  • Project Background
  • I've had an interest in learning html and css and finally put effort toward this. Everything viewable at https://jesslikes.work is displayed with custom html and css.

  • Challenge
  • Squarespace has been my chosen provider for a long time because it has nice template options and is friendly for people who don't code. However, there are limits to how I can customize my webpage and it is quite costly.

  • Solution
  • I learned and practiced html and css by reading tutorials and building my design from scratch in github. Afterwards, I transferred my code to Squarespace as custom html and css with minor adjustments. I still rely on Squarespace for other features, though this practice may open new possibilities for me to host my work elsewhere soon.
