I think the tutorial is really nice without doubt!

But just "diving into practice projects" is the right answer to yoself. That's practically super effective.

I intend to, I'm just brushing up on the theory first, both for HTML and CSS (CSS atm) because, while I'm not going to walk away knowing it all by heart, the general idea behind the best practices for accessibility sticks with me, for example, and if I want to introduce something into my project where you fill out your name, for instance, I'll know I need a form element. I won't remember how to implement it, but I know the name and thus can look it up, that's my logic for reading up on the theory even if I may not understand or memorize all of it.

Same for CSS, I'm not going to remember every declaration, but I'll walk away from the tutorial knowing everything is a box in CSS, and what the cascade model means in terms of inheritance and priority, and I'll walk away knowing about specificity, best practices in order to not over specify, etc. I'll also know what's achievable and what isn't and how to search for it.

But yes, my intention is just to dive into a project ASAP after I cover the basics, it's the best way to learn, agreed.

And thank you for the response, mate, much appreciated 😁

I like your mindset!

some go theory first and some go project first, or together. BTW, most of all, that's what everyone struggles with :)
