The week started out with a steep uphill learning curve. Thankfully, there are no problems, only solutions.
First things first. In order to finish the first part of the assignment, I first needed to understand what I was up against. A quick youtube research intro into html showed me that not only did I need my html skills improved, but I also needed to learn CSS (which I now know is a part of the process). Off to Code Academy.
UPDATE 2/5 2016:
The previous website that I had was not nearly up to standards. I googled around for improvements and found a simple dropdown menu that I later modified at codepen.io. There are many examples that are free to use over there. After hours of trial and error this is the webpage that I made. It is not perfect, but its also my first webpage so I'm proud of it.
GIT: Git is a neat little program that allows a group of individuals to work togeather on projects. It has features simmilar to other file shareing programs - clones information and stores history if any misshappenings occur.
First, git needed to be downloaded from the git website. Installing the software was pretty easy, just use all the recomended settings etc. When the program was installed, it needed to be pointed towards the repository that our instructor had already prepared. The only thing needed was an SSH code that could be found at the fab academy Reykjavik webpage. The rest went something like this:
I struggled a bit this week with deciting on what I want to do for my final project. Its not that I don't have ideas, its more deciding upon something realistic and within the scope of the 6 months. To throw something out there, that is probably going to be replaced with something else, I thought about an indoor smart flowerpot for bonsai - both functional with automatic lighting, feeding and watering system, but also aestic's for my living room.
