Oleg learned the fundamentals of HTML & CSS and web design through University HTML & CSS learning path after learning JavaScript. These courses are still his favorites today, since the pacing is great, and the overall scope of what they cover allowed him to acquire a stronger foundation to this.
For those unfamiliar, Less & Sass are CSS transpilers that allow you to write CSS in a more elegant manner. This lets you do things that aren’t normally supported, like nesting CSS rules. Once finished, these CSS transpilers “compile” your code and convert it to normal CSS.
