An important reflection on the topic of online courses. While buying online course, you are not buying just the knowledge (it's available online for free in scattered, distributed, fuzzy, ambiguous forms). When buying (a good) online course you are buying knowledge that is curated, systematized and delivered in an interesting, easily digestible way (a system).
This. I bought such coure before because I like having course structured. Because I always have FOMO on some technology and souch course makes me feel like I am learning all that I will need to create particular app.

It is not about the content of the courses it's about the marketing and tricks used to market these courses and the false claims.
If someone comes to me and says that my company in 8 months will be worth 10 000 million euros without knowing what I'm doing.
It is the same as what these scam artists are doing. in 30+ hours you will be a 1 million euro developer.
I don't know anybody how is that good smart.
Agreed. But, I believe you (and most people) are smart enough to know that "get rich overnight" is a scam by default. Isn't it? :)
Sadly not.
Just google "onecoin scam".
Also, these scam artists don't target developers but people who want to become developers and don't know anything about development.
Again I don't want to post any links here in public.
But basically they are on the same level as some other famoues youtubers with millions of followers.
They are just normaly not in the filter bubble of 'normal' developers.

Hmm I'm a friend of learning the basics not how to fit example create a specific type of app.
A login is a login. Of course with different authentication strategies
Almost all lifecycle routines are the same they are just member different.
