How It's Made


Tech Used: HTML5, CSS3, JavaScript, JQuery, Responsive Tools





I built this website using HTML5, CSS3, JavaScript, and JQuery.

- HTML5 provided the structure and content for the website
- CSS3 was used to style and layout the website
- JavaScript was used to create interactive features such as the navigation bar and form validation.
- JQuery added some functionality when it came to styling and responsiveness.

I also used a responsive design approach to ensure the website looks great on all devices.



Optimizations


Here are some ways that I could increase performance on my website:

I could have:

- Minified and compressed all CSS and JavaScript files to reduce load times
- Optimized all images by reducing their file size and using correct image formats
- Implemented lazy loading for images to only load them when they are in the viewport
- Used a Content Delivery Network (CDN) to serve static assets from multiple locations
- Leveraged browser caching to improve page load time for repeat visitors
- Used Google PageSpeed Insights, GTMetrix, etc. to measure and analyze website performance and identify opportunities for optimization.

Spectral Salon is a pretty light webpage, so I really did not find it necessary to do any of these things. The page loads fine on any computer or device that I have tested it on.




Lessons Learned


Building my personal portfolio website was a great learning experience and I took away several valuable lessons.

- The importance of planning and organization in the development process
- The power of CSS Grid and Flexbox in creating responsive and flexible layouts
- The importance of performance optimization and website accessibility
- The importance of testing and debugging in the development process
- The significance of keeping up with the latest web development technologies and trends
- The benefit of using version control with Git and hosting the code on Github

A dark, slick, modern, responsive, adjective-drenched design built around an extremely
dynamic landing page (scroll that mofo!). Inspired by Big Picture, another design
of mine with a similarish feel/flow, only this time I took it waaaaaay further and
actually made it multipurpose (versus copping out and making it a one pager like I
did last time ;) Includes multiple pages, a bunch of pre-styled elements, and all
its Sass sources.
