Thanks Eadwine, I hadn't notices the change in where we mark solved but think I did it right.
I actually have a couple of glitches to sort out, not testing on a Linux machine directly yet, but these relate to the debugging and new project features, marketplace availability and confusion around the MS and open source versions, besides. I also added Phoenix Code and will soon be applying version control, using GitHub, so already prepared a bit with corresponding apps.
I'm already finding it great to use for HTML and JavaScript, working on HTML/CSS & JavaScript, I know a bit about using in html, but now, as an external file and creating containers, objects, variables, functions etc to do stuff.
Figma is more box layout and design platform, easy enough so far, not so different from site builders in the menus, but having worked with tables and text and publishing generally, styling and fonts and other things will be really helpful visualising things when manipulating box properties like padding, margins and other elements.
C# is where I need coder debugging working but will get a hand from the guru early next week, staring with W3Schools or another editor for now, which is probably where I'm at, basic lessons, although I readily follow some of the more complex math functions demonstrated, loops and so on, if still unfamiliar with the syntax and rules of C# itself. It's quite cool and insightful to watch live coding via screen share by teachers.
I've definitely absorbed and learned a lot via MX and the forum, besides good file management and html experience to set me up. With so much AI and assistive tech for coding and design, I just look forward to practicing writing, typing, getting used to the coder features and kb shortcuts, building my own libraries of templates and then doing it more formally via some assessments and GitHub.
I've automatically used
Code: Select all
code code formatting tags where needed in the student platform (although it renders it inline as a button-like or background filled style you'd recognise from elsewhere), kind thanks all here and for much else.
