I had a little trouble with the layout in my hero section in #webflow because I was using Flexbox on the wrong container. I added a new div block for my left and right div blocks that allowed me to use Flexbox correctly and, after a few nights of struggles. It is looking good! #learninginpublic

This evening's lesson is about float, columns and display.. Let's see what we have in store. All i know at the moment is I added my image and it is sitting up top and it needs to move. a.cl.ly/JruQXxxp #learninginpublic #webflow

Hello #webflow experts.. On my course video, the teach opens up the HTML and CSS to look at it by clicking the </> option at the top. But mine doesn't show that. Could someone direct me to where I can find it now? Thaaanks :)

Classes.. I duplicated a button in #Webflow and all my changes were affecting the button I copied. UGH Frustrating. Why? They share the same class. So the styling I was setting to that class was being added to both buttons. I assigned a new class to my ghost button. #learninginpublic #nocode

Hey all! Not been able to study for a few days. Hectic or fell asleep haha. But, gonna have a go tonight. #webflow #learninginpublic

Not looking too dissimilar now. Off to a better start but still only managing around an hour. This #twinmum is just too sleepy to concentrate for a long time. Proud to say that I was able to round the button and add padding without the step-by-step guide :) #learninginpublic #buildinginpublic

Pausing the video of my lesson and giving it a go first, then checking my answers is really helping learn my way around #webflow settings. #learninginpublic #buildinginpublic

Today I learned that the font weight in Figma are not numerical as in CSS on #webflow so I had to do little Googling to find out what numbers each font weight is. #learninginpublic Also, I learned how to add more fonts as on #figma there are many more to choose form in the list.

It has been a few rough nights with poorly #twins so studying has been very difficult. I have had a quick go at studying #webflow tonight. But I am going to hit the hay early to try and get a few hours before one of the poorly little people want mummy. Night all.

A very simple start to building in #webflow this evening as I am exhausted. I added my first section, added a container for my H1, paragraph and buttons Then, I played around with padding and margins got a feel for simple responsiveness. Looking very simple. #learninginpublic #buildinginpublic

Just had my first walkthrough of the #webflow control panel. Feeling a little overwhelmed I must say 😅

My task was to create my first home page. It was a walk-through with an example site to inspire me. I chose my own colour palette and images. I built it with assistance, but now I will pass from #Figma to make it in #webflow www.figma.com/design/sA7r6... #learninginpublic #buildinpublic

Babies are in bed. Full of cold, yey! But studying all the same even if I have no control over my nostrils 😅

I shared this previously before it was ready. Hehe starting again. If anyone is interested in #product #engineering #teams #agile #tech #productengineering and all that jazz this is definitely for you 😍 Sign up to my Husband’s news letter 💯

Still working on my design project in Figma, to then go on to create in Webflow, but I am so tired... sleepy time. Na nite all.

ooo next steps in my course sound scary. I am going to design a home page in Figma, to then move on to build my first design in #webflow 😅

So far, so good. (I had to use a similar font as the Figma example on the left has a paid font) #learninginpublic #buildinginpublic

This evening’s task is to recreate the home of Figma in #figma using what I have learnt so far. Fun fun fun #learninginpublic

Okay, babies are in bed. Let’s study!

Good morning, todays motivation = 0 So lets motivate each other 🤝🏻 #buildinginpublic

Today's task was to create a mood board to get some inspiration for a ride-sharing app design. Here is the mood board I created. #nocode #design #learninginpublic #buildinginpublice #figma www.figma.com/design/5yXly...

Hello Hello! Sorry, I have had a few days off studying to help my husband perfect his speech on #productengineering But back this morning... a day off work with coffee, cake and a laptop.. Let's go. #learninginpublic #design #nocode #figma

To finish the night off on a positive. I am quite proud of how this one turned out. My mini project on creating tension. I was given plain text and the image to use. It was fun seeing how much tension can be created as you tweak. www.figma.com/design/rGd6W... #learninginpublic #buildinginpublic

Ouch! When I submit my tasks, I can review and comment on 3 other students' work... Wow, 3 amazing submissions and I cannot resubmit my ugly one :( #learninginpublic

The first lesson and task today - Overlapping. Considering other things I have learned so far. It looks pretty amateurish, I think. Eeek. It was a bit difficult to do this with limited skills in design and Figma. www.figma.com/design/h0XCp... #learninginpublic #buildinginpublic #nocode #figma
