There are some fantastic resources online which can answer pretty much all of your questions. One of the first things to practice is using Google effectively. It's important that we consider Time as a finite resource and spending a lot of time looking and not finding good quality information can be a problem.
You can start by just asking Google, how do i google effectively?
For web-development-specific questions, it's good to include notable websites in the query, here are a few popular ones:
- MDN - ie,
mdn on click handler - CSS-Tricks - ie,
css tricks flexbox - Stack Overflow - ie,
stackoverflow hover state hidden
These are good ways to make sure you're getting the best information, quickly. Also, for sites like Stack Overflow, you can see how certain answers are rated by other users, and read their comments to figure out what's the best solution to the problem you're trying to solve.
