-4

I seem to spend a lot of time fiddling with the sizes of divs. I put in a rough guess and then have to fine-tune it till it's right. It takes ages.

I'm manually changing the width/height and margins.

Is there a better way? Or will I just get my eye in with practice?

  • I don't know what you are looking for design-wise exactly but what I recommend to you is to look into [Bootstrap](http://getbootstrap.com/) for example which would probably make your life easier. However, I don't recommend asking opinion-based questions like this as you will most likely end up with negative question points. Every developer might give you a different answer on this one.. – Takoyaro Jun 11 '16 at 14:16
  • thanks. I don't really want to use bootstrap. I was just looking for a quicker way to do it. What i'm using now is a chrome extension which allows me to measure things. I probably should have made clear I'm woriking through the odin course, which asks you to recreate pages such as youtube. I am a bit confused as to why this is considered opinion-based but i suppose it's preference how you do it. thanks for the tip though – Eric Gobbler Jun 12 '16 at 10:28

You can use relative sizes like in % and you can always use devTool of the browser to get the sizes right rather than going back and forth with the code. Here's an app that can help you know what size is what in advance
