Intro — Towards Greatness

Today, March 5, 2024, I started making my portfolio website, which is a kind of practice for me to learn HTML, CSS and JavaScript

My GitHub repository for the day 1

What I learned

Here are the things that I learned today:

CSS

Finally, I started learning CSS, which can give me an idea of how to build the structure of the website.

It was frustrating to practice CSS because it took me more than an hour to figure out why my styles.css was not linked to the HTML

But here are some of the things I practiced, and you can see too: styling with external, internal, and inline.

  • type selector — whatever comes under the type will affect in this selector
  • selectors
  • ID selectors
  • grouping selector
  • chaining selectors
  • descendant combinator
  • colour
  • background-colour
  • font-family
  • font-size
  • font-weight
  • text-align
  • image height and width
Here is the picture of the things I learned in coding
all the above things that I learned today.

After Effects

I believe that to build the uncovering.co media channel, I need to learn the after-effects.

This will help me to build the game and have higher production, which will eventually help make me quality content for my viewers

at the same time, I’m worried about OpenAI Sora, The reason being that thing can saturate the market for quality content makers

but at the same time helps me to build the quality animations at the best part

viralbytes.xyz

My other project is to build an agency that solves the problem of businesses getting quality animators.

In order to build a successful agency, I need to become a good coder and motion designer so that I can lead the team in a better way and get more business

It took me 8 years to realize that I’m more happy when I’m doing anything related to tech, coding or making content

That’s why I want to build the business around it.

My thoughts

My brain is saying that it will take me another year to blow up on YouTube, and only then will I be able to make the viralbytes.xyz successful

The reason is personal life stress that I wish on the internet, the other one is that I’m stuck in a job that I cannot leave right now and yes, it is not related to the money but some other major problem

But all I want is that by the end of this year, I will have at least 10K subs on the uncovering.co YouTube channel and at least 1 client for the viralbytes.xyz and my career, I will get a job in the tech industry

One of the reasons I want a job is that I love working for other people and it pushes me to build for other people and learn lessons that I apply to my side project, Also it makes me a more hungry person
