WDS72 - How to Practice HTML and CSS?

Hi everyone, it's been 2 days seen my last post. So sorry, for this gap...but it was really unavoidable. I was also thinking what to do next in our web development journey. So let's discuss what I was planning...

The Plan

In the last 70 days, we have learned complete HTML and lot of CSS with various examples and layouts. We have covered almost all basic CSS needed for web development but yes, a lot is remaining which includes:

  • CSS Grid
  • CSS Flexbox
  • CSS Animations
  • Responsive layouts and much more...
But before going any further, I think we should practice what we have already learned so that we become perfect in what we know. 

How to practice?

According to me(and many others) there is no better way to practice web development than Free Code Camp. If you have never heard about, freeCodeCamp is a nonprofit organization that consists of an interactive learning web platform. It has small quizzes where you have to write a code which will be checked and if it is correct you go to next question.

Why I am telling this now?

Because we have completed the first part of their Front End Development and it's time for you to check how much you really learned in the last 2-3 months...The HTML and CSS part has approximately has 60 challenges and they are really nice for practice. One more reason is that I am going to be busy next week due to my exams so it will be unable to write a blog for next 5-6 days, but don't worry I will be back on next Saturday. Here is homework you will finish till then:

Homework

  1. Sign up for the Free Code Camp
  2. Complete the HTML and CSS part
  3. Sign up on Sololearn
  4. Complete HTML course on it
  5. If time permits, you can get more knowledge about various HTML and CSS concepts here:
    1. HTML Forms
    2. HTML Tables
    3. Multimedia Embedding 
Feel free to ask any doubts.That's all for today. In the next part, we will dive deep into CSS. Till then #keepCoding.

WDS85 - Animate the CSS(Part 3)

In the last two articles, we learned about animations in CSS and various ways to customize them with the help of iterations and animation delays. Now in today's article, we are going to learn more about them so that to customize them even more. Let's begin... Reverse Directions and Alternate Cycles The animation-direction property in CSS decides whether we want to play animation forward, backward or in alternate cycles. Following values are possible: normal - This is the default. Animation plays as normal(forward). reverse - The animation plays in reverse direction that is backward. alternate - The animation first plays forward and then backward. alternate-reverse - The animation first plays backward and then forward. Speed Curve of Animation Just like we used various ways to customize transitions in CSS some articles before, same functions can be used to change the speed of the animation. The animation-timing-function property specifies the speed curve ...

In the last article we learned following tags to enhance your HTML: <b> and <strong> tags <i> and <em> tags <small> <del> <mark> <ins> <sup> and <sub> tags Now let's move forward from styling and see some HTML elements so that we can write quotes in our documents comfortably.
