Curso ótimo, porém desatualizado com a plataforma atual
No había finalizado el curso, en mucho tiempo. Pero pude crear mi propia web desde 0.
Aún me queda bastante por aprender, pero pude salir de la duda de si seria capaz de crearla sin tener idea.
Gracias*

Es un curso profesional, sólido y completo.
