The naming of properties is so unintuitive or uninformative, the variety of hacks that are needed. Is there a book that contains all that information of all the tricks used out there? Or a way to think about it? I think I can't get over needing to memorize a lot of stuff.
- eyelidlessness 3y agoThanks for answering. I agree the naming in this case is unintuitive. A book will probably never be complete, for CSS or any web standards, as all of them are “living standards” at this point. But I’ve found MDN to be an excellent resource. As far as hacks, this would eliminate the need for one (or a set of them). As for memorization… well, I’ll put it this way: as CSS has grown more capable, I’ve forgotten more hacks—probably far more—than the remaining CSS I still need to know. I’m sure this doesn’t make CSS more appealing to you. It’s still complex, by necessity. But it is definitely learnable, arguably now more than it ever was.
- john_the_writer 3y agow3schools is also a great place.. And I believe they have a course you can run through.
