as a web dev I actually get irrationally angry when people recommend w3schools as learning material
#personal#web development#web design#it's absolutely an elitist view but I am not in favor of resources that provide you bad or outdated information#especially when it comes to technology that is constantly updating and evolving and those outdated methods#end up contributing to learning bad practices or habits or worse yet contribute to bad accessibility and/or developer experience#for both you and the people who read your code#use MDN instead. it's the web dev's encyclopedia and dictionary all in one#it's written and maintained by people who have been doing this shit for decades and have a lot of experience parsing the HTML CSS and JS#specifications into more digestible terms#'but nix what about people who are literal beginners and don't care to learn all the jargon that comes with this skill!'#idk man how many artists would recommend a 'how to draw manga' book over learning something more substantial???#no one's stopping you but I am gonna question why you're using a bunch of divs instead of semantic elements which are better for#accessibility in browsers and screen readers#do what you want at the end of the day but I expect you to stop listening to your family member on whatever topic they think they're an#expert on and graduate to an actual encyclopedia at some point
