Tried learning HTML/CSS through that site in 2006. Terrible experience, so I continued to use Dreamweaver for personal projects.
Tried learning again in 2014, after a career change: Excellent experience, so good that I go there first.
I simply did not grok responsive design until I read their article about floats and media queries. I was trying to get admitted into a bootcamp at the time, and my assignment was to recreate a landing page from a PNG image, without using Bootstrap or any other grid framework.
Most official sources of technical documentation online are written by and for developers, and assume a lot of prior knowledge. I never understood a lick of the official jQuery documentation either, until I went through W3schools section on it, and then later Jon Duckett's beautifully visual dead-tree book on JS and jQuery.
