How to use Git and GitHub
Git and GitHub were absolutely new to me. But now I am so impressed by the power of such a great developer tool, that I try to encourage all my friends to start learning it.
Everything was new to me, therefore every subsequent command surprised me a lot).
I am 100% sure that I will use Git and GitHub almost every day on my future developer job!
I've learned a lot of shell commands. I've also mastered the basics of Linux Filesystem. Material was new, but quite easy to understand.
The only thing that wasn't easy to overcome for me was installing virtual linux box using vagrant. It took me 1 day searching for answers to solve errors that happend while vagrant up'ing:) Finally, I've got it!

1.What is Version Control
Despite a lot of similar material from Task 0 this course was very informative and constructive. It made my basic knowledge of Git much stronger through repeating fundamental concepts. Anyway, there were some new information and Git commands, such as what hidden .git file contains, power of git log with tons of flags(-p --stat --oneline ...), usage of .gitignore file, git tag to add labels to commits and the power of undoing things with reset, revert and git commit --amend.
2.GitHub & Collaboration
Exactly as with the previous course this course just reminded me how to use GitHub, but it also gave me some knew skills in reviewing existing works and commits, creating and reading issues and showed me the rebase power.
Intro to HTML & CSS
I've been working with HTML and CSS for a long time, so nothing was surprising or new for me. It just reminded me some fundamental things, but repeating is a good idea, especially with the basic stuff.
Responsive Web Design Fundamentals
It is absolutely another story. Although I have some experience using responsive web design techniques, this course surprised me with tons of new information of how to create great responsive websites. It gave me new strong understanding of basic concepts. Thanks, Udacity!)
Intro to JS
This course was the very first intro to JS for me, but surprisingly enough I didn't learn anything new:)
As it turnes out, my previous basic knowledge of C++, C# and OOP with C# really help me to learn the basics of another language. Everything is similar. Just change int, double, string, char, float, bool, long ... to VAR and that's it.
Anyway, some JS tricks such as hoisting, inline function expressions ... surprised me.
