Learn Modern CSS, Create Style Stage Theme
Learning Plan Idea
Learn each Modern CSS Solutions for Old CSS Problem lesson. Then use the technique (if relevant) on creating a Style Stage theme for submission.
Objectives
- applying what I learn by layers into something tangible
- contribute to OSS when I complete the series
Resources
- Style Stage: Guidelines
- A Hacktoberfest Project For All Web Developers: Style Stage
- stylestage-sass Repo
Progress
Prep Work
- Create repo using sass template
- Set up repo to deploy to gh-pages
- Look into github actions
- Deep dive starter SASS code
- Remove all existing styles to begin from scratch
Considerations
- design by tinkering approach
- what I envisioned may be fuzzy; only when I experiment with the code then the design comes clear
- learning to be ok with leaving helper CSS -> part of learning/making in public process
- begin with mobile-first
- a blank page often means too many possibilities; it wreaks havoc on my focus and feeds indecisiveness
- use constraints to play with potentials and to layer on designs
- let tablet and desktop ideas chill in the background until they become clear
