Winds of change in here.
I am thinking about investing my time exclusively for Front-end learning. Wish me luck!
How about you all? If vou need to make a change to pursuit your objectives and dreams, just do it! Be happy ok? Ok!❤
Theweb-design community is probably one of the most active when it comes to sharing knowledge, but sometimes that might not be enough for everyone to understand what’s being shared. On many cases, one would need some insights on the matter already, which might leave beginners out of the equation if content creators aren’t careful.
Web-design is a very broad subject and there are many technologies to learn and paths to take. However, the very first steps into the world of web-design are quite universal.
It may be tempting to dismiss HTML and CSS for the fact that they’ve been around for quite a long time. However, they are still the foundation of how websites are built and they’re as important as ever.
HTML structure can arguably be vital for SEO (search engine optimisation), while CSS helps to keep your page looking beautiful, lightweight, and interactive. Furthermore, both languages play a crucial role in accessibility!
Learning these two languages will help you plan and build better end products by properly identifying potential improvements and opportunities for innovation. So, don’t hesitate in diving in and learning as much as possible about HTML and CSS!

Practice leads to perfection, and you won’t be able to fully understand web-design if you don’t get your hands dirty.
So, what better way than building your own website? This is one of the first steps you should take alongside learning the foundations of web-design.
Pick a subject that you’re passionate about to start off and try to visualise what you’d like your website to look like. Maybe you’d like a header image? Or a landing page? Or maybe you’d like it to be mobile-friendly? All of these questions and more are relevant to come up with your initial design.
Do keep in mind, though, that it might be frustrating when you’re starting out! It’s normal not to understand what you’re reading or for things to simply not work the way you want them to. In fact, this isn’t quite a beginner’s problem - most experienced web-designers also face these frustrations! Don’t hesitate to reach out for help whenever you need it.

One of the biggest challenges you will be facing - as any beginner in any field - is staying confident.
Every field has its experts and those people who seemingly have it all together. You’re going to come across gorgeous portfolios with incredible projects, and that might either encourage you to follow their steps or it might lower your confidence because your goals seem too far away.
Remind yourself that these people weren’t born knowing how to do what they do. They were once in your shoes, probably feeling the same way about their “web-designer idol”.
Don’t beat yourself up for feeling down sometimes. It’s all part of the growing and learning processes. Fight the urge to compare your work with that of experienced designers, and instead acknowledge how far you’ve come and keep your eyes on the finish line. It will be worth it!
If you’re unable to keep your confidence up, reach out to other designers. They will likely support you and encourage you to carry on working on your project(s).
Every new journey comes with its challenges but the fulfilment we get from overcoming them is much more worth it than the struggles we may face, so hold on tight!
Looking back on your progress and realising how far you’ve come is an incredible feeling and it will push you to keep moving forward, opening doors to new opportunities - and who knows, a great career!

Hello [coders, programmers, developers, software engineers]
I’m currently knee deep into a front-end coding bootcamp at the Georgia institute of Technology. My goal is to find a job as a front end developer when I get out, or another role writing code.
I’ve been writing code as a hobby for the past 15+ years - Mostly web development and python. This course provides lessons, practice, and projects for most of the front-end and some of the backend languages, libraries, frameworks, etc. that I need to get a job in the industry(Including projects to display in my portfolio.)
The reason I told you all of this is that I’m looking for someone to look at my code and projects to review and critique them.
If you wouldn’t mind helping me out with this, reply here, message me, or you can join my slack channel: Code Review

Day 4: Today I played around with the Bootstrap documentation. It’s very easy to explore its many features. Then, I wanted to work on playing CSS animations on scroll. I was able to create a codepen using popular music meme titles.

Day 2: Learning more about the HTML DOM document object access and manipulation. I made a dice game and played sounds on a drum kit with Angela Yu’s Web Development course on Udemy. I also decided to change the Wikipedia page about Rickrolling to Cakerolling for fun!
