This course is really good to start learning about creative coding. In my opinion, you have to be a person who is comfortable facing problems and finding the answers in other platforms by yourself. Some of the links and info are outdated and I faced many problems that were not easily answered in the forum. I had to use YT tutorials, dive into GitHub, and use chatGPT to find answers. Otherwise you can get stuck. Bruno's classes are great, but you definitely need to be self-taught.
