La formation était plutôt intéressante dans son global, animé par un formateur disponible. En ce qui concerne le temps accordé à chaque sujet, il en faudrait plus aux vu des nombreuses thématiques présentes, mais cela est plus du à cause du temps limité de seulement 4 jours pour la formation, qui se comprends. Toutefois, il faudrait alors proposer une autre formation sur Node.js avancée pour les thématiques qui vont un peu plus loin. Je ne crois pas avoir eu de mention à ce sujet où de dispo.

Très bon équilibre entre théorie et pratique.Le fait de manipuler en direct plutôt que de lire les slides est un vrai plus.
