    This isn't a real course, but rather an introduction to Kubernetes. I was hoping for something more ambitious, especially that the syllabus says that you need to be familiar with the go language. I am surprised this course is rated so high by so many people! The final project description is missing, so I really feel Iike I've lost a couple of hours of my life...

    This course is more like a demo of Docker and Kubernetes. The final project is missing and there is not much things you can do with your own hands. But the course has some great links and gives an idea of what is Kubernetes and how to play with it.

    I took this course as a primer to using Kubernetes.

    The course is very basic and does not go into much depth. There is a final project but no solution is given.

    Overall, it was a good primer.

    The course is informative and fun to learn, recommended. However, it seem to be not maintained anymore, and the final project lacks of information to complete it.

    The course is a very general view of the whole picture, but is great for beginners. Also it is a little cringy :)
