tboimahyeah11:02
jelknerone thing i should clarify11:02
jelkneri still plan to continue supporting this project after august11:03
jelknerbut i will be earning far less income next year11:03
jelknerso my ability to provide financial support will be greatly reduced11:03
jelknerfor that reason, we need to move to find other sources of income11:04
jelknerthat means billable work11:04
jelkneri think you are on track11:04

tboimahsure11:05

jelknerthank you for all your leadership, my friend11:07
jelkneryou are a huge part of our success in this effort!11:07
tboimahbecause we both was first trying to learn HTML, CSS, and Javascript11:07
tboimahbefore moving to Django 11:08
tboimahbut when you11:08
tboimahtold me11:08
tboimahto learn Django 11:08
jelknerso here is the tricky part11:08
tboimahi stop learning that for now11:08
jelknera web application is a complex piece of software with a lot of moving parts11:08
jelknerthe parts are all interconnected11:08
jelknerbut they are not arranged in a "linear sequence"11:09
jelknerthat means there isn't a clear, "learn this, then learn that"11:09
jelknerall the pieces need to fit together11:09
jelknerwhen designing templates in Django, you use HTML and CSS11:09
dcammueGood morning jelkner scooper and tboimah 11:09
jelknerdcammue, good morning!11:09
jelknerbut here is where team work could come in handy11:10

jelknerand ask dcammue to create the templates for you11:10
