As announced, this week my focus has been entirely on the CSS Grid properties. The first theory, then practice. Knowing Flex and Grid, I seriously wonder why Bootstrap or Bulma needs it? I wonder so much that I think I’ll put one of these backgrounds in the science plan for 2020.
Flexbox finally convinced me. I don’t know why, after my first encounter with a CSS Flexbox, I had a negative feeling. I don’t know what it resulted from. Maybe I didn’t understand how flexbox can be used to build a great webpage layout, or maybe I didn’t understand how to use flexbox correctly. I got to know the new tool, but I didn’t want to use it. This has changed this week. Why?
I finished the “WTF Co ten front end” developer training. This is probably the most important event of this week. Well past the deadline, but inspired by many interesting threads. Thanks to the topics covered in the WTF front end developer training, I got deeper into CSS and JavaScript. I even tried to learn React.JS, but after three weeks I found that I still didn’t know enough about JavaScript.
Long hours on the train and plenty of time to write a Pig Games app. The mechanics of the game wasn’t difficult to write because the game itself is not complicated. It is different to prepare a responsive and desktop version. It took by far the longest time, but the satisfaction is complete.
A week of returns. I returned to the WTF “Co ten Frontend” training and I returned to the Strip Expotentation project. In the first case, I promised myself that I would finish the training as soon as I immersed myself in React. I haven’t delved into React yet, but I’ve spent a lot of time learning about CSS. In the second case, I felt that it could be done better. Especially since two people tested the application and found a few elements for improvement.
Another week with CSS and learning about its possibilities. This is also the week in which I completed my first CSS training project and, more importantly, learned the limitations of this language. Let’s get down to business.
