How much math do you need to know to code CSS

Very basic math will help you for stuff like the calc() function but that's it.

Unity or unreal engine?

Spent a good hour or two working on a user name component. It's just a simple input which stores the value in useState and displays the user name you chose on screen. I thought about implementing a login/logout system but that felt too complicated for this project.

The next and one of my final tasks will be implementing the ability to click on topics and displaying the messages. I will then need to find a way to respond to topics which will be fun.

VS Code.

Sad news. I will be taking a break from my project to continue going through The Odin Project. So far my GameFAQs clone:

• Has the main page which displays some games, the poll of the day and the Boards link
• Allows the user to create their own display name
• A board page which displays all the favorite boards
• Can easily click through each board and make topics
• Each topic is sorted by date and filtered by board

My project is getting bigger and I'm unable to find a way to pass my array that's holding the data for messages to another component so that I can freely click topics and read the message. I know about passing props but I don't think that will work as I've spent the past two nights trying to get it to work properly. I've been reading up on something called Redux which may help me but for now I want to continue with The Odin Project and then I will return to my project when I'm finished.

This project was my final project for the JavaScript lesson where I was supposed to clone my favorite website. Most people clone Twitter or Instagram by simply creating an array and displaying some objects on a single page. I wanted mine to be more than that and I've accomplished like 90% of what I wanted.

With the knowledge I'll be getting by continuing I can go back to this project in a few weeks and really finish what I started. Then I'll completely redo the CSS and create my own forum to display for my portfolio.

Now I'm on to the Advanced HTMl/CSS portion and then finally the MongoDB/Express section and then I'll be done!

What should I use if I want to create a message board with specific functionality?

I know javascript, html and css. Is that enough to make a custom board?

phpbb?

You'll need a database and server backend.
