I have finished the HTML and CSS course offered by freeCodeCamp and started learning JavaScript, but the thing is it feels like the knowledge I have gained from the course has been slipping away. I know I should be making my own projects to expand my knowledge, but projects take a really long time and I don’t have the time for it, especially when I’m learning something new. Do you have any advice? Are there websites made for practicing HTML and CSS - similar to CodeWars and LeetCode?
Hi @itsxxtx
Instead of creating a project in a short amount of time, spend time writing down what needs to be done. Then, when you have spare time, focus on achieving three tasks from the list when you have a free moment. Make sure you turn off notifications, close email, set phone to quite mode.
As a general rule, for each hour of learning you should spent four hours reviewing, summarising, and applying what you learnt.
The idea here is to decrease quantity of learning, and increase quality and retention of learning.
You can search the web for practice projects, get inspiration from others, or create something for yourself, family and friends.
freeCodeCamp also offers the Odin Project.
Happy coding
