Day 14: Client Website
Today I continued work on the client website. I focused on building one of the other pages so I could have a foundation and build upon them further when needed. I was able to get about 25% of the layout completed. A great resource I found a few months ago was the Lorem Ipsum Generator,…

Day 13: Client Website
Whoops, I missed another day… But that’s okay because I came back! 😉 Slow but steady progress is how I look at my tiny victories. These are the goals I completed: I started setting up the HTML for the other pages. I finally figured out how to resize a Bootstrap svg image. I was having…

Day 12: Client Website and freeCodeCamp
Today was another combination of the client website and freeCodeCamp. For the first, I managed to hide the navigation bar links for smaller displays (got some help on better understanding onclick menus from W3Schools here) and resized the hamburger menu icon as they were duplicate values that were causing the sizing to be unaffected. I…

Day 11: Client Website and freeCodeCamp
I worked a little bit on the client’s website on ensuring the hamburger menu icon was displaying (thanks, Bootstrap, for your icon which I found here)! I attempted to include responsiveness but had to step back for a bit. I also focused on freeCodeCamp’s next challenge working with a JSON object. I was able to…

Day 10: Client Website
I’m always amazed at how quickly an hour whizzes by… The other big lesson 100 Days of Code is teaching me is becoming more aware of time management and trying to accomplish goals within that hour. Today’s goal was to continue working on responsiveness for the navigation bar. The biggest issue I struggled with was…

Day 9: Client Website
I ended up not being able to code yesterday. Thankfully, the rules for 100 Days of Code allow a one day break if you’re unable to do so but I made sure to drop back in today. My focus today was responsiveness – specifically changing the navbar and the links included. I also worked on…

Day 8: freeCodeCamp and Client Website
Sometimes website development (and learning) can be summed up by the expression in this photo… Today I decided to do a little bit of freeCodeCamp as well as attempting to make some progress for my client. I was able to get through three lessons on the first and attempted to make a bit of progress…

Day 6: Client Website Progress
Today, I focused my attention on the navigation bar. I was able to meet the following goals: Put some white space between the logo and the icon padding property Space out links within the navigation Bootstrap’s Navbar article under Brands headed me in the right direction but W3School’s Bootstrap 4 Navs and Shuffle for Bootstrap’s…

Day 4: Client Website Progress
“You see, but do not observe.” -Sherlock Holmes, “A Scandal in Bohemia” Today’s focus was on (successfully!) changing the font used in Bootstrap as well as customizing the included navigation bar. On my journey to solve the later, I found a number of interesting resources as per usual. The first was this Themes.Guide “How to…

Day 3: Client Website Progress
This is my first client who currently doesn’t have a website! I’ve made some progress in the last month but I’ve been held back by the uncertainty of some new concepts I haven’t mastered yet. It’s because of them (as well as some future projects I want to implement) that I’m pushing myself to learn…
