I think Vim would be the next thing I learn after I know how to write code and have written some for lets say about 4 months.

After that, if a person really liked the Visual Studio Code, it can install the vim plugin for it, and the whole coding experience will become so much better.

In my search to find out resources that I can use to make my websites better, I think the best so far is this bennettfeely.com/clippy/
It is CSS clip-path generator to create cool shapes on images and put a creative spin on image display.
