I’m learning CSS and this morning I managed to get a little CSS snippet working to make headers look like this and I AM DELIGHTED.


Like, more delighted than I should be because essentially I just copied a snippet somebody else wrote and messed around till it looked like I wanted but still. DELIGHTED.

Don’t shortchange your delight. Everybody learns and builds from other peoples code. Enjoy what you’ve made and that you now know something you didn’t yesterday.

That’s the best part of CSS (and HTML) - how anyone can remix and learn.

@gdp Breaking part still scares me a bit but the fixing part (when it works) is such a delight.

Looks good. Really like the subtle gradient. Also, I agree with @gregmoore comment about learning and building atop of others work. That’s certainly how I’ve learnt new things.

@gdp Breaking things and then figuring out how to fix them is how I have learned most of what I know.
