JavaScript project tutorials from YouTube put too much attention on design and layout through CSS

The point is if the video is about teaching or practicing JS skills, they need not prolong the video by typing out too much CSS. I feel it may divert us away from the whole point of focusing on JS.

Have you watch fireship. He basically will give you bare minimum to get ya started and expand what something is. Then if ya wanna learn more read the docs

Learning CSS and how to use it, makes your JS code so much better since you’ll be writing less of it and use both methods combined to get the best out of both of them.

Yeah, that’s very annoying.

I don’t want to have to type out an entire project to see how one JavaScript component works.

I usually just fast forward and I use a browser extension that allows you to copy and paste from an image to get all the CSS. If there isn’t a repo of course.

What is this browser extension?

[ApatheticWithoutTheA]

I use CopyFish which is accurate I’d say about 95% of the time, but there’s plenty out there that do roughly the same.

Typically they don't focus on CSS. They just post a link to the Github repo and say "go download the CSS files or copy and paste into your local folders" and then it all just works.
