This post is about the first project that I submitted as part of the Nano Degree Program. The project involved creating a website from a given mock up design. Since I have very little working knowledge of HTML & CSS, the project was fairly challenging.
The Intro to HTML & CSS provides necessary information to complete this project. The course was helpful and so much so that in one of the lectures the instructor actually goes through his own implementation of the project. Now this came in very handy :)
Twitter Bootstrap framework was introduced. Frankly now I feel more comfortable working with this frame work than using for example flex-boxes etc
[Note to self] It might be a good idea to get comfortable with flex design!
So, I turned in the project on October 23rd and received feedback a few days later. My code passed all specification except one that requires the submitted code to adhere to HTML & CSS Style Guidlines. Basically the guidlines tell you how to format your code, what conventions to use when naming variables, how to make your code more readable and elegant.
All in all, a good document and I totally missed reading it before submitting my project. Any how, after reading the code, most of my HTML was good and i just formatted, polished the CSS a litlle bit and submitted the project for a second time (multiple submissions are allowed) on November 7th.
Now, interesting to note that it was almost two weeks before my re-submission even though there wasn't much work to do. This was because...Along came version 2. More on this next :)
