CSS

As I mentioned in my last post, I virtually knew nothing about CSS before completing the Code Academy tutorials. After finishing the module, I came away with a lot better understanding of CSS, how valuable it is, and how an organization could use it. One of the more important takeaways from the tutorials was learning about the cascading style sheet. I learned how to create one, attach it to an html document, and use it to create a template for a website. For example, I now know how to create a style for any element that I may want to customize. If I want all of my headings to look a certain way, I can go to the CSS and do that. 

I can really see the value of a CSS template to the organization. If a company has one, or multiple style templates, it makes it relatively easy to create and edit their website. This way, if more than one person has to edit the site, they won't mess up the original, desired layout or design because it will be on the style sheet.
