This course is quite practical, but it is outdated compared to the latest version of WP.

The course is good technically speaking. The graphic references are not reflected in the example. Perhaps the order of choosing a topic and starting to work on the page should be reversed. More clarification is needed regarding the relationship between posts and pages. A structural diagram of the technical flow is needed.
