I will watch you progress as I am learning too but I think I well far from where you are my fellow dev. I am actually doing a 12 hour bootcamp with CSS HTML and JavaScript. It literally took me all day just to go through 1 hour of the video lol but what I thought I saved I lost it all lol. Had to start all over again. What the good thing was I speed through it and I could read the code and see how div's class's id's work with css styleSheet , # and under stand psuedocode with div's better so I have a better picture how to layout my work and also look at other code and see the basics of their formate and be able to change code online with inspect element but the changes dont last but the possibilities are their to see and how cool flexbox. I thought I didn't learn much but that 1 hour was well worth doing again and also the next hour I went through fast too. My goal is to build a blockchain gaming ecosystem with a social media and ecommerse. Well thank you for your 100 Days of Leaning and I will be watching with interest :).

Let's Code

use version control like git so you don't lose anything.

if you want something simple that you will save your progress, use something like codepen or codesandbox.io

I used codeSandBox, it didn't save the stuff I thought if automatically saved all my work but it didnt. All good, I actually liked doing the course again because I picked it faster and I now know how important div's - classes and id's are with psuedoCode. Thanks for your reply :)

Thank you for sharing! That course you found sounds like an awesome start! I also recommend freecodecamp.com for hands-on exercises and lessons as well. The hours go by fast but they add up over time, you've got this.

Also, I second what Let's Code said about using something like codepen.io/ to save your work in if you'd like to revisit it later. It's great for saving code samples or even building out larger projects.
