How do I sign in with an account in VS Code?
I contacted VS Code on Twitter and they told me this feature only works in VS Code Insiders and not in the Stable VS Code. I assume it will be available in the stable one as well but I haven't asked when.

How do I sign in with an account in VS Code?
I can see there's an icon in the bottom left corner that says "Accounts" but when I click on it, all it says is: "You are not signed in to any accounts". I looked all over the settings and the file menu, but still couldn't find how to create an account and sign in. Any help will be much appreciated! Thanks.

Why display: table; in clearfix?
.group::after { content: ""; display: table; clear: both; } I just do not understand why the value of the display property is set to "table". Why?

Should we *always* use wrapper divs?
This comes from MDN: So, I can't put <main> inside a wrapper div?

Everything you need to learn about web development (and more!)
You should see this file I am attaching at all cost. It took me quite a bit of effort to collate it. It contains everything you need to learn about web development in 2020, plus some web design and Tech. It was meant just for me, but I thought other people would benefit if they see this extremely detailed list. Do let me know if I've missed anything.Computing and IT study and practice - Google Docs.pdf

Do people here work from home now?
I'm a student so I study at home, but I'm wondering if professionals here have to work from home due to the Coronavirus pandemic? How do you collaborate with other people if that's the case?

What exactly are frameworks and libraries?
I looked on the Internet for an explanation, but I am still a relative beginner and couldn't understand the jargon. What, in simple, lay terms, are frameworks (such as React.js, Angular.js, and Vue.js) and what are libraries (such as Node.js and jQuery)? Why are they so important? Should I learn more than just one of those?

A Full Stack developer needn't be an expert in many things?
Thanks, Robert!

A Full Stack developer needn't be an expert in many things?
This person says about Full Stack developers that they don't need to be an expert on all fields (front end and back end), and that they should know "the basics, or maybe the advanced basics but rarely everything". Is this true? If it is, then I will feel more relieved knowing this, as I want to be a Full Stack developer.

I am not entirely sure whether the JavaScript engine is the same thing as the JavaScript interpreter. Apparently, Chrome's JS engine is V8.

Should I stop using 'var' in JavaScript?
This article urges people not to use var in JavaScript and instead use const and let for declaring variables. What do you think about that? https://levelup.gitconnected.com/stop-using-var-to-declare-variables-in-javascript-6c0caec16f43

I understand. Thanks, Robert.

Databases and mySQL for a Full Stack dev?
What a great reply, Robert! The problem is, I've already subscribed to the Treehouse Full Stack JavaScript Techdegree course (just recently resumed it). Will they not hire me with this degree or do I have to learn all these things you listed in addition (I don't think all of them are taught in this Techdegree)? Where do I go to learn all these? If I remember correctly, you told me Treehouse is all I need to get a job.

Where should one put the JavaScript: in the <head> or <body>?
Why do some developers put the <script> tag in the <head> while others in the <body>? Which is preferable or recommended? Is there a difference at all?

Databases and mySQL for a Full Stack dev?
Do I have to learn mySQL or something similar if I want to become a Full Stack developer? I assume I have to have at least some knowledge of databases.

3 or more columns side by side
I understand. Thank you!

3 or more columns side by side
I am learning about floats at the moment, and how you can float an element either left or right. But what if I want to set 3 or 4 columns side by side? Should I use tables in such a case or is this bad practice?

Thanks. I didn't know that. I was also curious when cookies were needed.
