Day 22 Self-Study to Web Dev!
Studied the Factory Pattern today in JavaScript. After that I felt the patterns course was getting quite difficult for my current understanding of JavaScript, so I will be switching to a course that is more in my zone of proximal development soon!
=> Created this Pie Menu along with a flexbox tutorial..but made every pie option pumpkin pie! .. I thought the design layout could use some sprucing up with lots of pumkpin pie..
I took a look at CSS today with a course on Frontend Masters called “CSS Grids and Flexbox for Responsive Design.”
I usually love the courses on Fontend Masters and I thought this would be a good review of my CSS skills, but this particular course is making the topics way more complex than they need to be. Mainly due to the naming system used for classes by the instructor. The instructor is very knowledgeable! I just am struggling with understanding perhaps. Either way, I struggled through the murky waters to learn the following:
=> Floats
=> Flexbox (personally in a way that I would prefer not to use it XD )
=> Although, I did pick up on a few tricks such as [class*=”row-”]: , which will allow me to select all classes that contain “row-” in them.
Also this: * { box-sizing: border-box}; , which sets the width to content + padding + border.
=> Although I am kind of disappointed in myself today, in the end I learned a few new things. If today was rocky, tomorrow can only get better, so.. is it tomorrow yet??
=> All my code is here on Github!
=> Projects are live here on Codepen!
Hopefully tomorrow will be a better day!
