Replies for: Awesome list! I definitely agree that doing things in CSS is a great way to go. I tend to jump right into JS, but yes - there is so much you can ...

I never wrote and I was always attracted to, especially sharing to beginners who need some guidance. How does that work here?

There's a button in the top right of your screen called "Write a Post" - click that and you'll get an editor.

Here are some tips:

Give it a good, descriptive title
If you can find a good image that represents your post, you can put it as the post image
Add some tags! find the tags that represent what you're trying to say (sounds like at least #beginners would fit)
write your post :)
The editor takes Markdown, so you can format your text. Google for "markdown cheatsheet" if you need help with that.

Then click publish!

The first post is the hardest :) but after you get the feel for it, it becomes easier.

and if you do post it, you can share it here and I'll definitely check it out! Good luck :)

Ok, I wrote up all those steps as its own post :) Here it is - how to write your first post on DEV!

Hope that helps :)
