In coding this webpage, I learned the importance of using a .css file to manage the style of a webpage in a concise, compact form that doesn’t directly relate to the .HTML file I was working on.

I found that replacing the information bound within the HTML file’s “chicken beaks” was the easiest part, and it helped me recall that these angle brackets help the HTML file create elements that a user can include in their program. I even added a new article so that I can fill out my educational information in the resume.

I found it troubling to find the coloration tags in the .css file, and I knew that these hex codes would change the overall color of my resume web page. They weren’t well-highlighted and I had a hard time finding them, but I suppose the difficulty of navigation is learning how to not be lost.

My submission could’ve stood to be more colorful, as compared with the color palette I had chosen. That being said, I don’t think the .css file was very liberal in terms of modification since I would’ve chosen different colors for the header texts in different sections. Perhaps the next variation of the project could also accommodate for that extra burst of creativity in students.

Knowing that a lot of graphic designers are commissioned or hired to design websites for people with the money to pay, I think these skills will come in handy for a part-time job or internship, creating websites for those who take up my offers.

I think the slideshow in the project folder helped me the most since it had a nice exemplar process that I could follow along with and check through my live previews in Brackets at the same time.
