update

After my frustrations with JavaScript, I have turned a corner. Watching the Tutorial I linked to in my last post, I have been able to understand a little bit more. I have now progressed on through my JavaScript course on codecademy. Not finished it yet but I’m getting on a lot better with it.

I edited my website a couple of times since uploading, changing so layout and adding bits of content. I have a couple of other thing in my head to put on there and will do when I get round to it.

I had a bit of look at treehouse the other day after seeing an advent. I wasn’t overly impressed I searched for reviews and the content looks limited and interface not overly friendly but one way to find out is take the free trial. Which I will do when I have the opportunity to take advantage of it.

Its my website showing currently what i have learnt in HTML/CSS so far.

Notepad++

The first code editor I'm going to review for pc/windows is Notepad++.

This editor I downloaded on to my girlfriend laptop along with sublime to see how thing go and I really like how this work.

If I'm honest I used sublime exclusively until its started to tell me I needed to register. Sublime is nice but the registration is not happening at 70 quid!

I moved to notepad++ and I'm glad I did, Notepad++ is bright, user friendly, feature rich and generally nice to use.

As I said in my last post, I can’t offer anything of use to anyone who code regularly but as a beginner I think notepad++ is one of the nicest to use.

Extremely easy install and its Free! Can’t get much better than that. Download it here.

Although notepad++ doesn’t have a preview window you can easy save (ctrl+s) and run in browser (ctrl+alt+shift+r for chrome). Great for checking you changes. I have only used it for HTML so I’m unsure on it uses for python for example although it is compatible. 

Its worth a shot lol 

My new review series.

Welcome,

Updated my last post to make it look a lot better, posted via Blogger for android and haven't worked out if you can edit font etc.

Anyway the first post of the new series. I'll first outline was I'm going to review and then a new addition a mobile editors.
(I'm currently sat in lazer-force Leicester at a kids party, wife says I'm not allowed to play. Needed something to past the time.)

So which editors I'll review,

1.Notepad++

I was going to review more than just this one, but I was thinking about what I could write about than I decided I'm completely under qualified to write about anything of any use to any body who uses code editors proficiently. So I'm going to write about Notepad++ and why I like it. 

Which mobile editor? Although I think I have more to offer here, I only have an Android phone and can't provide a decent insight so I'll talk about the one I use.

1.Webmaster pro (only reviewing the pro version as I bought this prior to writing this series.)
