Well addressed, consts are important enough. The use of drawings is very distracting though. Sometimes confusing (use of backtick for opening quote e.g.) even. Lack of contrast and too small letters on small screens is another issue. Again, good content, and relevant as well. Hard to read though.

Thanks
For me constants are as well important as variables, that's why i am explaining them first.

Where do use think I am using backticks? Is it my double quote style?

About the small letters and lack of contrasts, if you have particular examples to show to me and an idea of improvements it will be nice.
Thanks :)

Showing both lack of contrast and backticks in double and single quotes.

Again, you are addressing an important topic in a good way, complete and correct. The use of images and stylistic transformations do more bad than good.

I updated the illustrations of a constant to change the color of the text, the color of the background and to change my way to write double and single quote.
Is it better?
No more troubles?

If now it's no longer a problem and reading is enjoyable, it's the most important :)
