Blogs for technical set-up and UX clarity

Posted by

These blogs are a ragtag collection of tutorials on coding, setting up for coding, and redesigning the UX of a couple of companies with the addition of a line or two, along with reflections on how to create an online course, best practices as I engage in technical explorations and the creation of educational content.
