Weeks 3 & 4 With Professor Mead

Oh man, what a good few weeks it has been in the development of the classes education. We went over and discussed the basic understandings of CSS in order to be able to properly troubleshoot our code later down the line. The biggest three things discussed are Specificity, Cascading, and Inheritance. Alongside our basic understanding of CSS we also learn how to apply a CSS reset or CSS normalize in order to have diversity and consistency within multiple types of web browsers! It’s a super useful tool if you want you’re creations to be properly displayed no matter what browser the end user has. We also cover typography, and really a lot of great articles involving typography! One of the topics of typography that stood out to me the most is kerning which is the space between letters. During my time as an intro to web design student I have noticed that fonts will “mush” some letter combinations together and I can’t stand it. Discovering kerning has allowed me to be able to look more in depth and hopefully I can apply it to my future work. Regardless of what we’ve covered in the past two weeks we definitely know that professor Mead is a great person who loves Llama’s and Lemmings.
