20 Web Development Questions Answered in 10 Minutes - Front-end Edition

And question Number 10 is: Can I mix CSS GRID with Flexbox [Music] What is going on everybody my name is Raddy and you’re watching my channel RaddyTheBrand. Today I decided to switch it up a little bit and try something different. I’m going to answer 20 development questions in under 10 minutes [Music] minutes [Music] Let’s get going with the first question. The first question is Is jQuery still relevant in late 2020? I would say absolutely! jQuery is still used on websites and as a Web Developer you should at least know your way around it. Saying this, I very rarely use jQuery now unless i’m feeling lazy and i’m using WordPress, but i would say avoid using it if you can.

We have 01:03 - question number two which is what JavaScript framework slash library should i learn. My suggestion would be to go with something like React or Angular and one i try both. Vue.js is also a great option but I am not so sure about the others like Svelte. The supporting community are not there yet, but i can imagine that it would grow as well looks great! Should I use Bootstrap for prediction? No. If you’re a front-end web developer or aspiring to be one, you should be able to build custom layouts unless you’re on a tight deadline.

01:41 - I get that the bootstrap team has done an amazing job on accessibility and usability, but you should also consider the size and the design options. Bootstrap in my opinion is a little bit overused and it doesn’t look great. We have question number four and that is: Will you continue to upload videos in 2021? and the answer to this is only if you smash the like button and subscribe to my channel! [ Arnold Joke - do it do it come on do it now ] And now we have question number five which is: Is html a programming language [Gordon Ramsey Meme | Gordon Ramsey Meme Gordon Ramsey Meme ] We have question seven: What makes a good front-end web developer? A good front-end web developer supports other developers by smashing the like button and subscribing! [joke] as long as you have great personality like me [joke] you’re an open-minded person you like learning new things and you’re good at problem solving you’re pretty much there and of course you need to know HTML and CSS and maybe JavaScript it will definitely help. It’s good to know JavaScript but being great at HTML and CSS alone it’s a great start! [Music] and we have question number nine which is the question of the day: Does size matter? [Music] okay who asked that question [joke] let me rephrase this: Does the size of your website affect his performance? Yes, of course not only that you could affect the User Experience, SEO and many other things. Always try to optimize your website as much as you can, not everybody has a fast internet connection and nobody has the patience to wait for your golden website to load unless it’s actually really golden.

Question number 10 is can I 03:54 - mix CSS Grid with flexbox? Yes, absolutely! they work well together and that’s how I built most of my website - actually all of my projects and i mainly use grid for the layout and from time to time i use flexbox just to position things on the layout so yeah mainly grid and then a little bit of flexbox give us some exciting javascript libraries is question number eleven and that would be 3js gsap and scroll magic question number 12 list three cool css libraries i don’t know if ionic is considered as a css library because it’s so much more but i want to say ionic animate css which i don’t use anymore and i also want to say hover.css and the next question is best learning resources for front-end web developers i would definitely suggest using youtube and free code camp as they’re my favorite three resources 14. how do we avoid burnout taking regular breaks exercise don’t feel guilty by taking a few days off and from time to time try to mix it up like do some fun projects for yourself and remember why you started one development in the first place most likely because it was interesting and fun we have question number 15 which is how do you go about learning new technologies i would say stop thinking and overanalyzing just start just start somewhere what are your tips for someone that just started learning web development i will give you two quick ones never ask for help unless you’re a tight deadline and your life depends on it figuring out stuff on your own is much better for learning and it’s actually more satisfying i would say you just end up learning so much more and the second one will be always try to practice what you’ve learned as people say practice makes perfect and now we have question number 17. which is should i use scss or css variables use css variables as they are in your root of your document and you can manipulate them whenever you like scss variables well scss is a preprocessor and one the once the scss variables are compiled they can be changed from the document so yeah use css variables question 18 is is it still acceptable to make the same vertical centering css jokes no god no god please no no question 19 should flow still be used for creating layouts if you’re still using floats you should probably stop now i think that floats introduced a lot more problems than anything and to be honest i’m not even sure why i’m discussing this just don’t use floats you shouldn’t be using floats and the last question of the day which is should i use link in my html to import a font from google or adobe or should i use the at import in my css it’s much better to import your font in your html instead of doing the add import in your css the fonts are loaded from a cdn from google cdn or adobe cdn and that’s fairly fast there is a big explanation about this but link is definitely much better that’s pretty much everything for today i hope that you enjoyed the video if you did consider subscribing to my channel sharing the video and liking it and if you have an interesting question for the next video you can message me on social media or direct email me thank you very much for watching as always my name is radi and you’re watching my channel riding the brand i will see you in the next video [Music] you .
