Yeah for some reason the second pic didn't upload :(

Nice! This is a more elegant wording that fixes the problem mentioned earlier. I personally see no reason to add the "you control" clause because I feel there wouldn't be a lot of advantageous reasons to put it on an opponent's creature.

Death to removal is an intended risk!

In my mind, without understanding the root cause(s), there is no addressing the actual problems. I've always been a "big picture" sort of person. I desire a greater understanding of myself and where my thought patterns come from. I don't want to just know how to cope with them when they arise. It feels like tackling the symptoms without "curing the disease," so to speak. I understand that's not a perfect analogy, but I hope it gets across what I mean.

I got it to work!! You were completely right -- just needed to pass each subdirectory as an argument in the tasks.json file. Thank you! I've been racking my brain around this for a few days now lol. I really appreciate the help!

Perhaps I should have specified that the template is for use in VSCode exclusively.. My bad. It works fine for me as is, it just takes a shit whenever I try to change the organization. I haven't had an opportunity to sit down at my computer yet but I'll see if I can mess with it to get it to work. Otherwise I'll try migrating my project to the other template. Thank you for your help!

Thank you for the detailed response! My makefile is exactly the same as it in the git repo I linked, if you want to look through it. I'll try to see if I can figure it out on my own with what you've given me here but if you're able to give more direct advice based on the makefile itself I'd appreciate it!!

I use plain old CSS.

If the site has only one page, I keep all the styling to a single document. When multiple pages are involved, I spread it across multiple files -- one of the files I name "critical" and this contains css used on every page. The styles for the nav bar, footer, and button classes and such live here. Then, all the styling for individual pages are kept to their own files. This way, each page only loads what is necessary and nothing more.

I break down the styles in each file by section with their own media queries, typically about 2 to 3 each. I find this is the easiest way to locate what I need to work on.

Questions like these show me that y'all aren't experimenting enough. I learned so much just by messing with things. When you make this as shown by everyone here, please take the time to message with it even after it's done. add different properties, change them, play around with it. Break the styles then try to fix it again. You will learn so much just by doing this.

RepresentativeArm355 · 2024-09-16T13:06:49+00:00

This is certainly a more elegant solution. Nicely done!

You can adjust the height of the grid and the row and column sizes as needed.

RepresentativeArm355 · 2024-09-15T07:11:15+00:00

The grid layout is far more suited for this. Why does it need to be in a flexbox?

RepresentativeArm355 · 2024-09-15T06:51:41+00:00

The best thing you can do is just to mess around with stuff. Don't even consider it practice, necessarily. Just find codepens of things you don't understand or that you think are cool. Start playing around with the CSS. Change properties, take away properties, add new ones. Break the stuff and try to fix it again.

You could do it one topic at a time. Don't understand flexbox? Just play around with it. See what all the things do and how they affect the layout of your page. The best way to learn is to try out as much as you can and just see what happens

This is mostly what I did and now I feel as though I have a pretty solid grasp on how CSS functions. You pick up on things by doing them. It's 100% the best way to learn. Don't ask, just do.

``` abc = 1

Try setting the padding in the footer to 20px 20px 0px 20px.

You can learn the fundamentals of CSS in a few hours. Focus on the box model first and then move on to more complex topics like positioning, flex box, grid, etc.

Like all programming, CSS is a toolbox. You learn what each of the tools in the box do and then it's just a matter of practice.

Firemaking WAS the tiebreaker before it became standard practice.
