And so it Begins

I made a website to share all of my projects! By creating this website, you're able to read the words you're reading right now. I've been wanting to make a website for a while and last weekend I decided to dive right in and do it. So, over the course of 3 days, I designed this website which I hope to continue updating. It was made with only HTML and CSS. I designed the home, projects, about, contact, and blog pages.
To create this website, I relied on three main sites. These were FreeFrontend, Codepen, and ChatGPT. FreeFrontend is a great resource for finding CSS examples. These examples I found on FreeFrontend would then link to Codepen where I could look at the code. If I had any questions about the code or anything I wanted to change but wasn't sure how to, I'd then go to ChatGPT. Between these resources and my own knowledge and problem-solving I was able to figure stuff out. In particular, the sites I used helped me a lot with the project and blog pages.
The most challenging part of this project is by far was responsiveness. Allowing this site to work with a variety of screen sizes isn't necesarily intuitive and as someone new to CSS, it was a lot of playing around until things would look nice.
This was a fun project. I learned a lot about website development. This site does not use javascript. Maybe I'll learn it and add to this website in the future, but for now I'm gonna take a well earned break from website development and work on some other projects.
