Well motivating platform for a… Well motivating platform for a beginner. Not push too much and free users also can be benefited by Hyperskill.

A great website for beginners A great website for beginners to learn both backend and frontend programming. Of course, some topics may not always be thoroughly explained, but overall, it's an excellent place not only to study development but also to improve your English language skills. Solid five stars. The only drawback is the high cost.

General impression Java basics I have chosen the learning approach without a fee in order to find out whether the form, style of educating programming topics suites me in general. I must say yes. I can recommend the form, the style. The Java basics are tought well. Also the exercises that follow chapters of theory in order to repeat the topic are designed very well as tasks of different difficulty are provided to get accomplished. Also a link in the excercises back to theory concerned is offered. A few times it appears that theory linked to support the solution doesn't stick to the task. This can be solved by reviewing the theory sections. As it doesn't take too much time I feel this is okay.

Improvements It's a good learning platform, however there is a bunch of ambiguous questions with unclear answers or questions with wrong andwers in React js where there is said to remove the App.js file.

JetBrains IDE integration What I really like of Hyperskill is the integration with JetBrains IDE. A learning tool that integrates and gives an opportunity to get to know our IDE better (key shortcuts, preference changes, tabs etc.). When I got my PHPStorm company licence it wasn't hard to work with because I use some IDEs since 90s but still. There's a lot new options that JetBrains Academy plugin and Hyperskill help to learn. Only one thing I miss on the Hyperskill page is to have two study plans opened. Or easier way to jump from study plans like I want to learn C++ from the beginning and develop my SQL skills. Great work Hyperskill Team!
