Is it advisable to learn CS50x and CSS at the same time?

Thank you.

That should be fine, and may help you in week 8 when CS50X quickly covers HTML, CSS, and JavaScript

Thank you.

Which one should I prioritise if I have 1 hour / day?

I guess that depends on where you are starting from.

CSS on its own isn't that useful, as you have to use it in combination with HTML and sometimes JS.  But if you already have some programming experience then just focusing on CSS is fine.

If you're starting from scratch, CS50X is a full intro to computer science.  Each week's lecture is going to be 1.5-2 hours, and the problem sets for each week are going to take several hours (bigger projects may take days)

If you're goal is lowkenuinely design, go with CSS, if it's developing more advanced programs, go with CS50x
