The past two weeks we\u2019ve learned about a lot of different tools and techniques and they have been very interesting.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n
Sass is a CSS preprocessor and is still popular today, even though with modern css having more features it is still important to understand it since it\u2019s used so much. I also used it on the bootstrap extra credit assignment and the way it works just clicks for me.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
As for Bootstrap I have used it before, but when I tried learning it I didn\u2019t know anything about plain CSS, which made understanding Bootstrap significantly harder. But after taking the web design courses here at Sierra, understanding how Bootstrap works was a lot easier for me and I understood a lot more on their documentation than I did years ago!

Parallax is a scroll effect that some websites might incorporate. It functions by having a background image\/s that moves ( or doesn\u2019t move ) with the content of the site ( not true parallax but that\u2019s what we focused on the past week ). I think Parallax is really neat but if overdone, it can be somewhat distracting. But that depends on the purpose of the site that\u2019s being designed. Sites where the text\/content is the emphasis, probably shouldn\u2019t use a complex parallax design. But if the purpose of the website is to \u201cwow\u201d the audience then I can see how a complex Parallax with a lot of motion could fit well into that.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
