There are too many coding errors for beginners to start with. Formatting in the coding section is hard to read because it provides no proper indention. The author should specify the versions of packages he/she used to create examples; there's always a huge difference if we choose the wrong version that may contain breaking changes. Essential concepts are not clearly explained.
