We were introduced to the basics of creating a functional website. While a prototyping tool is useful for design, most prototyping tools do not create functional websites. Typically, a web designer will pass a prototype to a web developer (or team of developers) to make the design functional. The basic HTML and CSS skills learned from this project helped me to understand how the web works to better communicate my design ideas in the future.

For this project, I designed a single-page responsive website for a city (real or fictional) that I have never been to. We were tasked with researching and creating a site that promotes the city and encourages tourists to travel there. It is responsive, so it adjusts to different browser sizes. It is accessible in that it follows accessibility best practices, including organized content with a clear HTML hierarchy, appropriate color contrast, and appropriate text sizing.
