I remember taking your crash course on html, 8 months ago and now I’m starting my first front end dev job next week. Thanks for all you do Brad!

[@GuitarHope]

If you don't mind, what have you learnt in these 8 months in order to be be able to do the job?

[@Muffi606]

Can you share a little bit more about your journey, just starting front end development

[@robrice4076]

@@GuitarHope Sorry for the late response. But the technologies that ive learned are HTML, CSS/SASS, Vanilla JavaScript, Bootstrap, and learned my way around github and the terminal. I made learning an everyday thing and listened to what the big tech youtubers said about finding a job , replicated a lot of sights from frontendmentor, took as much classes from scrimba. And i think most important, when i talked to companies that wanted to hire me i just sounded excited and passionate to talk to them and told them im ready to give it my all.

[@robrice4076]

@@Muffi606 So i had no professional tech experience, i transitioned from a barber to a front end dev. I woke up early in the mornings before work / after laying my child down at night and followed tutorials, built my own ideas, or just replicated sites. Listen to podcast/youtube videos on the way to work/at lunch, i made development my life. For real give it time, consistency is key, trust the process. I've learned things that i thought i could never learn. And have trust in your self and believe everything brad says.

@@robrice4076 this is awesome

[@favouritecomics2177]

Brad is the reason why I have not given up on web development.. Thank you so much sir

[@jesseemana9598]

been seriously waiting on this, just diving into CSS and I loved how simplified your Flexbox crash course was and was looking to get into Grid next but other videos just weren't doing it for me until I found this, awesome

[@stevenwilson5556]

5:54 the hack to add 9 numbered items in VS code felt like a superpower. Thanks for this video. I am already lovin' it.

[@fablyinspirations7783]

Thank you Brad. Amazing tutorial as always. I personally do not take your generous sharing of knowledge for granted because I can imagine how much work goes into creating great tutorials like these.

[@noahdiez9400]

The way you teach and show alternative ways of doing stuff than just one example are the type of tutorials that give people better perspectives. Very well done

[@kratty]

This is by far my favorite grid tutorial. Not only did you show the basics and syntax, but we got example of how to incorporate it into a somewhat real scinero. It was a great touch combining the use of grid and flex box to help tie both uses together. Bravo.

[@nomagix]

Hey Brad, I just wanna thank you so much for your hard work. Your channel is invaluable! You're awesome.💕

[@mobeenrajpoot5315]

Now you are one of my favourite teachers. I really like the project base tutorials especially when you build things from scratch and give us a chance to learn some fundamental things from it.

[@TheSharkbeast]

Just in time i actually skipped Grid while learning Css and moved to Js after a few projects now i was reconsidering Grid literally few hours ago !! Thanks alot your React front to back is Golden

[@jakeochukoidamatie723]

Thanks Brad for making this video, I have been running away from grid and using only Flexbox, but you just changed my mind, CSS grid is so powerful and easy. THANKS !!!

[@discoRyne]

Grid and Flexbox is such a fun and powerful combo once mastered. The new (first time I'm seeing it) intro animation also looks great with the code editor in the background, good job there!

[@bekhzodjamolov3682]

This guy knows how to teach things properly and shows on actual examples what he taught. Thank you for the great video!

[@ezeobisochima9944]

I finished grid system with your modern HTML and CSS course from udemy and also with your crash course on KZbin and all of them really make sense. But I feel that this one is also a must watch crash course 😂. Any video from Brad for me it is a must watch 😁

[@WW-zy9un]

From somehow who is old-school with the old way of tables & columnspan's , your videos help a lot, & maybe I won't throw all the prior knowledge away. I want to get back into it & this is sooooo much simpler. A new learning curve. Glad I ran across you.

[@Amar11115]

every time i feel low and want to quit coding, I watch your videos. you teach concepts easily and most of the time you make me feel that I can learn to code, I just need to keep going. thanks man, thanks a bunch!😊

[@uniquelaura8277]

Thank you so much for this Brad! I found you last year came back looking for ya. I'm self learning through Codecademy and I'm so glad I came to watch both your flexbox and grid tutorials. They're amazing! You're a great teacher and a great inspiration. You give me so much hope! Will definitely come back to do projects with you and to keep learning from you. Stay blessed!

[@henrymacartney381]

Thank you, sir for another excellent tutorial. I am a pensioner who worked in the medical device industry, where we worked with embedded SW systems. Huge difference but fun!

[@christopherlopez2491]

I first followed your html tutorial a few years ago. I always refer you as being the OG of web dev and I am very grateful for you opening the door for me. Ive learned so much and am learning tons, thanks to you. I took a boot camp and really got a leg up thanks to your teachings. Hope you have a great weekend.

[@AbhishekTiwari-cf8sp]

Always waiting for your new crash course, most powerful and useful for me❤️

[@sumayaNoman]

Hi Brad, I can't thank you enough for these videos which you make. You are doing such a GREAT JOB by sharing your knowledge with us.Thank you soooooo much.

[@Davidkiania]

Brad this is awesome and I loved every moment of it. You make it really seem easy and will certainly put this tutorial into good use. Much appreciation from Kenya!

[@robertmacwan8144]

Thanks for this video, i was so much struggling to learn css grid but you make this so easy to understand.

[@crimsonred0786]

This is incredible! I'm good with CSS in terms of knowing how to use Flex and Grid, but never knew how to actually make it look good on a webpage, thank you!

[@iancarr3923]

Excellent as usual. Appreciated the notion that the grid is useful for page layout and that flex (and grid) can then be use to organize elements within the grid area.

[@shutomasi]

This is one of the first times I've genuinely preferred to learn over doing something else. Your tutorials are great. I've only been following them for about a week now and I have a better grip on HTML & CSS then I did from secondary school & college.

[@gngn2973]

I've literally came back to this video 5 times already. Thanks so much for this makes things a lot easier. I've come a long way with dev since taking your Mongo course lol.

[@jamesmassa1999]

I've gone over this several times... this time it just clicked. Brad, not ever a waste of time watching your videos! Nice job as usual. 🙂

[@atifkhankarachi6271]

[@upstatenyrider8413]

Fantastic tutorial. I love you’re teaching style and the pace was spot on. This took my game up a notch in a sorely needed area.

[@MrSickonebk]

my man I have learn so much with you! thank you... you don't know how much I appreciate your tutorials

[@alanjerram9258]

A double thank you for the great instruction, from those learning to use grid and VS code at the same time. You are basically covering both. Your pace is quick, but that's why they invented the pause button!

[@London2ATL]

I'm jumping on this. Thank you so much. My fav KZbin teacher.

[@pw.70]

This is the best CSS grid tutorial on KZbin. Thanks for this.

[@victorekea]

I'm a testimony of Brad's awesome css grid courses. Thanks for sharing another awesome tutorial, Brad. ✨✨

[@alfonseandia]

Thank you! The project at the end actually made it stick more.

[@simply_the_dev7588]

How you use Grid is how I imagined it would be used for. Thanks for the refresher. I keep forgetting things and not writing them down. If I can visualize it like how you are setting it up I can remember it.

[@AverageComputerGeek]

This was an excellent lesson, very good pacing and explanations. I love that you showed the incorporation of Flexbox in the real world example. As a Flexbox fanboy, I do appreciate the ease of Grid and the additional layout css properties. I will have to go ahead and give it a go! Thank you!

[@DanielGuzman31]

Amazing tutorial like always Brad! Plus the new intro it’s awesome !

[@filipcruz7688]

Great tutorial. Clear, organized, and totally professional.

[@jonathanemmett8043]

I always come to your crash courses and udemy courses to fresh'n up on what is going on in the world of JS/CSS, etc. We tend to get stale working on the same stuff day in and day out, so it makes my brain start functioning again.

[@solomonhaile4502]

The way you organize the topics is awesome and I am into web development because of you making such informative content.

[@ElementoryMyDearWatson]

Terrific tutorial, clear concise and very easy to follow. Not an easy thing to pull off. Many thanks indeed.

Thank you Brad for making this video. I've learned a lot from you.

[@dpdoescode]

This as well as flexbox are so important! Can't recommend enough - gets you so far in terms of layouts. Thanks Brad 💪

[@hassanali-yi4bu]

Shut up

[@geekstudio.]

Will definately start watching Trav again as a supplement to my full stack studies...Currently doing node.js,python,php,and SQL!

[@Igor-ge1py]

Getting back into front end development. Grid and flex is a game changer. I remember doing table layouts in dreamweaver when I first started and then floats. I got so good with floats that I get an urge to use them again but have to catch myself and use grid and flex since they are so much cleaner and powerful. No more hacks to align stuff 🤭

[@magicmedia7950]

Great work Brad. As always!. Stay blessed brother

[@ashishtripathy2768]

Just Wow.To The Point Content. Making Complex topics easy . Thanks

[@lukramingo1496]

Great tutorial Brad, I learn a lot from your channel and now i survive coding journey from giving up way in last couple of years back.🏋‍♀

[@sirsanctified9380]

Great video, followed through till the end and the good thing is I really got something out of it

[@manashbehera961]

thank you for explaining this in a very simple manner.

[@ScriptRaccoon]

Really concise course, thanks! As for the project in the end, I suggest to change the media queries from max-width to min-width, i.e. do mobile first design. Then the "default" view of the cards is just stacked and very simple, and all the grid spans, cols and rows go to the media query. The advantage of this is that we do *not* have to reset the grid styles as shown in the video (51:00). So we achieve the same result with less code! This is very well explained as well in Kevin Powell's videos on responsive design.

[@lloadded]

oh i just understood that

[@TheKtiekat]

That was super helpful. Better than most vids I've seen in explanation.

[@JayantBB78]

Brad, I don't have words to thank you. You are really a great mentor for countless learners like me. You are awesome man. God bless you. Keep posting. Keep teaching. Love from INDIA. ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

Thank you Brad to you and your company Traversy Media for getting this polished and easy to follow video up online. Me after 13 years of touching any code I have to update a product calculator. CSS Grid with @media, wow! You are correct the younger ones may not know how good they've got it :)

always shining!! Thanks Brad

[@nivellen1168]

I thank you this! Recently, I noticed how much I sucked at CSS and thought of CSS Grids as the first thing to learn.

[@KeithHeilner]

Old guy here(retired). I'm not looking for a job but I love programming. Thank you for your crash courses. I'm in the process of building a weather station and I want to collect weather data and display it(dynamically) on my web page. Your courses are helping me achieve something that I would not be embarrassed to put out there.

I've taken a couple of courses already and they all go deep in the specifics but I still wasn't getting it, but you really teach the same way I learn with practical use explanations that are just really simple and easy to understand, and I learned so many VS Code shortcuts just from watching you work. Thank you so much, I will be doing your other courses as well

[@creativeprogrammer5850]

Thank you so much for this awsome crash course❤

[@AYUSH-fn6ql]

In the media queries part, instead of using grid-template-columns:1fr and changing all that spanning stuff, i used display:block and added a little margin here and there. It worked.

[@jaegercrown964]

A big thanks to you i was able to clarify the concept of flexbox and grid

[@azazali1785]
