100 days of code

<day 9>
Today is only the third day of the camp and we already have a homework assignment due tomorrow.  Our first homework is to create our own portfolio site using HTML/CSS.  We have to recreate a basic design given to us, entirely from scratch.  

I decided to create a running list of things that I don’t understand yet and to practice using these in my spare time.  As of right now, I still don’t have a clear understand of:


  1. Floats and clears
  2. Box-sizing
  3. Descendant/child/relative/general attribute selectors
  4. Relative, fixed and absolute positioning
  5. Z-Index
  6. Flexbox

​I have to understand these concepts before I could create my site and it may take a few days to sink in.  Fortunately, the instructor understood that this was quite a fast turn around for a first homework and he urged us to turn in what we have, even if we’re not happy with it.  My portfolio didn’t quite look exactly like the example we were supposed to re-create, but I think it’s a decent start.

My plan is to just re-work the past assignments and try to grasp the new concepts by reading about them in various sources.  I know it’ll just be a matter of time until all of this, clicks.  For now, it’s a decent starting point and I’m excited to see my progress throughout this camp.
