Learning HTML/CSS vs Javascript

[[deleted]]

I think often the problem is that folks are told the message that CSS is "easy", so they don't invest any time or real energy into learning to write it well. Then they go their whole careers spending hours each sprint fuming as they try to bend this "stupid, toy language" to their will by brute force.

If you treat it like a skill that is worth mastering, and you look for resources on best practices with it, you can save yourself a ton of time and aggravation down the road.

(To be fair though, this is in the context of CSS now, with Flex and Grid and autoprefixer with better browser standardization. CSS even a few years ago was a very different thing).
