1. How to assign names to grid lines.
2. Shorthand for adding columns and rows.
3. How to add grid gaps.
4. How to assign names to cells in a grid.

Tomorrow it'll be D!

Yay! I just finished the module on CSS grid. I already feel somewhat like a pro, I honestly cannot wait to finish this course on CSS so I'd do all the HTML and CSS projects on frontendmentor.

I learnt some new stuff btw, they include:
1. The fit-content property.
2. How to position grid elements.
3. How to position the grid itself.
4. Making the grid responsive with media queries.
5. Sizing automatically generated rows and columns.
6. Comparison between explicit and implicit grid.
7. The auto-fill and auto-fit values.
8. How to create a dense grid.
9. Comparison between flexbox and grid.

Later D!

What torrent downloader do you use?
Re: Diary Of An Aspiring Software/web Developer by MirthOsas(m): 12:34am On Sep 17, 2021
Hey D!

My head aches,grin grin as I just finished a challenge on frontendmentor. The issue now is creating a repository on GitHub, but doing that seems like one herculean task. Navigating through GitHub is another learning curve on its own.

I think there's a module on git and GitHub in the full stack course I downloaded initially, I'll have to go through that.

Hey buddy, regarding the torrent ish, I really don't know why the download seems slow asides bad network. You could try using ADM too - another torrent downloader.

Preferably, you could download the rar files instead, this helped me at a point where my torrent download wouldn't go past 90%.
Re: Diary Of An Aspiring Software/web Developer by MirthOsas(m): 2:54pm On Sep 20, 2021
So I started a new module on transformation.
I went through the part that was on 2-D, and I didn't quite understand the part on 3-D.

I might just leave the part on 3D and move on to the next module, then revisit it later on.

I learnt about the following:
1. The transform property.
2. The transform-origin property and it's attributes.
3. The rotate and translate functions.
4. The skew and scale functions.
5. The transform shorthand.

Later D.

1. Nesting.

Re: Diary Of An Aspiring Software/web Developer by MirthOsas(m): 11:07pm On Oct 11, 2021
Hey D!

I started the js course today, although it's more of an introduction to what js is all about, and what I would gain from the course.

I learnt that:
1. JavaScript is a dynamically interpreted (compiled on the fly) and weakly typed (data types being automatically assumed) programming language used to make webpages more dynamic.

2. Js is a hosted language which can be run on different environments such as the browser, server, etc.

3. Js engines are built into browsers ( V8 for chrome and SpiderMonkey for Firefox) which are used to parse (read and understand) Js code, compilation into machine code and execution.

I'll be starting the main deal tomorrow.. See ya!
Re: Diary Of An Aspiring Software/web Developer by Smartlight(m): 9:13pm On Oct 12, 2021
Please Boss can I link up with you.
MirthOsas:
Hey Diary smiley

I created you to keep track of my progress as I venture into learning software/web development and eventually become an established developer.

Today I downloaded a course: The Ultimate Full Stack Web Developer Bootcamp by Kalob Taulien. Going through the contents, Kalob advised that one of the best editors is VS Code, so I downloaded it too.

So far, I have learned how to customize the VS Code editor; create an html file; add the html, head, title, body, bold, italic and underline opening and closing tags. I also learned how to link different pages both internal and external.

Tired already, see ya tomorrow my dearest diary. cool


P.S: Special thanks to the ogas at the top, the likes of @tensazangetsu20. Going through your thread on the languages newbies should learn was a huge source of motivation. I'm grateful boss.

Omo Diary ehn, this JavaScript is making me remember that I did some sort of programming in school,grin grin thank goodness they didn't finish me with visual basic that year. grin

I started the main deal of the js course today, and the course is pretty nice for now. So far I've learned about:
1. How to import js to a webpage.
2. Intro to variables: declaration and definition; acceptable ways to write var names.
3. Data types: numbers, text/strings.
4. Template literals.
5. How to add line breaks to strings for easier readability.
6. Intro to functions: syntax and how to call functions.

Tomorrow D.
