The Staggering Frontiers of CSS

For any CSS newbie I would encourage them to learn Flexbox and Grid. I find that layout is the most confusing and those two display modes have greatly cleaned things up. It’s amazing how much they behave the way you intuitively expect them to. They eliminate… I’m going to dangerously say… most newbie gotchas.

Beyond that, 100% in agreement. There’s just so much and when it all interacts it can be a nightmare.

Finally figuring out Flexbox was the moment I stopped dreading writing CSS because it does make a lot of things so much easier

I recommend the game Flexbox Froggy, which is how I learnt it

Flexbox Froggy is great. Thanks for the recommendation.

I have been writing code for over 10 years, I just end up using bootstrap every time.
