This repository is the sequel to the First Timers Night for Women Who Code. Each folder contains a sample project that can be worked on, along with the following contents for each project:
- Starter HTML/CSS template files (can be modified for your own project but please give credit)
- Required functionality for the project (aka "To Dos")
- Expected outcomes - screenshots displaying all possible outputs of the given project
- Extra functionality/ideas you can incorporate into the project (aka "Dazzlers")
While all of these projects can be worked on individually, the intent is that any one of these projects will be taught during a front end lab night as a supplement to the first timers nights.
- Download the repo. Clone the repo to your local if you have Git, or download the repo if you don't (see screenshot below):
- Read the project's
README.mdfile for more information on the project. - Create a new JS file in the project folder you wish to work in and add your code there. Be sure to link your JS file to the index page!
- View your changes by double clicking on the
index.htmlfile of the project you're working on within your computer's file viewer (Finder on Mac, Windows Explorer on Windows). - Refresh the page anytime you change something for the project if you want to see the differences.
That's all there is to it!
Check to make sure the mistake isn't one of the following:
- Missing brackets/semi-colons/tags
- Incorrect variable names (
myvaris not the same asmyVar) - Other Syntax errors
If the problem isn't a syntax error (or you're not sure if it is), searching online is your best friend. MDN is a great resource for general documentation, while Stack Overflow is great for very specific code questions.
If all else fails, another branch marian-answers has the completed JS files. Or create an issue on this repo if you think I'm missing something.
