"I took this course and finally finished a Udemy course!! It was fantastic. The pace was good and the level of detail was perfect. The course gave insight into Meteor, Handlebars, and Bootstrap all integrated together which is what you need to know to create anything... Thanks for a wonderful course!! I was very impressed with the real-time updates to multiple browsers without hitting the refresh browser button!!"
