Learn about: ▪ DOM manipulation: How to dynamically update page content. ▪ Event handling: Responding to user actions (e.g., clicks, form submissions). ▪ AJAX: Asynchronous communication with servers. 4. Master Responsive Design: ◦ Understand media queries and create layouts that adapt to di erent screen sizes (desktop, tablet, mobile). ◦ Learn about exbox and CSS grid for e cient layout design. 5. Get Comfortable with Version Control: ◦ Use Git to manage your code versions. Familiarize yourself with repositories, branches, and commits. 6. Explore Front-End Frameworks: ◦ Frameworks like React, Angular, and Vue.js simplify front-end development. ◦ Choose one and dive deep into its concepts and usage. 7. Learn About APIs: ◦ Understand how to make API requests from the front end to fetch data (e.g., JSON) from servers. 8. Build Projects: ff fl ffi ◦ Apply your knowledge by creating small projects. Start with a personal portfolio website. ◦ Collaborate on open-source projects or contribute to existing ones. 9.
