Hey Everyone and Welcome to Day 14!
Today's Goal!
For today I wanted to start to learn Bootstrap and then also start to use it in a website. I still need to work on my portfolio page some more, but I want to put that off for the moment because I want to get to the point where I feel comfortable releasing it, I will be basically rewriting it soon though. The website I decided I would use, the thing I learnt, on would be the project that I am working on for a friend. |
| My tutorial page for Bootstrap |
Learning to Bootstrap!
That's right I'm making Bootstrap into a verb. I loved what I have learnt of Bootstrap so far. However one thing I don't like is that I still need the reference page to fully realise what classes I need when making different parts of the page. I did however find a lot of components that I will be using on my portfolio page when I get round to rewriting it, using these layout features Another thing that bootstrap has taught me, maybe accidentally but still, it counts, is that you can put any attribute into a HTML tag and collect it using Javascript. This I never knew, I always thought that you could only use predetermined attributes, definitely something that will come in handy.. |
| The Jumbo-tron |
The Jumbo-tron!
The Jumbo-tron is perfect for what I want on my page. With a background on it, it will look perfect and will fully support what I want it to do, stretching from side to side and filling the screen. What I might do with this is, when the user scrolls past this, the navigation bar will stick to the top of the rest of the screen as this will then make a constant navigation system for the user to easily jump up and down the screen with, and even to other pages. |
| Using cards for Bart |
Cards!
Cards are perfect for me to show off my past work as well as showing off the skills part of my portfolio page as well. The cards with my previous work on them can include some text about the website, with the icons I was going to make anyway and then could finish off with a button for them to view the page. |
| The forms and alerts |
Forms!
The new form styles I have learnt will be used on the contact and hire me pages. I have already made the functionality for form validation and so the alerts will become very well used by alerting people when there are errors, as detected by the Javascript code I have written.Tomorrow's Goal!
What to do tomorrow? I'm not actually sure quite yet, I'll probably look to finish the Bootstrap tutorials that I am doing and then I can start to look at the Word press section, that is when this blog may very well migrate over to there. I still need to continue to work on this other project as well, but I think there is more I need to learn first. Finally I still need to continue work on that game I was making, remember that? I just about do! But for now,Happy Responding,
Matt!
