Textbook

Grid Garden

  1. First, open up the css-tricks Grid Layout Guide for reference.

    • This is going to be your best friend whenever you need to use grid!
  2. Then, complete levels 1–17 of Grid Garden 🥕

    • This is a modified version of the original that can export your progress.
    • You may complete the remaining levels if you want, but only levels 1–17 are required for this prep.
  3. Once completed, open the menu and click “Export Progress”.

    • This will download a grid-garden-progress.json file.

Learn Git Branching 🌳

  1. Read the version control section of the textbook first (5.7.X, pp. 228–234).

  2. Then, complete the Introduction Sequence (levels 1–4) of Learn Git Branching: commits, branching, merging, and rebasing.

    • Click the “Levels” button, then choose “Introduction Sequence.”
    • Use the in-app “Show Solution” only as a last resort.
  3. Once completed, open the level selector and take a screenshot showing that you’ve completed all four levels of the Introduction Sequence.
