Kicking Off 2025: January's Mission to Master HTML & CSS Fundamentals

Happy New Year! 🎉

With 2025 here, I’m excited to embark on my journey to specialize in web development with the MERN stack. As per my roadmap, January is dedicated to mastering the fundamentals of HTML and CSS, including frameworks like Bootstrap and Tailwind.

However, balancing this plan with my exams this month means I need to adapt my approach. Instead of tackling full courses and all associated projects, I’ve decided to work on four focused projects. These are from Brad Traversy’s Web Development Guide and will serve as an excellent refresher:

  1. Professional Website From Scratch (HTML & CSS For Beginners)

  2. SpaceX Website Clone (HTML, CSS & JavaScript)

  3. Bootstrap 5 Crash Course (Website Build & Deploy)

  4. Tailwind Crash Course (Project From Scratch)

Each week of January will be dedicated to one project. I’ll also take time during weekends in subsequent months to go through the full courses and retake certifications where needed. This balance allows me to stay on track with my roadmap while managing my academic responsibilities.

I’m looking forward to sharing the progress of these projects and the lessons learned along the way. Here’s to a year of growth, focus, and achievement! 🚀

Wishing everyone a fantastic start to 2025! Let’s make this year count.
