Overview

I had an idea for a fictional landing page for an online course platform specialising in Web ( and design) Development. I designed and coded it from scratch into a responsive live website.

The challenge

Users should be able to:

  • View the optimal layout for the site depending on their device's screen size.
  • See hover states for all interactive elements on the page. -Navigate between sections and/or pages.
  • Send email via the form in the contact section.

My process

  • Planning – who is this website for and its goals and target audience?
  • How can I accomplish its goal through my development and design options?
  • Draw mockups of components and sitemap, then decide which section and content to keep.
  • Which responsive layout pattern serves each section best, CSS Grid or Flexbox?
  • Are there any reusable components or classes we can use?
  • Mobile-first approach. I used CSS resets and CSS variables, then set global styles, utility classes, typography and layouts for each section.
  • Javascript added for interactivity.

Built with

  • Semantic HTML5 markup
  • CSS resets
  • CSS custom properties
  • Utility classes and reusable components
  • Flexbox
  • CSS Grid
  • Mobile-first workflow
  • Javascript for menu, carousel and sign-up form

What I learned

After completing this project from scratch my CSS layout skills improved a lot and I got a lot of good practice in how to build and complete a project from the beginning to the end. This project was also a good way to incorporate utility classes to my CSS stylesheet.

Continued development

I will continue to improve with my layout skills. My aim is to get more comfortable with CSS grid and add more Javascript for functionality!

Useful resources

  • This landing page was inspired by what I was taught in Kevin Powell’s CSS Demystified course. This course improved my CSS skills! My layout skills are transformed and I am forever grateful!
