@davebudah how many months it took u to become Full stack Developer?

[@machoman2378]

Thank you for the continuous content Brad! I wouldn’t be the developer I am today without your videos

[@alifhasanshahOfficial]

Yeah I am also like you. Brad is awesome and his teaching skill also .

[@tether23]

This channel so underrated imo

[@ministryofanti-feminism1493]

We were great as the Ultimate Maniacs, brotha!

[@talkohavy]

I think I first saw one of Brad's videos like 6 years ago, and ever since then I saw dozens of them! And it's not like i'm LOOKING for Brad's videos specifically, but like, every topic on which I need help with, it seems that Brad has a video prepared up his sleeve. It's like no matter what I do in life, no matter how much I progress and be a super senior developer, Brad will always have 10 years of knowledge over me!

[@nudecode]

I love the longer videos actually completing something, really feels like you have something to work of. As always great video thanks Brad

[@CharlesDeBarros]

As always, outstanding content! We are very lucky in the development community to have people like you, generous, and willing to share content so as everyone can learn. Thank you.

[@fabianstarke3160]

Every time I am thinking about trying a new tech, a new lib or whatever, generally within the same week I got a notification from Brad's channel !Brad, you are amazing and by far my preferred instructor out there and you made my dream of becoming a dev more accessible already more than 2 years ago. Thank you

[@anonymouseverx]

Special thanks to you, Brad for this extremely valuable and rare content.

[@lunarcode]

This channel has helped me ALOT in learning how to code, literally cannot believe that these videos are free. Keep up the good vids brotha

[@tomiwaajayi8288]

Thanks a lot for this Brad. An amazing summary and description of how to use tailwind. To easily know what each number represents in 'px', just multiply by 4. '4 = 16px', '6 = 24px'

[@rodrigolima7360]

The best tutorial about Tailwind ever! Thank you for providing us with this amazing content!!!

[@bn_ln]

What a find this course has been - it's a goldmine of information. Thanks so much for sharing this content!

[@nicholasrobbins921]

I usually don't comment on videos but really want to say thank you Brad for the tremendous amount of work you're doing in the software community. Following along step-by-step with these projects really helps show what these frameworks can do. It's a big ask, but it would be amazing if we did a project like this in the future but completed additional pages so we had a legit 4-5 page website that would truly be a "Job Ready" project in the sense, like maybe show how we build this one page and then copy certain elements to create a Product page, or a About Us page that was fleshed out even more. Regardless, you're changing people's lives and I thank you immensely for the work you're doing dude!

[@bluesyace9564]

you will never be job ready by following along someone else's project

[@DanieleManca1983]

This project is a coding challenge from Front End Mentor, the design provided on Front End Mentor is only one landing page and Brad is showing the community how to recreate it using Tailwind, so to be honest if anybody wanted to extend the project and create more pages, they're free to, including yourself. We can follow along and copy what Brad is doing on this video, ultimately we learn by doing things completely on our own to consolidate what we follow in lectures.

[@DenzelBraithwaite]

I've been studying / coding for a little over a year now and I'm starting to just look for your videos when I learn a new topic. If you didn't cover it, I look elsewhere but you're my go-to now. I appreciate all the help.

[@bosinious]

I can relate. Even as a developer Brad's content is a great reference resource. It has sped how I learn new front end technology

[@vtreanor]

Loved it, watched every minute. How to get up to speed on Tailwind and static site development in just over an hour, well done.

[@barraganroberto]

I woke up this morning thinking of learning Tailwind, and found this amazing and fresh content! Thanks you very much, Brad!

[@aguynamedandre350]

Don't you just love it when that happens!

[@robertsp2351]

Awesome, cant wait to watch this after work. I've been waiting for something like this. Thanks, Brad!

[@tech_tips0117]

Really, I just decided to start using tailwind, and you immediately made a video, you basically teached me all about web development in less than 2 years thank you very much

[@sunraiii]

Dude you got me onto emmet through this video, and it's absolutely insane. Thank you so much! Currently learning from the video you made about it.

[@canaygun5234]

It's been a while since I last watched one of Brad's videos, and I realized how much I missed it. Thanks for great content!

[@LazerMarsupial]

Everytime I run into a dev tool I want to learn, or a client asks me something about web development, it is Traversy Media to the rescue!! Thanks man for all the good content!

[@ChadCaldwell]

This was fantastic. Learning rather than copying. Very well done. Hope you do more.

[@Fridayy.Blessed]

Traversy media Thanks for providing these free contents I can't thank you enough My elder brother got a job as a senior software engineer in ALASCO company in Germany All thanks to your free contents. He couldn't have done it without your help and ofcourse....for doing the hard work Sure the journey was not an easy one But he did the hard work especially when he didn't feel like doing it... Thank you Brad Traversy ♥️♥️♥️♥️

[@sussannwokorie8654]

Hallo, interesting story, I also live in Germany looking for a position for almost 4mons as a junior Software Engineer, can you please help me to speak to your brother to help me to get a job in his company I saw an opening position

[@samuelsantos8901]

Thank you from Brazil, this is a amazing job, I started yesterday with tailwind I really felt lost before start watching this video, thank you man!

[@Saradomin65]

Just when I wanted to learn Tailwind, Brad drops a new video about it. Definitely will watch this!

[@Nautyy9]

i've been really looking for tailwind project , you're best Brad

[@khaisarmuksid5713]

"I don't want this be something where I just type and you copy and that's it.", I love this part so much. Thanks a lot sir!

[@outis99]

Not sure if you mentioned it since I didn't go through the entire thing but a really cool feature is you can add custom values to pretty much every class, particulary the one I use since tailwind doesn't have classes for vh and vw you can do: class="h-[50vh]" another example would be something like class="bg-[#c301f2]"

[@prapathsuayroop2341]

Thank you Brad, this video helps me a lot to start digging into the TailwindCSS.

[@hebanano]

Thank you so much. I wanted to learn Tailwind for awhile, keep up the good work

[@chelseabing]

Very thoroughly explained and easy to understand. I wanted to learn tailwind and do not regret coming here to learn it.

[@sedrickkouam6874]

i like the way you explain the content of all you crash course. your video help a lot thank you for all the energy and the times you take to explain the content

[@GaBoyInKy]

I learn more from your project based videos than anyone else's subject based tutorials. Thank you.

[@ElegantCoder]

Finished this course it was amazing Brad is a great teacher

[@phraseframe]

Brother, your video is REALLY helping me out, I'm a wannabe frontend developer, and I had just found out about you, certainly going to use your courses to get better at this new (to me) thing. The thing is, I already learned a lot of HTML and CSS, but this helps save on time a bunch. What a time to be alive. Thank you.

[@lukas.webdev]

If you want to watch another video on Tailwind: I just posted a new Tailwind CSS Tutorial (2023) - maybe this is also helpful ... 😉 All the best for your journey!

[@eew_david]

The way Brad is serving is Insaaane! Thank You 🌼✨🙏

[@code.badger]

Are you reading my mind Brad, every time? THANK YOU!

[@RedempleMarcelo]

This is my favourite channel. I especially like it when you explain everything so nicely. I wish you a lot of success with the channel and happy life. ❤️

[@robertfine5464]

Let the Boston accent flow! Your content is legit, don't worry about whether people thing the Boston accent is professional or not.

[@abdulrazaqharoon2733]

@43:00, I made it work without creating a new . It would be difficult to maintain if we create the same content with different styling for different screens size. I made it work with this line Track Company-wide progress

[@bethcarretta5715]

OMG this is awesome-thank you for doing this, Brad. I just finished a Tailwind course on Udemy and I can't wait to practice what I learned with this tutorial. I love Tailwind!

[@AnsgarSteinkamp]

Which Tailwind-Course on Udemy did you take?

[@rene78]

Why doing a course after a course? Build something on your own. Best way to practice.

[@thenightguy6816]

Thanks for making this video. A tailwind recap was clearly needed for me 😅

[@goaheadwithzerospeed4096]

A wonderful tutorial, I have nothing but respect and admiration. thank you brad

AMAZING, was just looking for tailwind courses on youtube, found old brad courses but this made me smile!

[@miguelbezerra5848]

I came here to learn Tailwind, but leave with way more than that! Thank you

[@dragosgheceanu9847]

We're all much better developers thanks you your help! Thank you so much, Brad

[@TheHumanistX]

Dude. You keep essentially apologizing for this 'taking a long time' because you are explaining things... you cranked this out as fast or faster than so many other channels on youtube that don't explain a damn thing. This was one of the most helpful frontend coding videos I've ever watched. You are fantastic at this and I cannot wait to dive into your channel! Thank you SO MUCH for the explanations! What is the point in just coding along with someone with no understanding of WHY??? You know? Also, I'm glad you finally said that the color was 'kinda like orange' even though we called it red. I was worried my eyes were bad lol

[@digigoliath]

Awesome. I need a refresher & a project to work on is always fun. TQVM!!

[@jasonbrooks737]

brad, you're just too good for these web development skills won't believe about your past if you didn't tell us your talent is so precious, dont waste it, keep going strong buddy

[@husseinkizz]

Hello Brad thanks for this, I wanted some fresher on tailwind since I last used it in a while, I hope this is it!

[@QueeeeenZ]

I absolutely love tailwind! thank you!

[@fregina3813]

Thank you! After your class I’ve finally understood how this works.

[@danbuild977]

Travery Media never disappoint. Thank you!

[@hehoist7183]

Thank you very much for such a detailed tutorial, which helped me quickly understand TailwindCSS

[@willisianturi1499]

I created a portfolio web project using a CSS framework called Tailwind in 2022. Thanks for the tutorial.

[@lukas.webdev]

I just posted a video about creating responsive design with Tailwind CSS in 2023 - this should be interesting for you as well!😉

[@VkG64]

That was extremely helpful Brad, thanks a lot !

[@josephemeraldmayangao8287]

To those who are missing some classes. You can type npm run watch to your terminal and it will work!

[@67geetar]

You've no idea how much that just helped me, I'm new to tailwind, started working on this yesterday and came back to it today, just spent an hour trying to get a gap/margin to display between the testimonial section and the one above and obviously nothing happened, ran npm watch and voila margin appeared. Thanks ever so much - wishing you great luck in life!

Great Crash course! Will definitely help my frontend. Love your accent BTW 😎 Don't fight it!

[@huntingcarbon]

I dont know if you did that but there is a nice extension for VS Code that lets you enable IntelliSense for Tailwind, so you can see stuff like the rem unit or what exactly the classes do directly in the IDE
