In general it is quite good, if you are new to design it may be fantastic for you. In my case, since I already have graphic training, I missed delving into certain key aspects, such as the generation of certain mock-up images, but in general the course is complete.

Excellent course. Very good and complete explanation. The course served as a complement (I already had a base) but you will do well even if you are new to this. Recommended!
