I feel like learning CSS is waayyyy too hard. HTML was very easy to learn, but CSS is a whole 'nother story.

Idk where to start. Ive watched a bunch of tutorials but nothing. The only thing that saves me is copy pasting without knowing how to write it myself.

A bit old of a post, but I remember I learned CSS specifically to code on a site like this by just looking through W3School's CSS course. Of course not the WHOLE thing, but learn about what you would need.

For example, if I wanted to change something about my profile's section titles, then I'd just focus on finding the selector I should use and then searching up how to change the property of that. CSS is very similar to HTML, since it's very repetitive. For CSS, it's just a bunch of...

selector { property: value; }

over and over again. It also helps to look at other layouts' code for inspiration, or to see how they did something specifically. As for making layouts, I usually just use Inspect Element to preview my code.

This was a bit choppy, but hope this helps! :-)
