Web Development: Update of My Learning


Ramadan Mubarak! Hope you're spending the blessed month the way you should! So far, I have been learning the front-end part which is- building the structure of the website using HTML and making it look good using CSS. And I have been enjoying the learning a lot. So, this is how it's going- I started by learning the basics of HTML and CSS. I learned the basics from YouTube and from one channel. Based on a few more experiences, I can recommend you to learn the 'basics' from one resource for whatever you are learning. That keeps the process from turning overwhelming. But of course, basics is not all. To upgrade your level, you need to keep learning more out of basics. This is when things start to get overwhelming and we often end up giving up. Here's what my programming journey taught me last year: you can never learn ALL of it and you shouldn't even try to do so. If you want to learn everything before starting to create something, chances are that you will never even get to begin with your project. The reason is simple- there's no end of learning. So there's no way to start something if you wish to finish something never-ending before that. Then what's the way to learn new topics? Well, making a project with the knowledge of the basics you've learnt. This is the most given advice from every programmer you'll find on YouTube. It's the stumble-learn-get up-repeat process and with each repetition, the number of topics you've learned goes up. Following the same way with learning web development is helping too. Also, watching tutorials or projects made by others helps to get new idea. While designing a web page, I get stuck at places for not knowing how to do the certain thing. I look it up on YouTube or google it and thus learn a new topic. Learning in this way is effective because it's interesting and I don't have to be stuck up learning something I probably won't use any time soon. I need to learn what I want to learn and I want to learn what I need to learn. Here's my CodePen account where you can see some of my works. (Browsing with PC is recommended.)

That's all for today. Stay tuned for the next post. Bye!

How the Nuclear Tests Destroyed the Lives of Innocent Islanders

  Bikini Atoll The other day I was reading the story 'othoi shagor' of 'Tin goyenda' again after almost 8 years and learned about an interesting historical reference which I had completely ignored the first time I read it. Today I'm sharing that with you. After World War 2, during the cold war between the United States and Russia, the U.S.A. conducted some consecutive nuclear tests on different islands and atolls in the Marshall islands (the testing sites were given the name– Pacific Proving Grounds). These tests continued  for 12 years starting from 1946, to show the world how much power they had. According to the document, 105 nuclear tests were conducted in total. The first explosion took place at Bikini Atoll on 1July, 1946. (Atolls are ring-shaped coral islands.) Marshall Islands is situated in the South Sea of Pacific Ocean and it consists of many small islands and atolls. The atolls consist of smaller islands. In the mainland of the Bikini atoll, lived 167 ...

An Excerpt from My Karate Journey!

One of the new things that has been added to my life this year is Karate. I had always been interested in learning some kind of martial art, so finally starting to learn karate was like a dream-come-true to me. Recently I've been promoted to yellow belt from white (belt ranking starts from white and gradually climbes up to yellow, orange, green etc.). Today I'd like to share with you some thoughts regarding my karate journey. First, let me tell you about our karate dojo (where karate is taught). Honestly, I've never been to a place full of so much positive energy before. No negativity, only hard work and learning. I think it's wonderful that we willingly keep coming to the place which keeps giving us tough time every week. I doubt even 1% of this willingness is present when it comes to going to school. Another different thing about this place is– here age doesn't make you junior or senior, your skill does. Often we learn from someone who is much younger than us and ...

Last Page of This Journal

I was reading the first blog of this site while smiling like a parent smiles at his/her excited child. How excited I was about this 'kingdom' of mine that I was building. This actually was my happy place, a place I could express myself although I think I could do better in doing so.  It's been almost 4 years since I first wrote here and now that I look back, I feel like a totally new person. I'm glad I'm no longer as perfectionist and fearful of embarrassment as before, but I miss the desire I used to have to thrive for the better. Well, I'm still cluess about how my attitude towards life should be.  I didn't have a plan to continue writing in this blogsite anymore, so I thought I'd better say final goodbye to this so called "Journal of My Journey" at the final hours of 2024. People are going berserk outside with their fireworks for no reason. What I'm writing is not entirely registering in my head. I do intend to continue writing on anothe...
