WP Contact form or code?

What is better?

To code my own form or just use Wordpress contact form?

If I use Wordpress contact form, is it possible to style it as I want?

    It depends.

    On the one hand, you get a form up and running in no time. Some forms have the feature to edit the style. Some don't.

    On the other, you take more time, but you have a form fit for your needs.

    As a newbie, don't be afraid to code your form.

      True..

      In reality, I'm still learning CSS and haven't gotten to Javascript or PHP yet.

      But I will try. Thanks.

        The best to learn is by applying the knowledge directly. You learn on the go.

        We don't wait to finish the dictionary before we speak.

        Your contact form problem is the best way to learn POST/GET requests, send the data to email or store in the DB, and many other things.

        I followed you on Twitter to see your coding journey.

        Good luck
