Stardance Progress Log: Poorup Development

Current Progress

• Learning Path: Almost completed the Basic HTML section on freeCodeCamp.

• Note-taking: Iam taking personal notes on semantic HTML, document structures, tags, and form elements.

My Learning Methodology (AI as a Mentor)

To make sure I actually understand every line of code I write, I am using a strict, self-guided approach to learning: First of all i have strictly said to the ai to never write code for me and never give me the answer and just show me how i could achieve it. Also the ai acts strictly as a mentor. It analyzes my goals and designs custom “Lab Challenges” formatted exactly like freeCodeCamp exercises (with Objectives, User Stories, and Test suites). Because i found this to be quite efective. Also i decided to install the live preview extenstion to see my code in person and debug it easiear.

What I’ve Built So Far

• Landing Page Structure: Created a solid textual game menu and lobby framework in public/index.html using headings (h1, h2), paragraphs, an unordered list for features, and an ordered list for instructions.
• Interactive Elements: Added call-to-action buttons for joining and creating lobbies.

Next Steps

• Currently working on Lab Challenge 2 given by the ai: The Player Registration Form to practice form validation, input types (text, radio, checkbox), and connecting labels with inputs via attributes.
• Once HTML basics are solid, I will start exploring basic CSS styling.
