Not sure If I'm following the right path...

Hi! I recently joined this course and I think the content is great but I'm not sure If I chose the correct path. I already know some basic HTML/CSS from books and another videos so I'm not lost, with this course I was expecting to start from zero on HTML/CSS but it is going too fast, again, so far I know what the instructor is talking about but I'm not sure If I picked the right course from these series. Are there another courses covering all the HTML/CSS basics?

Regarding grids, at some point or in another course are we going to learn about floating, positioning, etc? or are we just going to apply the grid method without knowing whats inside of it? Please don't get me wrong, I'm not complaining I just want to know If I'm in the correct course, If not please let me know.

Thanks Max, I'll check them out. One question, am I in the correct course? I mean, If I want to learn Web Development this is the first course or should I start with the links you sent me?

You can do either. The deep dive is as the name suggests a bit more detailed and if you find the building a simple website course a bit too fast then I would at least start with the html deep dive. The css foundations course is quite extensive and you probably don't need to finish it before you can return to building a simple website. Maybe looking at the first few lessons on selectors etc might help your understanding. Overall you are in the right track but making a quick detour through the deep dive might not be a bad idea.
