As some of you might know, I have been working on video courses for Blocs for some time. The main course is still one month away from being completed, but the basic Getting Started with Blocs course is available today.
This course includes 14 videos designed to help a complete beginner to build a website in Blocs from scratch.
@Eldar one other suggestion might be adding a small down arrow (icon) under the headings. I looked at the course listings and didnāt really know the course info was hiding below. Really like how you laid it out just thinking maybe a little helper to go with them might help lead the user to the info.
Now thats SWEET! Love the popup signup on the desktop view. Iāve not seen that done with Blocs. I think the play arrow is really helpful. Iāve found asking for advice on a new design very helpful. Iāve had a lot of forum members give me great feedback (suggestions). I find if Iām really open to feedback I normally come up with a better design.
I went through the videos and you did a really nice job explaining the basic features. If new users sign up and take the free course it will really give them a jump start using Blocs.
Iām looking forward to seeing the Bloc Master course outline.
I agree @pauland has helped me several times. I know a lot of users help members but I think @norm should give pauland the forum helper of the year award.
Casey, thatās very flattering, but I have picked up a huge amount of stuff from other peopleās posts here and I know for sure several people eclipse what I know of Blocsapp, CSS and Javascript for sure.
Thanks for the kind words from you and Eldar.
Eldar, Iāve looked at some of your videos and they really are good - the high production values in the lessons are evident and you really know your stuff.
Not taken a hard look at your site, butā¦ why is āAbout meā on this page?
Iāve certainly commented on a fair few websites, but really itās only where I think people may be going astray. Iām no definitive expert in this field and Iām reluctant to be some kind of website filter on the forums.
Paul, I thought this site should have a section about the creator, but I guess I shouldnāt put it in the global footer area, and just leave it on the home page.
You are saying that there are people who know more about Blocsapp, CSS, and JS in our forum, and that might be true, but thatās not what makes you the best helper. It is the effort and time you are investing in writing each and every post here. Plus, I like that you are very direct with your suggestions.
When I read here through the forum, @pauland and of course a few others, like Jukerland and Eldar,
should be become a special badge for their help and efforts.
Absolutely.
