1st writing in Learning Journal

First 2 weeks, Fall 2020

These last few weeks have been full of new information.  I have learned the basic layout for HTML and have gained a rudimentary understanding of how html and css interact.  I am surprised and pleased with the little bits I have learned so far because I was a little overwhelmed when I first started this class.

A curious email dropped into my inbox “How I learned to code in six months,” by Meaghan Jones. I read it and then joined a program called One Month. One Month HTML is a four-week course that intends to show how to build your first website, learning HTML, CSS, FTP, SEO, Responsive Web Design, Blogs and other things. This isn’t a pitch for them. They dropped me into a course on Ruby. Really?! I am a fledgling, but I thought, let’s try it.

Yes, I am a fan of these learning journals, and yes, I contradict myself because I often find myself forgetting to do them… However, I’ll go over the last few weeks of class!

I’ve loved all these classes. I’ve done all 4, starting with Natalie and ending with Bill. It’s been fantastic, challenging, and fun. It’s been hard and really, you put some blood, sweat, and a few tears, into figuring everything out. Once you do though, it’s so rewarding.

Week 13

These past weeks, I’ve been working on designing my new portfolio site. I’ve researched others sites, but I’m thinking on redesigning again. I guess it’s great practice while I’m learning how to use XD. I’m using XD to create the proto for my portfolio site. I find the videos awesome and very easy to follow.
