Frontend Masters

Some apps are pretty buggy in offline mode. But this one works perfectly and instantly. I download my courses while on Wifi and watch on my hour subway ride to work. It’s the most consistent I’ve been learning a new subject matter every day. Ty Frontend Masters for not only picking passionate instructors and relevant topics but also for making your material so mobile!

Front End Masters has changed my entire career and my life as a result of the intelligence, skills, and knowledge the instructors share. Teaching tech is really different than coding, and I’ve had some teachers who really struggle to explain advanced concepts, but the quality of instructors here is top notch. My phone enables me to watch, learn, review before interviews, or anywhere I am. The desktop app is what I use to practice the skills and I love the ability to read the transcription as well. Life changing education here. 💥

I appreciate that frontend masters has an iPhone app at all, but basic video functionality is broken. I’m unable to pause videos, for example—clicking on the pause button merely mutes them. The PIP mode has a zombie defect where dismissing the video the first time doesn’t work permanently and it comes back when another app is opened. When it is finally dismissed it continues playing silently in the background until the app is force quit. Overall the nonstandard controls in full screen mode are frustrating, eliminating native functionality/UI. But again, I appreciate that there’s an app at all.
