A LOT has happened recently that made me decide I wanted to centre my #100DaysOfCode project around #antiracism. My plan is to create an interactive online resource/database that highlights community organisers & resources in the UK. Wish me luck https://abs.twimg.com/emoji/v2/... draggable="false" alt="😅" title="Lächelndes Gesicht mit offenem Mund und Angstschweiß" aria-label="Emoji: Lächelndes Gesicht mit offenem Mund und Angstschweiß"> #WomenWhoCode
Day 1 of #100DaysOfCode

Created a rough draft of my structure & created the skeleton of a website with various pages on GitHub using HTML & CSS

Didn& #39;t get as much done as I wanted but hopefully tomorrow I can power through and create something worth showing https://abs.twimg.com/emoji/v2/... draggable="false" alt="😅" title="Lächelndes Gesicht mit offenem Mund und Angstschweiß" aria-label="Emoji: Lächelndes Gesicht mit offenem Mund und Angstschweiß">
Day 2 of #100DaysOfCode

Sooooo.....I ended up going back and scrapping my entire skeleton to start from 0 again

There& #39;s a slight chance I can& #39;t see the wood for the trees but I just keep telling myself if my foundation is strong everything else will fall into place more easily
Day 3 of #100DaysOfCode

Finally getting somewhere with the website pages https://abs.twimg.com/emoji/v2/... draggable="false" alt="🥳" title="Partying face" aria-label="Emoji: Partying face"> also used the day to refine my Bootstrap skills and do some really simple coding exercises to help myself feel less anxious #CodeNewbie #WomenWhoCode
Day 4 of #100DaysOfCode

Didn& #39;t feel great today so I kept coding to a minimum (I did create a rough form though- will edit tomorrow) & started collecting more resources to highlight. It& #39;s a heavy project I feel a strong emotional attachment to so I& #39;m taking it a little slower
Day 5 of #100DaysOfCode

Redid my mock-up for my project (themed around anti-racism work in the UK) & added a few things. I& #39;ve narrowed my original design down to 4 pages, 3 will be relatively simple (the design & the coding process), the final page is what I& #39;m worried about https://abs.twimg.com/emoji/v2/... draggable="false" alt="🥶" title="Cold face" aria-label="Emoji: Cold face">
Day 6 of #100DaysOfCode

Fiddled around with HTML & CSS for my website but I wasn& #39;t feeling great today so I didn& #39;t push myself super hard.

Does anyone else get migraines when they code? If you do, how do you deal with it? #WomenWhoCode #CodeNewbie

CSS is kicking my backside #CodeNewbie #WomenWhoCode #WomenInTech

Why https://abs.twimg.com/emoji/v2/... draggable="false" alt="👏🏽" title="Applaus-Zeichen (mittlerer Hautton)" aria-label="Emoji: Applaus-Zeichen (mittlerer Hautton)"> is https://abs.twimg.com/emoji/v2/... draggable="false" alt="👏🏽" title="Applaus-Zeichen (mittlerer Hautton)" aria-label="Emoji: Applaus-Zeichen (mittlerer Hautton)"> this https://abs.twimg.com/emoji/v2/... draggable="false" alt="👏🏽" title="Applaus-Zeichen (mittlerer Hautton)" aria-label="Emoji: Applaus-Zeichen (mittlerer Hautton)"> so https://abs.twimg.com/emoji/v2/... draggable="false" alt="👏🏽" title="Applaus-Zeichen (mittlerer Hautton)" aria-label="Emoji: Applaus-Zeichen (mittlerer Hautton)"> tedious

Days 39 - 41 of #100DaysOfCode

Does anyone else feel like they& #39;d be further ahead than they currently are?

I know the only thing to do is stick with it (& I am) but maintaining motivation is so difficult when you& #39;re teaching yourself

#CodeNewbie #WomenWhoCode #DEVCommunity
Days 42 -43 of #100DaysOfCode

I like CSS but it does not like me back...it& #39;s fine. I& #39;m fine https://abs.twimg.com/emoji/v2/... draggable="false" alt="🥲" title="Smiling face with tear" aria-label="Emoji: Smiling face with tear">.

After 3 days of having no wifi (literally AT ALL) I finally got to preview my code and it was shambolic https://abs.twimg.com/emoji/v2/... draggable="false" alt="💀" title="Schädel" aria-label="Emoji: Schädel">

Back to the drawing board we go
Days 50 - 51 of #100DaysOfCode

I bought two domains...I don& #39;t know why I think I just got excited.

Am I already becoming a domain hoarder? Is there a support group I can join down the line?

#WomenWhoCode #CodeNewbie #DEVCommunity
Day 52 of #100DaysOfCode

A friend of mine runs a construction business & asked me to create a mock-up for a landing page

Not responsive (yet) but I& #39;m into it so far!

(Icons are from a free library I tried making them via CSS but it was awful)

#WomenWhoCode #CodeNewbie
Days 53 - 58 of #100DaysOfCode

Seasonal flu (remember that? Good times) has been kicking my arse but on the bright side I& #39;m making progress with Python
Days 59 & 60 of #100DaysOfCode

When a project isn& #39;t going the way you wanted & nothing seems to fix the issue, how do you motivate yourself to carry on with it?

Day 61 of #100DaysOfCode

Current mood:
Day 62 of #100DaysOfCode

No coding but I started a (different) Python course on Udemy and it& #39;s already going wayyyyy better
Days 63 - 67 of #100DaysOfCode

I had a goal with 100 Days and although there& #39;s a snowball& #39;s chance in hell that I& #39;ll reach it, all I can really do is just keep chugging along hoping for the best https://abs.twimg.com/emoji/v2/... draggable="false" alt="🚂" title="Dampflokomotive" aria-label="Emoji: Dampflokomotive">
Days 67 - 76 of #100DaysOfCode

......yeah I dropped the ball on this one https://abs.twimg.com/emoji/v2/... draggable="false" alt="🤦🏽‍♀️" title="Frau schlägt sich die Hand vors Gesicht (mittlerer Hautton)" aria-label="Emoji: Frau schlägt sich die Hand vors Gesicht (mittlerer Hautton)"> started it with a very clear goal in mind but just got a bit (a lot) lost along the way.

It& #39;s fine though I& #39;ll just keep building up my skill set and when I do this again I& #39;ll be able to knuckle down
Days 77-82 of #100DaysOfCode

So on the bright side I know a lot more about coding & programming than I did at the start.

Unfortunately I don& #39;t know enough (yet!) to properly execute the project I started this account & this thread for. Disappointed in myself but we move
