Css Responsiveness
Am having issues with pure css responsiveness. But I can use it for all things.
Should I leave it and focus on tailwind responsiveness because I am good there too

tailwind is a css library
and as all libraries, it hides a lot of details for simplicity
tailwind's responsiveness is pretty close to bootstrap, but doing it pure css is different
it is a decent way to get started, but the amount of detail it hides is pretty substantial
So I have to learn it well before moving to framework
that is what i recommend, yes
but tailwind isn't a framework
If you're having issues ith reponsive CSS Kevin has the perfect free course for you:

And I would highly recommend not learning Tailwind until you understand CSS. You won't know what "problems" Tailwind is "solving" if you odn't know how CSS works.
And I use quotes because really the "problem" that Tailwind "solves" is that people don't want to learn CSS. It's "solving" laziness 🤷
Thanks you all for your concern
Am very happy for joining this community
you're welcome
So when am done with css because I will finish it next week
Should I enter css framework or JavaScript
Do you want to know a secret? You’re never done with CSS.
Jesus :raisedbrow:
So I have to continue learning it
Web tech is always changing and growing. We’re getting new functionality every year
The worst part is that sass is still waiting for me
My work yesterday 🥺
sass is just css, but with extra tools
Yes
According to what I studied yesterday
Tech is big oooo
you should focus on pure css for now
Thank you sir
Just one more question ❓
Should l learn JavaScript first before css framework
If you're gonna do interactive frontend development javascript is absolutely needed.
It's not directly related to css framework/tools but you should work on getting your html css and javascript fundamentals before jumping into tools that abstract things away like react, tailwind, bootstrap etc
Just learn javascript alongside css. Make sites, style them with css and sprinkle some interactivity with js
you can learn html, css and javascript in layers
first html, then add css and then add js
but as we said here: start with those
Thank you all for giving me the final path to follow.

Here’s the secret Big Tech and techbros can’t tell you: tech is small. It’s the frameworks, libraries, and toolchains that are big.
If you learn the base, underlying language you can ignore most frameworks and libraries. And you’ll know when you should reach for one!
Libraries, frameworks, and toolchains are created to solve specific problems. But if you don’t know what those problems are, how can you make an informed decision on if it’s a problem for you?
For example, if you know how the CSS cascade works you wont have the, “I think I’m too smart for CSS” problem that Tailwind “solves”.
According to what am seeing now
Css seems the best due to is easy to read and easy to customize but I was told that big company don't use pure css but there uses framework
Just the issues am having for now is that responsive
As am learning JavaScript I will be touching most of the css I didn't know
Big companies use frameworks because they needed them 20 years ago when their website was first created. And instead of re-writing it all using modern CSS they kept using the framework
Honestly, “big companies do it” is probably the best reason not to do something. You’re not Nike. You don’t have Nike-scale issues or a Nike-scale dev team
Stop trying to be like Nike
Am learning like this boss from your words
If I may as, you mean I should focus on pure css, and JavaScript
If is so I will do everything possible to stick to it
Just that am learning all this alone

You’re not learning alone, you’re here with us!
We gotchu, bro
exactly: and you will never be nike. and, if the rainbow unicorn farts on your direction and shows the pot of gold and you grow to nike's size, then worry about those things
Thank you all for the wisdom and knowledge you people have given me
Tonight I go with the course you gave me and I know it will surely solve my problem
Today is one of my happiest days ever
you're welcome
Another feature I saw is clamp()
Is it recommended
depends on what you're trying to do with it
It’s a tool. If it’s useful then you use it
and like any tools, there are things it is good at and things it is not good/usable for
Clamp is used to make sure some mathematical formula stays within a specific lower and upper bounds.
Good for things like font size as you don’t want the font to be too small or too big. Bad for things like width or border radius. Min or max would be better for width and straight up pixel for border radius.
Now I understand
