Learn Vue 2: Step by Step

love the series and it was mind blowing to see it.

I worked through the entire 7 hour course and after completing it I have the following feedback:

  1. Some videos are simply outdated and won't work anymore. For example https://laracasts.com/series/learn-vue-2-step-by-step/episodes/30 or even the brilliant object form tutorial in https://laracasts.com/series/learn-vue-2-step-by-step/episodes/19 fails because @keydown is not working. There have also been improvements added on the github repo to allow also array and file uploads for example: https://github.com/laracasts/Vue-Forms/pull/27/files I think a remake of only those couple of videos which are broken or where there has beena big enhancment would be great.

  2. From Episode 35 on many videos started to show us how to make some changes, without the possibility for us to play around with it, because it was part of the Laracast codebase. For a 20 min video, I found it very tiring to watch because I cannot actively participate or experiment. I think it would be better to stick to simple examples that we can either create from scratch while watching or that are provided in a git repo.

  3. I found it very difficult to follow #46 https://laracasts.com/series/learn-vue-2-step-by-step/episodes/46 because it in addition to the problems mentioned at 2. it is refactoring an algolia search - which I never heard of before. Also I would have loved to learn what that is, so a lesson starting from scratch to setup an algolia search would have been fantastic I think.

  4. A general thing - when I watch the videos I make notes for each video. Once the videos are marked as done, the number is gone. Would be cool if one can still see the number when they are checked.
