Out of the three projects, I definitely felt most nervous to begin this one because I had little to no experience with HTML or CSS coding. I was surprised that I actually found it to be a very fun experience. Coding always seems daunting at first, but once you gain a deeper understanding of the language, it becomes an exciting challenge to try and decipher it.
Where I struggled most with this project was getting used to the overall structure of the language for HTML and CSS. I had to use conscious effort to make sure I was focusing on individual parts as their own pieces to the puzzle instead of becoming overwhelmed by looking at the entire coding script. That was especially important when I encountered errors and had to find what exactly had gone wrong. That being said, it was also extremely satisfying when the coding worked and it produced the desired result. I have a long way to go in becoming proficient at this skill, but going through this project just motivated me further to continue working on my progress in the future.
Overall, I appreciated that this project didn’t just allow us to apply a new skill, but also gave us a chance to reflect on all the work we’ve done over the past six weeks. I feel like I have learned so much over such a short period of time and I am excited to use this momentum to keep learning from here.
