Here we go!

 Hi, I’m Daniela but you can call me Dani. I’m a 33-year old English & Fine Arts teacher living in Finland and who has dived head first into the exciting world of IT and coding. This is the beginning of my IT journey. How exciting is that! The journey begins at JAMK, the University of Applied Sciences in Jyväskylä where I’ll be taking a nine-month long course about software development.

What do I know about software development? Nothing. Absolutely nothing. I’m a rookie. I’m a noob. But one has to start from somewhere so… here we go! :D

That is, if I can keep my hands off of it. Things I learned today: HTML attributes Comments <!- -  - -> <em> is better than <i>, and <strong> is better than <b> Some of the biggest IT gurus have homepages only with HTML (so don’t be too ashamed of your first 90s style site). John Kleinberg is a good example. Cool websites I discovered today: Codepen.io (try HTML, CSS and Javascript) W3schools.com (HTML codes) Devdocs.io (HTML codes) Internet Archive Wayback Machine (see how famous websites looked back in the day) Unicode-table.com (emojis for HTML) With the help of the course I started building m
