“Brad definitely has some of the best techniques to embed the lesson into your mind… hands down these are the best tutorials I have had the opportunity to view.”
“Presentation is concise without being tedious… you honestly feel that you have a thorough understanding of the subject.”
“…[Brad] explained the process. Not memorize this or that, he explained the process. If you’re looking to take a course to understand the foundations of creating websites, look no further.”

Henry Tang –
Lectures easy to follow with downloadable codes. Very precise and clear explanation in every sections. Thank you Brad for the knowledgeful lectures.
Marie Billot –
matters of this course are unique. Far from all beaten paths. Very, very, very well explained.
Cevher Ozden –
Theme development part is awesome, but I cannot say the same thing for plugin development part because it is a little bit complicated and not elaborated systematic enough to make it easier for beginner.
Anna Jaroszyńska –
That was a perfect match and I learned a lot of skills that helped me in my internship. There were only two minor drawbacks: once an approach showed by Brad was outdated (luckly it was the updated way was posted in the QnA section) and I’d like to see more challenges where you have to come up with a solution by yourself. Overall, it’s a great course and you can learn a lot of practical and interesting stuff, I definitely recommand it!
Kanta Azuma –
It was a great course. I learned a lot through these videos. I’m really a beginner and need to review some part though because I didn’t understand 100%.
Jun Lim –
Delighted to find this course. Amazing thus far,
Brad almost covers all the doubts before I even have to mention. Delivery is clear, simply and precise. Thank you for sharing your knowledge.
Haslinda Ismail –
Great for beginners, Brad goes through everything step by step and explains why he does certain things. He also tries to keep the course updated when something has changed.

From the moment he started explaining about JavaScript (section 11) it was really frustrating to follow the announcements and make lots of adjustments accordingly, since the original video was created 4 years back. Lost’s of things have changed it seems. I should have purchased a course which was originally created in this year instead of 2017.
Bohdan Zhyhun –
An all-encompassing, comprehensive and yet comfortable course to learn! One of the best on development for WordPress!
Zoárd Ehmann –
This course is far beyond my expectations! Brad is an amazing instructor and the pace is just perfect to follow. By the end of the course, the new contents (plugin development) became much harder to follow, but still manageable. The only thing I missed are the challenges for the students to have a hands-on experience without exact guidance. Except for those, everything was really well covered and I’m really amazed about Brad’s attention to all the small details and nuances. I can just recommend this course for everyone who is interested in WordPress development, because as I can see, the documentation is not so friendly and this course covers a lot of useful stuff! I was doubted about WordPress’ capabilities first, but not anymore. As Brad said a hundred times, you can do probably anything with code.
Brad’s personality is just a really huge plus to the course. 🙂
This project is exciting and a lot of fun, definitely recommend it!
