I felt like my brain was going to explode by the end of Jen Simmons tutorial, but I guess that means I learned something! Writing CSS has been way more fun than I thought it would. It’s been very rewarding! It almost feels like I’m on a gameshow waiting to see if I got the reward every time I refresh my browser to see if the CSS I wrote worked. I know both you and Dils recommended leaving comments, but that just overwhelms me. Having too much on the page leaves me a bit disoriented. I try to make my ‘code’ very straight forward and organized (at least organized to me) so that there are no questions as to what is what. This may change as I get deeper into the process, but we’ll see. Great post and good luck!

Your intro is great and I love the comment on CSS with ‘beauty is pain.’ I totally get what you mean about CSS being the ‘icing’ and it makes that cake pretty. CSS seems tricky, but I love your enthusiasm for experimenting with styles. Yellow Comic Sans on a cat photo sounds like a bold choice and is definitely a statement! Your tips are very helpful, especially about leaving comments. I’m definitely gonna be making so many notes for myself, especially since I’m not very confident in my coding skills. I think we’ll get the hang of CSS with some practice. It’s nice to have the ability to make our projects visually pop, even if it feels overwhelming right now. I am definitely grateful CSS exists as well.
