Amazing Course! Thank you! Let's set up Express with Mongo next! please!

MEAN and Mongo soon?

Agreed! I currently use MySQL for most of my projects but with the industry going towards Mongo, it would be incredibly useful for those of us looking to switch careers.

Awesome course!

Love the fact we started from the beginning, a lot of tutorials out there start with express-gerenator and becomes very overwhelming to know how to use express tools, but throw this way is much clearer to me me now how express work together and why the generator structure is the way it is.

Next we need an implementation of express with mongoDB, and a MEAN JavaScript Stack

I really liked that the course didn't require the use of Workspaces and that we built it from scratch. However, at the end there were suddenly some issues that kept me from being able to follow along.

Agreed. A lot of the courses on here spend too much time talking about and explaining workspaces. We will never be using workspaces in a professional environment, so I see it as a waste of time.

Also, Huston's presentation is better than some other teachers on here. I don't want to throw shade on anyone because I have still learned from their courses, just saying sometimes you encounter a better teacher and think "Dang, I wish he had done more of these courses!"
