CalTrans Front End Forms with Bootstrap

All I can say is I am very impressed with Bootstrap. I went from doing things on WordPress for the last two weeks to going back to manually coding a site and it was a good time. Nothing beats reading the documentation that helped me out a ton.

For this project, from starting with a piece of paper and understanding what was needed to getting the site done took 9 hours for my brother and I.

It was all front end so if the code looks wonky it's because it's just the front end design. Regardless, I'm glad we got it done on a tight schedule.

Internship Site Update

Wow, first of all, I learned a ton at WordCamp OC 2018. I still can't believe how big of a community WordPress has around it.

As far as my internship website update, I've been learning how to use WordPress and so far it's pretty good. I have a local environment set up on my PC and for testing purposes, but I wanted a way to show my supervisor what I've been working on without physically meeting up and showing him on my laptop... So I used a plugin (WP Static HTML Output) to output the WordPress site as a static HTML site, and then uploaded it to GitHub.

Check it out!

(Note: it's still being updated for the content/design. It's not finished yet!!)

WordPress? CMS?

I've started an internship to update a website for a non-profit. When my supervisor was telling me that he wanted the site to be easy to update... for non-techie people... I knew I couldn't just make a static site from HTML / CSS / JS. 

I needed to use a Content Management System (CMS).

After googling and googling around I decided to go with the ever popular WordPress.

A good tool I found to install WordPress locally is Laragon. So far I've been tinkering with it and doing more research on how to make a decent WordPress site.

I'm also planning to attend OC WordCamp this weekend! The timing was perfect as they only had 7 spots left.

Annoy-omatic

This is an assignment from class. Here were the rules:

Annoy-omatic  

Create your own index.html

Ask the user " Are we there yet"

Keep asking again and again until they enter "yes" OR "yeah"

Then, alert "Yay, we finally made it!"

When I started this assignment I had an idea of what I wanted, a popup box that asks "Are we there yet?"

I wasn't quite sure how to do that because all I knew was the alert() method. So Google I went searching for "javascript alert box with input".

That took me to this JavaScript - Dialog Boxes tutorial and the rest was easy.
