These past few weeks, I completed my Midterm design. It took me a long time but I’m really proud of how it turned out. After that, I learned that writing CSS from scratch to copy a design is really hard. In comparison, responsive design isn’t that bad.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n
After following the Audiospace directions, I felt like I understood everything more or less, but I didn’t have any idea how much I actually knew until I attempted the CSS challenges. It turns out I didn’t actually understand it a whole lot, but it was good to try so I could know what I didn’t know. I was surprised how simple the solutions ended up being, as well as making them responsive. I’m curious how similar those assignments were to the work that a web developer does. When I make a design in Figma, is that what would get sent to a web developer, who would have to match everything up in CSS? <\/p>\n\n\n\n
My other accomplishment this week was adding some cool features to my portal page: preview images for each assignment and responsive flex, changing from two to one column when the page shrinks to mobile view. I also changed the CSS around to be mobile-first. I think it could still use a bit of tweaking, and I wonder how difficult it would be to have the assignment previews generate automatically based on the link. Probably really difficult. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Intrigued to learn about SASS this week, I’ve seen that acronym thrown around on Codecademy and probably r\/programmerhumor, but I really have no clue what it is. Time to find out! <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
