This website!
Background
Having recently taken a Web Development class, I decided it was the perfect time to create a personal website. The ASP.NET framework I had learned in class was overkill for the static site I needed, so I had to focus on learning more about html and css.
Working prototype
Up to this point, I was only familiar with the ASP.NET framework and Bootstrap, so I had to familiarize myself with writing HTML and CSS from scratch. I was able to get a hang of both pretty quickly and created some custom animations for some text, which actually turned out pretty well! You can check out this iteration on my Github. I'm pretty proud of it, but it didn't really live up to the aesthetic standard that I was hoping for. Here is the landing page, which was my favorite part about iteration one.
Final product
I eventually found a public style sheet that I liked much better. I enjoyed the work I put into the first few iterations of the site and learned a ton about web development, but I'm pretty happy with how it turned out.
