G​reat foundation concepts, explained in bite-sized chunks. Enough for a user to know what to explore further. I recommend it to anyone who would like to leverage and align their existing experience.

I'm learning a LOT, and you don't have to take it quite as slowly as they suggest. But, it's nice that there's a manageable pace set out for you. Instructor and guests were great--relatable and clear.
