This is part 1 of this series, which will span the next few weeks.

I lost track of my studies, but now I'm back.

@@tonyf2a_ i hope i can now do something monetary with CSS bcuz I don't want to miss out on landing a job in css
@@chhavimanichoubey9437 and where does one get work with mainly css?
@@SS-bb1nc many sources but i prefer kevin and firefox mdn
Same to you friends lots of dipression and falls.
Can't wait for the rest of the series! I love these new kinds of videos where we watch you create projects for the first time and can see all of the potential issues that may come up and how you tackle them!
Everyone else focuses on the "how" and not the "why". Thank you for giving an explanation on both. Your really one of the only WebEd channels I can watch and learn from!
please how can I cannot find the link to download the files
I was watching your old videos of doing these kind of series and here you are again with those amazing learning-packed series.
Thank you for actually making CSS easier. Thank you Kevin.
Looks like this was your 500th video! Thank you for putting out such useful and understandable videos on this stuff, it really helps and gets me energized about frontend work!
This is your best series. Please keep them coming and thank you so much for completing them.
I've just started web design and this is all still very ethereal for me. But I appreciate that we're able to hear your thought processes behind your work. That's very inspiring.
Thanks Kelvin. Your conquering responsive layout course has helped my journey literally. I'll definitely be joining in for this series 🙌🙌🙌
I like your thought process on how you choose your classes and custom properties, it was really insightful and helpful. We as devs hardly think about this and it's really important
Thank you so much Mr. Kevin. On a single video I learned, semantics and real world decision making in modern web development. Your channel is really something else.
The explanations and the „why“ is really the key. You are so awesome, thank you!!!
Great video Kevin. I appreciate the detail provided for setting up the root variables as well as the number of tricks/shortcuts you sprinkled throughout (color picker, multi-line select, opening the same doc multiple times, etc.). Thank you!
Thanks so much for making this. Seeing real world projects from start to finish is incredibly valuable content!
The way you explain is so easy to follow. I just went through the whole HTML & CSS playlist yesterday. Learned so much. Thank you.
This was a really really great video. Not only because you are a great developer, but you actually show us your thought process while building this.
Just wanted to say thank you for this video (and your other ones!). Very informative and easy to follow. As someone starting out in front end, these have been a lifesaver
More of this Kevin. Very informative, and big help for learners like me on how the thought process is for creating the front-end.
I was actually starting a FrontEnd Mentor project today! Thanks so much Kevin!
Thank you Kevin. I'm new to web dev and I really need this kind of video to understand how a pro doing stuffs. I want to do it right!
These series were so much needed Kevin !!!! God Bless you !!!
I've been looking for this style of teaching for the longest. Thanks!
And this is called the professional way of getting started with frontend web dev!!! Thanks Kevin for sharing your knowledge
thanks kevin, me and my friends we all group in my home twice a week to watch your videos and practice. really appreciate it!
This is so cool! How do you find people willing to even do that?
@@NathanPhelpsMcPhelpsius I wish I had friends like this
the best sort of advanced css tutorial on the internet by far, can't wait for the next one ...
Great work Kevin. I never stop learning CSS!
please do more of this videos, they relly give us broader idea on how things works.
You're a hero. As someone who's still busy learning programming, making a website is one of the few basics I suck at. This will help a lot. Saving this for later tho, because I gotta go to bed. Thanks in advance tho.
late but must say watching your videos is fun. I get a lot out of them, they'll answer questions I didn't have and plus the goodmooded happy way you present these makes them more fun.
I hope to see many more of these! This video was very helpful.
Nice stuff Kevin. Really looking forward to the rest. I would love to know how you would normally set up your font sizes if the sizing wasn't so wonky like in this one.
Your thought process on global CSS variables is really impressive.
Thank you Kevin, it's really helpful, it's not overkill it's long term thinking.
👏
Thank you Kevin,can't wait for part 2.
Hello from Kyrgyzstan - from Central Asia Country. I love your chanel and your style explaning the css. I am learning from you a lot
Wow. Watching you do it correctly is making me feel bad that I've been doing it wrong all these years.
My only regret is that I didn't find your channel a decade ago.
The designer who made these files for you are so creative! They deserve a raise for sure. It’s reallyyy hard to copy another creators idea and throw it into figma lol
I love this! I've been looking for a tutorial just like this. Thank you!
the only real tutorial that teaches you each step of the way. Gonna give coffee when I'm earning soon.
I learn a lot in the introduction video itself. More such videos will be appreciated.
Absolute steal that this is free. Thank you so much!
OOOHHHHH!!! You're saying "Hello my Frontend friends"!!! I don't know why this video was different from all the others, but I always thought you said "Hello my friend and friends". Frontend friends is way better.
Very nice as usual! I like the way you think. Looking forward to the next video:)
PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE!!!! The "analysing the layout" section is *EVERYTHING* for me. From the depths of my heart, please post more videos about your thought process when you see a design you want to do. It is *INVALUABLE* for me.
Hey Kevin, I really like these responsive website builds!
Super awesome series!!!!! Thanks a lot Kevin
Great information to learn. Thank you, Kevin😊
I'm embarassed to say. I've been a software engineer for 4 years now at a major tech company. But I need to come back to this to remember how to make a basic website. Once you start working at these places they get you doing all sorts of crap that has nothing to do with actually coding websites, even when you're a frontend engineer. You spend years working with frameworks that do it all for you, focusing on optimising state, fixing bugs that have more to do with the glue between frontend and backend than the frontend itself. THen you get pulled into other teams that have nothing to do with what your expertise is. Then you got a close friend or family member asking for help to build a simple website and you're like "Duuuurrrrr wut."
woah I didnt think it would end up being that way, I just started to program and thats kinda shocking lol.
wow , that true , when my brother ask my to help him in his html home work , i stuck and go to w3 school to learn table and and how to do simple stuff . I'am here to learn how to write clean css code not pat shit like before
Just because you're a software designer doesnt mean you can build a website.
I am transitioning careers and began my journey through UX/UI and fell in love with Front-End instead (it probably has to do with my previous career). This is VERY interesting! I have watch many UI vids and have wondered how it flows to the next level. I have seen rants from UI community members rant about how web devs need to (insert something here). It really goes both ways and I'm hoping that with some background knowledge I can be helpful.
Thank you Kevin for the amazing videos. i love those series.
This is so amazing! Please more!!!
Seeing you coding is amazing, so much to absorb
Thank you for sharing! This is really helpful for us !
Man, I really need this. Thanks a lot!!!
This is super awesome & helpful man, thanks a zillion for your efforts. God bless you.
Hey! Your intro is much more clear now! Nice
this is awesome, thank you so much Kevin.
I hope you will release more video about Building website as this video. This is useful for newbie FE. Thank you Kevin
Thanks Kevin, another great tutorial video! Great work as always. It's hard for me to imagine you scratching your head, yet I seem to scratch mine continuously.
Yes that's I needed , thank you sir for this playlist
Backend developer, have always been frustrated and confused by CSS: your videos are actually making me excited about front end :D
This is what I was waiting! Let's go!
I've always thought I spend way too much time on forward thinking..... until i watched this video and am at peace with it.
Great work Kevin. Thanks.
Looking forward to watching this one 👍
THIS IS WHAT I'VE BEEN WAITING FOR!!!
I am a beginner and really liked this detailed specifications of properties but yeah I felt a little overwhelmed as well but overall it's good :) I think going through the basics again would be a better choice for me though 😄
Use mdn
There is always something to learn here thank you 🙏
Kevin you should be voted world president of css teaching. I hope to send a contribution to you some day . Your commitment to helping people is invaluable.!
That's ❤️ great i was waiting for this video
Thanks kevin i was really need it this time when i have to start a project
You produce really good content; I am just starting with code and these tutorials are really helpful, greetings from Venezuela
thank you for providing this premium content Kevin, God bless you
As always, amazing!
I learnt a lot from this video. Thanks.
Man i love your content, and when its free 😍😍😍♥️♥️♥️♥️
Thank you Kevin. Needed this dude. :)
A day fullfilled with Good Practices and tips is a wonderful day.
By far the best tutorial i found to tNice tutorials in a short ti
Hi Kevin, I've just checked out your courses they are amazing! Thanks a lot for free resources. 🙏🌷
Thank you so much this is know a real course to learn how to make a decision which best layouts for each device
Thank you Kevin great tutorial.
Awesome series! Thanks
Installing "Color Highlight" VS Code extension is a great way to instantaneously get more information about a color, without having to look it up. The color is literally shown in your editor as a shade.
Nice video. I learned a lot by viewing it!
not gonna lie, I watch Kevin's videos at night to relax while learning CSS! The way he teaches is so damn good, I always know I will understand the subject! And the way the teaches is so calm and welcoming I always feel like someone will come and serve me some coffee with cookies while I watch it! 😅
Any other youtuber you would suggest for frontend?
@@goggins8471 I don't watch many, but the channel Web Dev Simplified is also good, but he goes way fast and I confess sometimes I get lost on it
@@goggins8471 The Net Ninja is also great teacher. He teaches detailed and slowly so you can understand function of what he teaches. He also has amazing JS tutorials.
@@ardet1527 thanks
@@ardet1527 thanks 🙏
Thanks for walking us through the css reset. Very informative!
I'm not understanding the ' :root ' stuff though...I've never seen that.
Yes thanks! I NEEDED this.
Thanks a lot for this type of series.
Please create this type of series on SCSS.
Please! Please!
Love your work and your haircut 👌
Let's gooooo that's what I'm thinking about😍😍😍
great, waiting for next part👌
Swiper is my go to carousel. I highly recommend it ! It is very customisable.
It would be so cool if you could show how you would make a real caroussel. I tried one time and it was not that good. The hardest part was to make the caroussel seem endless, to show the first element after the last element when you click on the next button again.Seeing your approach on an automated caroussel would be very interesting as well :)
Whenever I see CSS problem to solve , I see your face automatically generated to get resources from your videos, big thanks for good work.
I’m a newbie and this would help me a lot in learning css.
have literally just realised you say hello my front end friends, always thought you were saying friend and friends LOLZ!! Absolutely love the videos thank you so much.
We must protect this human at all costs.
This was part of my frontend 1 final exam, the academy where I'm studying gave us this design for us to code. Wish you had uploaded this series a couple of months ago 🤣
Great video!
Dear, Kevin we needed this video last week🥺
