to the final project. This created a significant amount of confusion when the coursework is followed as an activity and not just a reading and listening. The instructions for navigating to the Token(classic) link in the Github UI should be inline with the first exercise that it is applicable to, where the sandbox environment is first introduced. i know this a relatively new feature of Github, but more effort should be made to update the earlier sections of this course to reflect up-to-date functionality.

Course structure was good and informative. But the CLI on which final GIT assigment must be done should be updated and clear. I noticed sometimes when the commands are entered, multiple lines are appearing and seems distorted. Apart from that everything was fine.

The course could be enhanced by incorporating more extensive and real-world project scenarios, providing learners with a deeper understanding of collaborative development.
