specificity!!! I can't believe.. You are the only person that actually brought this topic from all the videos that I saw about css so far.. Thanks beardy!
Just wanted to comment to say that I extremely appreciate all the videos you make. I find them super helpful to someone who is interested in web design/programming and I really really appreciate all the work that you put into these. I just feel bad and I think you deserve to have so many more views! Your personality in your videos is just the perfect mix of being funny/helpful/serious. These are a great set of tutorials I hope you have many more to come and I hope many more people find out about this channel!
Thanks a lot thisbechristian! I really enjoy them and I like growing the channel. But it is a lot of work, a lot, lot of work. So comments like these, where people are appreciative and understanding really mean a lot to me. More than millions of views and subscribers. I don't monetize so I'm not really looking for a pay-out. Just want to be helpful and meet cool people and have fun. So thank you. and welcome to the channel :)
aha moment was when I realized specificity existed and that there's a numerical scale. then i understood why my pages never did what i needed them to do. mind blown! (small mind, I know)
But more than that was what you showed me me with adding the selectors to go from display: none; to display: block;. That was awesome! On to your next video now. Thanks so much for making these!
my aha moment was when i understood that list-items are not below each other because of line-breaks (console thinking) but because they are blocks which push each other to the next line and to get them all into a single line you dont have to get rid of "line breaks" but remove the blockyness and tell them to float. also indents are not done by "tabs" but by margins.
My "Aha" moment was understanding positioning and using containers. I still am learning more about positioning but since I have started learning it, it has made my life easier.
DevTips I have and it helped me out ttremendously your videos are a bit quirky buuuut highly effective in the learning process with this short little CSS segment I went from OK in CSS to now understanding more than some of my web design buddies. They actually skipped some of the fundamentals and are good at what they do, but missed out on key things. Do you have any videos on LESS and other preprocessors? I am really interested in learning more about this.
DevTips Also I am a PC guy so I use outlook. I recently came across you video on coding emails. I want to code my own emails and make them look as professional as possible what would you recommend? The HTML editor you use is that only for OS?
Mind Blown_@(";# ** This is the aha moment for me, i started coding two months ago and this is the aha moment when i realized of how much CSS is capable of. Thanks
I just wanted to say that my AHA moment was the " click on peek to show boo in a pink box" with the adjacent CSS selector + ... I just couldn't believe that something I've always done with a bit of JS took one line of CSS ... Cheers mate :p
Heh.. A-HA! moment... :D for me was your good sense of humour.. nah it was rather HA-HA! moments, but seriously it was - * { margin: 0px; padding: 0px }, man you changed my life... It was so obvious and so hidden in same way. Previously I was like a,p,i,b,div,body etc. { margin: 0px; padding: 0px }. Ya know, I am not skilled much in CSS & HTML cause mostly was in DTP up to this time in my life but always wanted to shift to web developing some day and thanks to your awsome work you make my dreams come true. Cheers bro!
On one hand I'm angry that I didn't get this stuff when I was in high school. On the other hand I'm glad that I'm learning this now that the development of web pages is interesting and flexible.
The moment for me was when I realized I could use a single external stylesheet for an entire website. For a basic design, this meant 50 lines of code could define the look and feel of _thousands_ of pages... and better still, it would load faster as a result.
The aha moment when I found out about flexbox. Damn... Anyway, nice video brother, it is a good video, really. good. yes.. haha sorry xD keep up the good work
I'm still a newbie in WebDev, but would you reccommend writing CSS to do animate-y flying steampunkery spidery... things rather than JavaScript? How much does developing in CSS rather than affect page speeds?
The music on 2:00 is too loud compairing to your speech i can't clearly hear you, Travis. And becomes annoying beacause of that. Hope you will take that in mind:) (listening on yamaha hs5, so it should notbe the problem of mine speakers) And so much great thanks to you. To all your work here it's so great! best tuts on the web, the material is delicious mmm great video about positioning, thanks a lot for all your great work, bro!
Hi eveye one I start to make some html page with css and the result with ie and Firefox is different. Is it normal ? Have you a solution ? Thanks for your help.
Just a tip mate, the music in these videos are a little high it was distracting when trying to take in all the information you was telling me, great video though :)
My oh shit moment using css was when using inspecting element just clicked for me. Once you have some decent knowledge of both you can modify elements in real time then just copy in paste to a ...mmmm custom.css file. Bazinga
So I know most of HTML, most of CSS , and a little of JavaScript/jquery. Should I focus on learning more JavaScript or should I attempt to master HTML/CSS first ?
I would recommend building projects from start to finish. In this process you will learn what you need to learn. I'm serious. You don't need to master anything, you need to learn how to build things. There is a nuanced difference. So pick a project and start today.
yes! The skill of figuring out what you don't know, and being able to be resourceful enough to overcome your limitations is the best skill you can work on.
Sorry if I missed this info in another video of yours , but do you have a place or know of a place where you can upload your website and have other members of the community review it and offer suggestions? I know there are some on google like criticue.com but I wanted to know if you knew of a better source, perhaps one that consisted of the Dev Tips community itself.
hahaha I am gonna spread the word on your stuff man. You have put so much time and effort into your channel and it is super relatable. You have captured fun in the word Progrfunamming
This truly was an eye opener, all the CSS basics vids are amazing. A massive help for me ( a CSS noob ). I have been learning through freecodecamp.com, a great site for learning for beginners but its videos like these that mention other aspects of CSS that make you realise just how much you can actually do with it.
Just recently found your channel with great tuts, but MAAAAN what's with your unbearable background noise (aka and cant fully approve to call it bands"music") ???!!!!!! not sure I'll make to the end of any of your vids if they're all the same. Side note: great stuff, redoing your "noisy" vids would be cool
