CSS & JavaScript Course Reorganization, Position Offsets
December 24th - December 30th 2023
Let's take a look at what changed in BigBinary Academy this week.
Position Offsets
Position offsets were in different lessons which would result in learning fatigue. Studying top offset, then practice, left, then practice, bottom and then right, would cause frustration. So we combined them in one lesson. Since there is just one concept, it makes sense to have all offsets in one lesson. Checkout Offset with Position Relative.
CSS Reorganization
We got feedback that the CSS course was not exciting enough. So, we wanted to get some visual and interesting concepts higher up in the course. We have moved Flexbox, Position, Display chapters higher up. Checkout CSS Basic Course.
JavaScript Reorganization
We are trying to make it as fast as possible for the folks to get to learn React.js.
One should learn only enough JavaScript/CSS/HTML so that the person can quickly move to React and start building. Towards that end, we moved some of the concepts between Advanced JavaScript and Intermediate JavaScript courses.
For example, we moved chapters like Asynchronous Code or Optional chaining to Intermediate. We thought these materials should be covered before they start React and moved String methods or Math method to advanced as they can learn that once they start with React.
- Intermediate JavaScript Course
Intermediate projects
We embedded four intermediate projects to their respective courses in BigBinary Academy:
