First learning session - Scrimba📖

Source: Dev.to

First session

Time used: approx. 2 hours.

I went through Intro to HTML and Intro to CSS.

HTML

• Various basic HTML tags
• Explanation of “ elements
• Input fields, images, lists
• Proper HTML structure
• Anchor tags
• How to deploy a website (via Netlify)

CSS

• How to link CSS files
• Width and margin properties
• Inline vs. block elements
• Centering and styling of buttons
• Flexbox basics

This material is very basic for me—I’ve covered it before, but I needed to revisit it to bring the knowledge back to the forefront. I watch some videos at 2× speed and complete all the “mini‑tasks” provided.

I’m currently coding directly in Scrimba’s learning environment rather than using an IDE. When I tackle larger projects, I’ll switch to VS Code. So far it’s been fairly easy, though I expect it will get more challenging as I progress.
