Creating Tumblr themes: Websites or tools you might not have heard of - Part 2
I made this list a good while back, and I thought I'd share some more! But this is more like courses that I did, websites that helped me improve my programming skills, fun stuff that helped me improve my skills.
moderncss.dev - Modern CSS Solutions for Old CSS Problems by Stephanie Eckles, is brilliant specifically for Tumblr, I think. There's a lot of 'old' solutions floating around tumblr basecodes, code snippets etc, and each topic is easier to digest and follow along.
smolcss.dev - Stephanie also made this, kinda a companion piece to moderncss.
Ben Myers's posts about accessibility - Ben is a God and all these posts are also digestible. I would start out with the one on aria labels.
12daysofweb.dev - there are 3 years worth of 12 mini courses and snippets.
Nesting, Layers, and Container Queries - Yoav Ganbar wrote this article explaining stuff neatly. Media queries are so last year, the control you can get with container queries is exciting. I use a mix og both to get the responsiveness just right for my Tumblr themes. Plain CSS nesting is also kinda revolutionary in how fast and concise Tumblr select meta blocks can be transformed.
Javascript30 - wesbos' free JS course is simply great and its sectioned and there are videos, notes and practical stuff.
wesbos.com - I would basically recommend checking out his other courses and articles as well. there are free ones on flexbox and css grid as well.
HTML cheat sheet - just a nice reminder from time to time when you start out.
A Friendly Introduction to SVG - everything Josh writes is fun and it's where I also learned more about accessible dark mode. Also his mastering of cool effects in his website? endless, I just love clicking around tbh. Josh's own about page is super cool! I adore him and he has taught me sooo much.
My own resourcs and credits - Here's a page with a brief overciew of my used resources and my own stuff as well.
