Hi,
I am currently taking this course and I am about half way into it. I already have a CS degree and I've been working as a developer for ~8 years.
The course is very interesting and comprehensive.
If you want to do this course properly, I think 6 hours per week for this course is bare minimum:
- There are ~3 hours of lectures each week
- The original course is split into 14 weeks
- Each chapter has homework at the end of it
- Homeworks are not very difficult, but some of them require significant amount of work
- Projects require significant amount of work

- added link to book source code
We often get issues opened that are empty, with no text or description of a problem. This may be because learners follow the link from the Community section, and post in order to interact. By removing the link (but keeping the link to the contributing instructions) we can hopefully direct new learners in how to interact productively.
- To be more consistent with our Khan Academy recommendation elsewhere in the curriculum
- also some students expressed confusion with the FutureLearn course
Stanford Database courses had long been part of the OSSU curriculum. When Stanford pulled down their platform Lagunita, OSSU had to find a new offering. With the Stanford material back on edX, OSSU should return to this high quality offering.

Students regularly ask in Gitter how to audit Python for Everybody (Py4E). The instructor of Py4E has created a free version on a standalone site. This has been the alternate link. Instead this should be the main link.
