A product designer learning web development
I signed up for a Web Development Bootcamp on Udemy. Why? It's Steph Smith's fault.

I am a full-time product designer at an exciting early-stage startup and I just signed up for a Web Development Bootcamp on Udemy.
Why?
It's Steph Smith's fault.
She is a great writer and creator and has a working style that I love. She says that one of the best decisions she's ever made was to learn how to code and she got started with the WebDev Bootcamp by Colt Steele on Udemy.

So I signed up immediately after I purchased her book, Doing Content Right.
I already have years of experience trying to make my own things (including customizing this website) so I'm not starting from zero. However, as time goes on I feel the need to understand front end web development better to think through solutions and come up with new possibilities.
I have scheduled a small amount of time each day to work through the course and I will post my progress here periodically.
