I just wish companies would adopt courses like these instead of the usual internal slop I've come to expect from them.. very well done !

All the basics taught, with on-hands examples, can run anything now. Of course, you can always go deeper for building e.g. Dockerfiles using all the commands there are, but for the normal dev workflow, this course teaches everything. Great as usual!

Missing docker-compose which is very important and very widely used, and also doesn't go in depth for a lot of topics.
