I've been kind of knocking around the idea of drafting up online courses in that area. Shrugged it off as potentially not having enough demand, but your comment is interesting. Love to learn more about the courses you're hunting for, can you elaborate?

So, Bit background about me. I am a compiler developer who has over the years picked up HTML/JS & CSS by reading/doing various tutorials. Now, I am good with HTML & JS but I am not able to make good looking websites. I know the very basics of CSS, have done various online tutorials, bought a bunch of books etc. Because of all this, I consider myself to be "intermediate" level CSS person (not advanced, not beginner). Now, 90% of courses on udemy, coursera start with teaching how to use HTML &(gasp) editor. Then they teach CSS tags, selectors etc. I am past the basics but cannot make Airbnb or Hipmunk quality. The projects they make you is basic portfolio. There are no courses (or they are very hard to google for)...

I am ready to pay 200-300$ for someone who will teach to make me quality, complex UIs(like Hipmunk).

So courses I am looking for 1) CSS for backend engineers 2) Advanced bootstrap (or other frontend foundations) 3 At this point, I am able to think of any course I would be interested in. Feel free to email me. Address in my profile.
