Once again, there is no carved in stone answer for such situations. I’m definitely not against fixing issues on outdated courses but there’s also a limit to it. The thing has probably to do with how comfortable are you in the environment provided (though I have no knowledge of Node.js yet still managed), what the problem is (this one was fairly simple) and how many (good) answers you could find. And there is no simple way to add the functionality to the project. Oh how happy I was to fix that issue because Visual Studio templates are now so different that Identity individual accounts is no more the default setting. I also took other outdated courses from Mosh such as Xamarin and ASP. It is a matter of installing a few packages and reinstalling bcrypt package to its latest version. I just started with the authentication section and so far it works. I can tell you I installed the Node back-end on this course. I actually did not follow Mosh instructions on specific versions all the time because many of these packages are so old they have high or critical severity issues. But with a bit of efforts and research it is fixable. I don’t know where the author is blocked, but I had issues with setting up the Node.js back-end for it is outdated. That said, I’m also taking the React course right now. We have no time to learn all we’d need to learn to solve every problem. I actually took Mosh course because I had given up on another course where the back-end is also outdated and it was too much to deal with in a short time span. Mosh and serious trainers have exercices to make people work on their own, but this is still related to the technology learnt. They are not paid to tell employees “That’s on you”. When a company pays for training their employees, the trainers are also often called facilitators for a reason. You’re here to learn a specific technology in the best possible conditions. In the specific context of learning though, you should not be struggling (too much) with side concerns such as environment setup for the course should provide a valid solution. On the other hand in “real world scenario” (Copyright © anytime to Moshfeg Hamedani ), we will be facing tons of issues we have to solve on our own. On the one hand we pay for courses and we are in a good right to expect to go smoothly through the courses without too much issues. There is no carved in stone answer for such situations. I got way more than I paid for out of these courses. Yes, Mosh needs to revisit some of them and tweak the parts that people struggle with. Hard to abandon courses that are EVERGREEN! All of them are relevant, useful, and effective. It got me started… and that’s all I needed to do. React – Fantastic course for jumping into the React world. That taught me a HUGE skill that I use every day in the real world. But After a week of troubleshooting, I figured out HOW to refactor my code and make it work. Node – I got stuck at the Mongoose HTTP and MongoDB changes to Atlas. JavaScript – Stopped me from using “var” all the time and I can now write functions that don’t suck (which then led me to HackerRank and Codewars to make my JS even better) Git – Now I know how to branch… and WHY! SUPER VALUABLE COURSE in the real world!ĭocker – Use it every day to build and package work into GCP I’ve done 10 of them – all of them are still relevant to my current work:
