coding: definitely not for everyone

Coding can be complicated, when you are just starting it's important to take it step by step or you will end up in hell with a page in chaos. It's not that coding can't be learned, it definitely can, but as the saying goes practice makes the master. Hopefully we have the internet, to help us solve our problems. Some good websites are:


lost in coding

One thing I appreciate knowing is that just as in life, if you don't keep your things in order you won't find them, same goes for coding. it gets worse if you have a code that makes sense and you have everything right but for some reason in the preview you get something completely weird, such as out of place, to the left instead then on the right, or even worse it doesn't even come up on the page.

It can be really frustrating, especially when you cant find your error. what you can do in such moments of pain (because it can literally give you pain) is take a step back and try to look more in detail. making little changes as you go to see where you might have gone wrong.  

The importance of margins

Every website and every text box, or picture box they all have margins. you don't notice them but they are always there. the are very important, because if they weren't there you would see the text on a webpage like a mess.









The margins make the text look more organized. also a good friend of margins is the good old padding. as seen in the picture above padding is very important as well.
