TL;DR Can you please recommend some practical HTML/CSS tutorials that don’t just explain what selectors are and how to create a basic form but rather go in depth about CSS techniques. It would be even better if the author guided you through creating an untrivial layout.
I have made a serious mistake when I decided to concentrate primarily on Javascript and pay much less attention to my HTML/CSS skills.
I do understand most of the things usually considered intermediate but I have very little practice. I have tried the following:
- Shay Howe’s tutorials. Yes, they are great but the website that he is building is too simple
- Interactive tutorials don’t work very well for me - I can easily do them too fast but that’s not enough for me.
I’d like to understand CSS profoundly to be able to create any kind of layout and styling that I want. Of course, practice makes perfect and all those sorts of things. I try to use my CSS skills and build layouts but the more I try to do that the more I actually understand that my knowledge and understanding of CSS lacks structure and organization.
There’re plenty of resources that tell you a lot of things about what relative and absolute positioning are. What I am looking for is a resource where you’re taught how to apply these basics in practice, modern CSS layout techniques, best and worst practices and so on.
