On “Books/resources for graphic and frontend design principles?”
Hey I recommend starting with the principles of design on YouTube.I would personally recommend Satori Graphics for design principles and DesignCourse has a great tutorial about UI that also explains why he makes certain design choices. While you're looking into this I'd also look into SASS/SCSS because it'll help you speed up your styling workflow once you get the hang of it and it's relatively easy to learn if you already know CSS.
As for books, I'd recommend "The Non-Designers Design Book". It has a simple way of presenting design principles, I especially like the chapters about typography.
