These three are SASS, Parallax, and Bootstrap. All in which have their own use. The two most important pieces of material that we learned was going through SASS and Parallax. For SASS, it feels like a tool to use if you really want to organize your code in a certain way. The way used is very similar to program coding. Someone can list different types of variables and just use those throughout the page. At the end of the day, it really becomes just preference whether someone prefers to just format the code of CSS the regular way or through SASS. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Parallax has been very interesting to go through. After going through the material, we learn about a lot of the common scrolling techniques. We learned how they are coded and used on a website. One of them that stood out was the sticky header. Sticky headers are common to see in general on websites, so seeing how it works was fun to go through. What was also interesting to go through were the true parallax examples. I chose to go through making something similar to example 1 for my challenge. Seeing the examples really do help with learning how they work, and how to manipulate the code to work the way you want it. I could not go through everything properly, but there is definitely a lot to learn and go through in the examples given in the folder. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>As for Bootstrap, it really was just a simple assignment. Mainly because Bootstrap is just a tool for lazy designers to use to make sites. They have their own set coding so it simply is copy\/pasting blank code onto whatever content you want, and does the work for you. Really the only use I can think for it is if you really are in a crunch where you have no time to type through basics, and need something to get a started in. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Other than that we are in our last month of the semester. The final projects and work will start to stack up and start to keep us occupied during the rest of the semester. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>We are coming towards the end of the semester with this last month.
