Independent Practice 3A: Articulation

Page 25

I feel making my website was an extremely challenging task but all the more beneficial. I started off using very basic HTML I picked up from the beginner’s HTML workshop and I developed my skills from there. I went on to discover and understand CSS (cascading styling sheets) to format the page’s aesthetic, and using HTML to create the various elements on the page, using online resources to further my knowledge.

My website reached the point at which I was visually pleased with the result, with over 370 lines of css code and more than 100 lines of html per page. However, I was looking for more ways to make the loading less clunky and more exciting. After finally getting to grips with HTML and discovering what CSS was, I then found myself tampering with Javascript to create fade ins and transitions.

Before I made my website I was completely unaware of either CSS or Javascript and their functions however now I feel confident using them in the creation of websites. There are a few minor tweaks that need to be made such as configuring my CSS so the web page fits all resolutions but I’m very happy with the result as it currently stands.
