Week 1

I decided to start this week by learning more about building a website. I went through the fab archive from last year to get an idea on what my site should look like. After spending some time there looking at websites from former students, my next step was going to Codeacademy, a really nice site that offers free coding classes. There i took a class called "Make a Website" which i found very helpful.

I looked at 3 different text editors; brackets, sublime text and atom. After a short time with each one i found that atom was the one who spoke to me, and so i continued with atom. I decided to use a template rather then to write everything from scratch because i wanted the site to look decent. When i was looking at sites from former students i saw that a few of them recommended Html5up.net html5up.net, and there i found a template that i liked. After that i edited the template and tried to decrease it as much as i could.

When i started thinking about a possible final project i was almost complitly broke with ideas. My first idea was a bike but i was not that satisfied with it. After thinking about it for a little time i decided to build a lightsaber, both because of all the hype around the new Star Wars film and because i'm a big fan of them. The idea for now is to make a saber that glows, has sound effects, maybe some sensors and when you push or turn a button it changes colors. You can see this amazing sketch i did of the project down below :)

To add files to the git repository you will first to git pull
