I discovered a fantastic GitHub repository called: Projects

This repository contains about 125 project ideas from beginner to intermediate level that anyone can solve in any programming language.

"I want to learn how to code, but have no idea where to begin."

I've been getting this question pretty frequently lately, and thought it was a good time to put together a thread to cover all the basics.

And here it is!

Instead of just throwing a few links at you, I first want to cover something much more fundamental: The *reason* you want to learn to code.

I've had to train a good number of developers in my time. The ones that succeeded had rock-solid, persistent motivations. Is that you?

Some good motivations for learning how to code:

* Enabling a career change
* Insatiable curiosity, eagerness to learn
* Frustration with inefficiency + desire to improve things
* Larger goals in mind, coding being a stepping stone

Some bad motivations for learning how to code:

* It seems popular
* Your friends/family have ideas for apps
* You want to make lots of money by sitting in front of a computer
* You bought an expensive MacBook and are struggling to justify the expense

For those, trade forex.

Motivation matters, because of the one thing that's universally true about coding: It's hard.

Depending on what you do, you may have to learn several languages at once. Tools constantly update. New approaches land in the market on an annual basis. You're constantly upskilling.

If you're learning or planning to learn Web Development in 2021 then this thread is for you

🧵👇🏻

WHERE TO START? Front-end or Backend?

- Well this may be a debatable question but I would suggest you to start with front-end development

- It depends entirely on the individual but in my opinion, starting with front-end development has its advantages.

{ 2 / 16 }

WHY TO START WITH FRONT-END DEVELOPMENT?

- More visual content gives you an aesthetic vibe

- You can share your creations

- Easier to get feedback as you can show your webpages to any non technical person as well

{ 3 / 16 }

FUNDAMENTALS ARE IMPORTANT

- Don't rush! Spend some time on HTML, CSS and JavaScript. You can do pretty amazing things using these three languages

{ 4 / 16 }

- Make sure to learn and build some web pages using HTML and CSS before jumping onto JavaScript

- JavaScript is the backbone of web development, Don't rush to start with React/Angular/vue or any other front-end framework or library

A complete beginner's guide to CSS Grid layout 👇🏻

Thread🧵

Grid is used for making complex web design layouts more easily as it's not so hard to master

Using Flex you can make only 1D layout but Grid gives you full power of creating 2D layout

Let's start

{ 2 / 21 }

First things first, start with giving the display property "grid" to the container element or parent element

{ 3 / 21 }

Nothing will change after adding display: flex; in the parent container becuase we need to define the width of columns. In order to set that columns width we have gird-template-columns property

{ 4 / 21 }

Let's start with defining the width of our columns.

For example, let's say I need two columns of width 60% and 40% respectively

grid-template-columns: 60% 40%;
