What is Microsoft's relationship to coursera?
I have sent multiple requests in to coursera, to get clarification and resolution for my concerns, and have been totally ignored.
64 views, no replies. Tell me where to go (where should I be posting this)...figuratively?
- Your question is impossible to answer. The title which is about Coursera but the detail in the link is about Visual Studio Code in Learn and there is no mention of Coursera
So what exactly is your issue?
- Some Microsoft courses are available on Coursera which is a paid training site
https://azure.microsoft.com/en-us/blog/teaming-up-with-coursera-on-new-azure-specializations-and-scholarships/
When you look at the courses on Coursera, they all appear to be the courses available for free on Microsoft Learn
From the link you supplied, it is a Microsoft Learn module and at the bottom of the page are two links 1) Troubleshooting https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/learn/support/troubleshooting and 2) Report feedback and this allows you to raise an issue. Select Product or functionality and then select Issue with SandboxJulian_Sharp I appreciate the information regarding the linkage between Coursera and Microsoft. If I understand you correctly, Coursera (with the monthly fee), gets you the sandbox, that saves you the cost of the resources that would be charged to you, in the same Microsoft free course. Especially if you keep trying again and again to get the work done.
I have used the troubleshooting links, in both Coursera, and Microsoft, to no avail. Whether direct from Microsoft, or through Coursera, the fact that I cannot get help to get through the problem that I am having, does not (to me), give great credibility to the quality of the courses.
- I have never experienced Coursera but the sandboxes are provided with Microsoft Learn and they include a Concierge Azure subscription
Having looked at the lab, I can follow your confusion - the VS Code in the Cloud Shell is limited
- F5 does not start debugging
- npm start errors
It looks like the steps were written for running on your local computer
The code steps you should perform on your local computer and the Azure create resource steps you can use the Cloud Shell
Later in the lab you will connect to the Concierge subscription in VS Code
