So this month has been pretty relaxed. Apparently, the first Exam is supposed to be hard, but I found that it isn't if you study the material. The instructor gives several links an an eBook that are really beneficial. I especially love the O'Reilly series. Studying for several hours for about three days helped me to get a 100% on the first Exam. It's only hours before the second, and I'm feeling confident. I thought I'd take a few minutes to make a post about the work that I've done before I get back to my Lynda videos.
So each lab in this class touches on particular aspects and categorizes CSS in a way that's beneficial and easy to learn. There are some concepts that were challenging to grasp at first, such as the Cascade and Specificity, but once I understood them at their roots, I felt a lot better about the class and information came a lot easier.
So below, is a complete list of links for what I've done for this class. The requirements were that we only had to make these links work for Firefox, so apologies to those of you who use Chrome or something else. I'll be sure to go back in and add my vendor prefixes later, so check back!

Hi, firstly great work on Rhinocrunch's website it looks amazing. Secondly which editor do you use and do you have any advice/tips/helpful sites for JavaScript. I'm currently studying for a computer games development degree and part of it involves using HTML5 focused around the use of JavaScript... Thanks in advance :)
ReplyDeleteI personally prefer Coda. I think that's one of the best editors out there if you don't mind forking over $75.00 for it. (Mac Only) Otherwise, I just use Notepad+ for Windows. Text Wrangler is also another good one for free. There are a lot of great sources for JavaScript, however I absolutely adore the O'Reilly series. Look for "JavaScript: The Definitive Guide, 6th Edition". Sitepoint also has a lot of great information: http://reference.sitepoint.com/javascript
