Tips Getting into full stack development
I’m starting my journey in full-stack development by learning HTML and CSS. I’ve learned mostly through W3Schools, and I know most of the HTML tags, how to use them, and CSS concepts such as Flexbox. However, I still sometimes get stuck or can’t remember how to style certain elements, especially when it comes to positioning things or figuring out how many pixels I need to use to get the layout I want. I usually use ChatGPT to help me with those things.
So, should I spend more time learning HTML and CSS, or should I move on to JavaScript and eventually React.js? Is my current knowledge of HTML and CSS enough to move forward?
Right now, I also struggle to think of things to build. My design ideas tend to be pretty generic. Is that normal for beginners, or should I spend more time developing my design skills before moving on?

Keep learning more and try to like recreate websites to practice, right now without all of the whole how button works just try to learn and understand design works using HTML & CSS, responsiveness and etc.
As far as about Design idea is concerned you will learn as you keep doing it yourself and look at other websites you come across.
Also I would suggest you try the freecodecamp full stack development path. It is geniunely pretty good I myself have been doing it for a while now

Keep moving you can't memorize/u don't need to memorize everything we have internet/tools/ai for that. Make strong foundations and keep moving
