What is the best way of learning modern css?
- 0wis 3y agoInterested too. I did several full courses and exercises on it (Freecodecamp, W3, Mdn, Codepip…) and I still struggle a lot to create clear UI and have each HTML element where I want them. I am looking at CSS frameworks (BEM, Tailwind) but I would like to master « vanilla » CSS.
- toastal 3y agoIt’s not a direct method, but really, you should try a) study the source code of the big ‘frameworks’ such as Bootstrap (especially if you dig into the comments & issues / patches that fixed worse practices with better practices) & b) hit F12 to start inspecting sites that are doing things interesting that you’d like to know about (but keep in mind they might not be experts & how you might improve it).
- kekub 3y agoI recently enjoyed reading https://every-layout.dev https://every-layout.dev. Even though I considered myself to be quite good at CSS, some of the ideas covered in that book (like thinking about how big your elements should be and let the browser handle the breaking instead of relying on media queries) was eye opening for me.
