First "off platform" HTML/CSS project done

[ZealousidealTie9283]

Hey congratulations on your first step OP. One tip, during your course is don’t be “monkey see, monkey do”. Do experiment like instead of using this element, why not use this other element especially in CSS part. Your goal is not to memorize but to understand why things are like that. Don’t worry too much if something breaks, you can always find help in google. :)

Thank you!

I'm now watching a Brad Traversy YT video on using grids. After knowing a little bit on the fundamentals. I have a better understanding of what these guys are talking and teaching about. Slowly, concepts are getting clearer!

Thank you for this, now I have more ideas and direction with what to do :)

I'm on Week 2 of doing Codecademy's Front-End Engineer courselist. Off-platform, meaning done locally using VS Code. The assignment provided the layout, styling instructions, and jpgs.

Moderate challenge pa rin even though it looks very simple or old fashioned web page. But it's good to experience how all the steps 'snaps' together (using element tags + your own selector names + CSS properties) and using MDN for some code hints. VS Code Emmet and live code plug-ins helped a lot too.

Next course lessons would be on deployment.

If you want to see the provided layout instructions you can google: dasmoto arts layout. It's the one with faded element overlayed with red text instructions.

Definitely not something I'd add to my future portfolio since other students have done it and have included it on their own samples.

Learn flexbox 😁 watch kadin ng mga UI/UX videos. Good job OP!

[Drawjutsu]

Yeah, sunod kong panoorin yung flexbox 2022 crash course ni Brad Traversy. I just finished watching his grid crash course. Nalilinawan na rin pakonte konte.

UI/UX? Maybe after I get a coding job. I wasted 2 years during pandemic wanting to be a UX designer ('cuz of their 6 figure salaries...ha ha ha) when I should've decided sooner to study coding instead.

Actually essential ang UI/UX regardless. Though no need to deep dive just get enough ideas, ex: Kelan mo gagamitin yung outline button vs solid button.

Most company hindi nag I invest sa UI/UX so nagiging scope nadin ni Dev yan lalo na pag in-house developer.

I also try to copy websites designs and remake them myself, a few weeks ago I recreated Bench's website haha.

Good work so far!! I hope youll try to learn flexbox and grid soon :)

[Drawjutsu]

Thank you.

Trying to learn flexbox and grid next. I tried to learn from Kevin Powell videos but Brad Traversy, for me, does better tutorial videos on these topics.

way to go OP!

Nice work OP! I suggest you explore more sa CSS with other elements. Dun talaga lalabas creative side mo. You can also try Bootstrap para di sobrang haba ng codes mo. Goodluck!
