I recently completed the "Introduction to Software Development" course by Amazon on Coursera, and it was a great experience. The course breaks down Java programming and the Software Development Lifecycle in a way that's easy to understand for beginners. The hands-on assignments were especially helpful in applying the concepts. Plus, the flexible schedule made it easy to fit into my routine. I highly recommend it for anyone new to software development!

Nicely explained and with hands-on coding Labs, this course by Amazon is Great, also addition resources are provided to help with course.

Excellent video explanations and greater detail in the readings, the guided laboratories help a lot to practice what has been learned.

It is actually solid introduction to Java Programming, more than I expected. I am looking forward to Course 2 ^^

I have found this course very helpful.

Amazing

Last module is a bit scuffed since you need to get the same results as the Emulation which is confusing since variable names can be different and they do not share how you should name your variables

Some of the assignments specifically the coding assessments are missing the code sections on the instructions page. Otherwise this is a very good course would be a 5.

The Overall Course was absolutely great. But the testcases for final assessment were not clearly mentioned.

The instructor was incredible and explained everything clearly and with a lot of examples. My problem with the course was how unpleasant the experience with the lab exercises were. The environment was slow and the projects sometimes repetitive and dull.

A lot of typos, even in quiz exams... Also at one point some important syntaxes are skipped, while sometimes the narrative in videos are so childish. Had to google myself a lot and read Oracle's documentation.
