Beyond the Basics ✨
ADVANCED CSS FOR SQUARESPACE
You know that frustrating feeling when you have the perfect design in your head, but Squarespace's built-in options just won't get you there?
That's exactly why I created this course, to help you take your Squarespace website beyond the basics. You can use custom code to make Squarespace templates uniquely yours, and it’s easier than you think.
CSS is not rocket science. Learning to create code is not about becoming a full time developer or getting a degree in computer science.
When you can describe your creative ideas in a way that a computer will understand, you can turn any template into something uniquely yours. Translating your design ideas to computer code isn’t as complicated as it sounds.
I taught myself how to create custom CSS over years of Googling, YouTubing, and good ol’ fashioned trial and error.
The good news is that you don’t have to spend years studying this stuff - I already did that for you! I’ve turned my expertise into education and have successfully taught thousands of other Squarespacers how to confidently create code.
I’m ready to teach you how to do it, too!
