@marcin mikołajczak Please, all that is feminist agenda, don't get fooled, mate! Why you don't see companies fighting to have more male nurses or in child care? People should do that, what they want. Women will never be attracted by tech as much as men. They should finally stop that shit!
You can only explain at this level and make people understand it easier if you are directly involved in working groups 🤷♂️ Jen is the bestest of bests 🙌🙏
How could there be even one dislike? This is possibly the best overview I’ve ever seen... super clear and concise, and her delivery style is so cool. I’m now a fan.
Thank you Jen. I had to jumpt to your site(s). I came for CSS, I stayed for you. I'm impressed, intrigued, and undeniably smitten. I'm surprised and somewhat taken aback that you are in NYC during the pandemic years. Frisco is awesome, my heart will always be NYC, my location is the Midwest. My career spans back to 1996. Not as illustrious, some speaking, etc... Yeah, there you are, thanks for this, good stuff. I'd love to have dinner, go for a walk in Central Park and/or the pier in Frisco, name it, I'm there. LOL, I'm going to bed, been at it since 4am and it's 9pm now. You are lovely, talented, intelligent, and, and and... LOL, I know, it's not a dating website. Thank you Jen and I hope you are fairing well in my favorite city on this planet. Hopefully we'll see the end of this thing in the near future.
Being self taught. Trying to figure out floats and displays was frustrating. You fix one thing and something else breaks.Grrrr! This grid stuff has opened a whole new world for me. I might even be able to make a career out of it one day!Thank you for your time and explanation. They need a two thumbs up for videos like this!
I love that this doesn't have any css property! It's a blessing not trying to memorize properties but only concepts that will be explored thoroughly in a second moment! Thanks!!!!
Thank you for being precise, concise and none of that annoying & useless "ahhh" or "ummm" none sense. You remind me of a Jen I met in 1991 at Keesler AFB in Biloxi, MS. Very intelligent and helpful.
I love all your videos. Very calming, relaxing & soothing while teaching. And the way you explain things makes me want to learn more. :) ALL your videos are the best explanation ive ever found on the internet. Thank you.
Thank you very much, a very complete and professional explanation, your English is very fluent and well pronounced for those of us who are learning this beautiful language.
You clearly understand this in your core. No cuts, just wonderfully clear. Thanks! I'm coming to learn grid before really having much experience with flexbox so I want to learn both and make informed decisions on my future layouts. You've helped me a lot already.
Thank you!!! So much! New to CSS after learning some HTML back in the late 90's. I've been so confused, and more confused the more I read. FINALLY it makes SENSE! I'm with ToughCandy. Mozilla give her a raise! Jen you are amazing.
Thanks a lot Jen! A perfect entry for me. I need to learn how you do it, that it fits for all browsers without a ton of media queries. I like that. Thanks for sharing. Have a good time.
These videos are fantastic! By far the most concise and easy to understands explanation of any programming concepts I have ever seen. Thank you Jen!! :D
These are some of the best videos I have come across on any technical topic -- extremely clear delivery and they cover the content at a good pace. But the suggestion to use a element as a generic container is nasty from a semantic point of view and not something I would expect from an educator in this field!
Jen, thank you for explaining it so well and for your awesome narrative style! I came here after watching the wonderful Rachel Andrew’s vids which made me start using the grid. But then you add so much necessary depth and reasoning!
Great explanation! You mentioned trying to get an orange line down the left - you could add a "border-left:solid 3rem orange" style element to achieve something like this. (Answering a long time after the video went live so things may well have progressed by now!)
Programming tutorials on youtube would be so much more enjoyable if Jen was doing them. Just so informative without making you feel intimidated. Bravo.
Thanks to you I went from never having made a single grid, to figuring it out and making one, without having to read another lame tutorial...THANK YOU!!
Thank you so much. This is the best tutorial I've ever seen about Css stuff. It is really usefull and I want you to keep teaching and make videos about Css.
Thank you so much for this explanation. I have been using flexbox and have been having a hard time getting layouts like I want them. Excited to get started with CSS Grid!
There's something that bothers me a lot these days since I'm very new to web dev (I started learning in January, with no prior knowledge on the subject matter). And I found myself confronted to a lot of things going on, I mean I feel like I'm in a middle of a huge shift right know, sometimes I start thinking that it's maybe not the best time to do it, then after doing a lot of research I've discovered that It's never a good time to do it if I look at it from that perspective, since it's evolving in a pace where no one can find the perfect spot to start with...bottom line: Do It, and start now!! Everyone have felt or will feel the same way when starting to code for sure!! Now my question is: Experimented people always suggest that we need to know the basics, and it's something that I agree with, but when it comes to new things, do we need to go through the old stuff?, I mean do I really need to know about the float based layout techniques and frameworks Or I move on and work with a newest and easiest technique ? In other words, witch is better : learn CSS Grids without putting the old stuff in your mind? Or learn the old stuff (basics) and then "purge that out of your mind" and work with CSS Grids? ps: I love your vids they're very informative! THANK YOU!
As someone with over 10 years of experience I'd advise, as you look into LAYOUT 1) learn flex box first 2) learn CSS grid second or at the same time; 3) read about float but SKIP all "float layouting knowledge", as it is indeed outdated and was a hack; it's still very much useful to learn all display modals developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/CSS/display (the basics of how DOM elements flow)
Alisa Muzafarova Thank you so much for the reply, finally a sincere answer, no one is using the word "skip" anymore as though they've been through the whole process since the 80's or so..Thanks again..have a great day.
Alisa Muzafarova I'm also very new to this so I don't really understand how accepted or "best practice" is the Grid model or any layout model. Everywhere I hear is that accessibility comes first, and if a fairly new feature is still not accepted by a user in Cambodia using a 2008 browser, you shouldn't be using it.
I was a little confused when you explained that only direct children of the container are placed on the grid and that children of those are not placed on the grid. I was interpreting "not placed on the grid" too literally. I now believe I understand what you said to mean that only direct child elements of the container can be items and have item-specific css attributes and their children will be placed on the grid but not as items but rather as the item's content. I tried making a grandchild element an item and the browser rendered the parent of the grandchild as an anonymous (implicit) item and its child (the element upon which I actually placed grid-row and grid-column attributes on) as the anonymous item's content. I think your videos and presentations are awesome. Watching them has reignited my love for web development after having walked away from it a few years back due to illness. Thankfully I am 100% well now and dying to get back into the game and in large part that is because of you. Thank you so much.
This is very helpful feedback! You are right, I could explain how the flow works to put all grandchildren+ onto the grid as a child of a placed item. Yup. I'm glad you figured it out.
Just found your videos today: It's awesome seeing a woman teaching web design/development (almost every place I've been to, the dev department is a bunch of dudes), and I'm learning SO MUCH. Thank you for explaining everything in detail. As a graphic designer trying to improve on my front-end development, it's wildly helpful. :)
Sorry i've been on holiday! I notice i've got a few new Grid vids to catch up on. If i come across anything in my Grid travels I will add a reply to your latest videos :) Thanks again.
with all due respect, you do not need subgrids, I am already nesting grids within grids succesfully using css grid, nested grids have a totally diferently layout and if you wish you can make this complex whole structure responsive too. THANKS for your video !
may be a what she meant was if there a specification for sub grids to cater for basic layout design it could already solve most of the problems! Yes you can already do stuff without them but you and i or other person might have 3 different ways to approach it. My views :)
Can you please detail or show example how we can make the last part you talked about happen? I am trying to do exactly that, have some sprt of color scheme or stripe run down or across or maybe even diagnol but can't seem to find a way using grid that will also be responsive. Plz plz plz
Do you have an example of the tag stripe on a track that can go across a page or go down an entire page? I have been looking for way to perfect this and perhaps a diagnol line etc..
