HTML and CSS as Besties




Using HTML and CSS


After implementing the chosen Jekyll theme, a personal customization was the next step.
So, this meant deep exploring of the code behind, both related to site's structure and formating, existing Bootstrap and JavaScript librares, already imported within the Jekyll theme. Ok, some digging needed to be done.


A great starting point I found on Pluralsight's platform and #FreeApril possibility to enroll some courses. The one I found really helpful was "HTML and CSS: Creating a Basic Website" by Jon Friskics. It is an interactive course, which is a great learning approach, especially to a rookie, being myself.


Let's cut to the chase and create a basic website by using:

  • HTML - Content and Structure
  • CSS - Design and Display

Finally, all challenges in the course are pushed to the using-html-and-css repository. Gained basic knowledge, plus extra additional online exploring, both are applied in the process of building this website.
