Start Early!
Some assignments may seem easy, while others might seem hard. Either way, it's always
a good idea to start early to make sure you have enough time.

Read the Spec!
The spec is very specific and detailed, describing what your page look like, act like,
and be like. Make sure that you complete everything mentioned.
It can be helpful to highlight important points in the spec, or otherwise reformating
the spec in a way that's helpful to you! There's a lot of important details to make
you follow!

Stick with it!
Coding and webdev can be hard. But like other hard things, if you stick with it, keep
going, and persevere, you'll eventually get through it and figure it out. Remember,
all of the course staff are here to help you - feel free to reach out! You're always
free to email a TA, ask on Ed, or go to WPL!

Lint Your Code!
We offer a variety of tools to make sure your code matches what we expect in terms of
style, such as the GitLab CI and Gradescope validators and tests! Be sure to make sure
you have good code style before turning it in.

Explore!
The world of webdev is huge and ever expanding. From new frameworks to tools, new
things are always coming out for everyone to learn, even the TAs. Look around, and you
might find something really cool!

Go above and beyond!
If you have time, feel free to go above and beyond on your creative projects. You
might find that you've learned the skills to make something amazing!
