//Build a personal site
For our second assignment we were asked to build a personal website, which will be our portfolio which will host documentation for assignments and which steps we went through to finish them. I don´t have any experience with Web development, so I need to learn from the beginning. In the following sections I will briefly discuss the different tools I used and what I used them for.
I start following the CodeCademy Tutotial
I. REED THE HTML TUTORIAL: https://www.codecademy.com Learn HTML: Elements and Structure 1. Let's analyze the acronym "HTML," as it contains a lot of useful information. HTML stands for HyperText Markup Language. • A markup language is a computer language that defines the structure and presentation of raw text. Markup languages work by surrounding raw text with information the computer can interpret, "marking it up" to be processed. • In HTML, the computer can interpret raw text that is wrapped in HTML elements. These elements are often nested inside one another, with each containing information about the type and structure of the information to be displayed in the browser. • HyperText is text displayed on a computer or device that provides access to other text through links, also known as “hyperlinks.” In fact, you probably clicked on many, many hyperlinks on your path to this Codecademy course! 2. must be the first line of code in all of your HTML documents. If you don't use the declaration, your HTML code will likely still work, however, it's risky. For now, the browser will correctly assume that the html in is referring to HTML5, as it is the current standard. 3. To create HTML structure and content, we must add opening and closing tags, like so: Anything between the opening and closing tags will be interpreted as HTML code. Without these tags, it's possible that browsers could incorrectly interpret your HTML code. 4. HTML Anatomy How HTML elements are structured? The diagram to the right displays an HTML paragraph element..
To built my website I decided to use Visual Studio Code which is provided for free, a friend of me recomend me.I think that it has a great interface for new users. What is more it provides a lot of plugins, including Bootstrap one, which I will describe in next section.
I wanted to have a nice interface on my page, so I reed the CSS titorial https://www.manualdecss.com/. Is really good for beginners:
And now I present the design of my web page for the netx 6 months you can check the growing of my final project.
Nowadays the use of natural pigments has been replaced by chemicals, since you can access them all year round, that the range of colors is infinite and its cost is lower. However the pollution generated by artificial pigments especially in water and in the health of those who manipulate it, it is high. On the other hand, the use of natural pigments has been banned in several countries because of the damage to the ecosystem.
FABcolor seeks to reduce pollution by dyes or artificial pigments, rescue ancestral knowledge regarding the use of natural pigments without the need to affect nature and promote local development giving access to communities and cities to create their own pigments.
My final project integrate traditional techniques and knowledge of color manufacturing, with digital manufacturing, and thus achieve your color culture at home and produce locally.
Below I present the structure of
my idea.
