Rookie Project01 - Room homepage

Design preview for the Room homepage coding challenge

Welcome! 👋

Greetings, intrepid explorer!

We trust that our workshop has served as a valuable compass on your path to becoming a masterful web developer.

Behold, your inaugural undertaking as a fledgling member of the web development community! You shall now put into practice all that you have gleaned thus far in the ways of HTML, CSS, and JS.

To do this challenge, you need a basic understanding of HTML, CSS and JavaScript.

The challenge

Your challenge is to build out this e-commerce homepage and get it looking as close to the design as possible.

You can use any tools you like to help you complete the challenge. So if you've got something you'd like to practice, feel free to give it a go.

Your users should be able to:

  • View the optimal layout for the site depending on their device's screen size
  • See hover states for all interactive elements on the page
  • Navigate the slider using either their mouse/trackpad or keyboard

Where to find everything

Your task is to build out the project to the designs inside the /design folder. You will find both a mobile and a desktop version of the design.

The designs are in JPG static format. Using JPGs will mean that you'll need to use your best judgment for styles such as font-size, padding and margin.

You will find all the required assets in the /images folder. The assets are already optimized.

There is also a style-guide.md file containing the information you'll need, such as color palette and fonts.

Building your project

Feel free to use any workflow that you feel comfortable with. Below is a suggested process, but do not feel like you need to follow these steps:

  1. Initialize your project as a public repository on GitHub. Creating a repo will make it easier to share your code with the community if you need help.

  2. Configure your repository to publish your code to a web address. This will also be useful if you need some help during a challenge as you can share the URL for your project with your repo URL. There are a number of ways to do this, and we provide some recommendations below.

  3. Look through the designs to start planning out how you'll tackle the project. This step is crucial to help you think ahead for CSS classes to create reusable styles.

  4. Before adding any styles, structure your content with HTML. Writing your HTML first can help focus your attention on creating well-structured content.

  5. Write out the base styles for your project, including general content styles, such as font-family and font-size.

  6. Start adding styles to the top of the page and work down. Only move on to the next section once you're happy you've completed the area you're working on.

Deploying your project

As mentioned above, there are many ways to host your project for free. Our recommend hosts are:

Create a custom README.md

We strongly recommend overwriting this README.md with a custom one. We've provided a template inside the README-template.md file in this starter code.

The template provides a guide for what to add. A custom README will help you explain your project and reflect on your learnings. Please feel free to edit our template as much as you like.

Once you've added your information to the template, delete this file and rename the README-template.md file to README.md. That will make it show up as your repository's README file.

Submitting your solution

Submit your solution on the discord's #rookie channel.

Remember, if you're looking for feedback on your solution, be sure to ask questions when submitting it. The more specific and detailed you are with your questions, the higher the chance you'll get valuable feedback from the community.

Sharing your solution

There are multiple places you can share your solution:

  1. Share your solution page in the #finished-projects channel
  2. Share your solution on other social channels like LinkedIn.
  3. Blog about your experience building your project. Writing about your workflow, technical choices, and talking through your code is a brilliant way to reinforce what you've learned. Great platforms to write on are dev.to, Hashnode, and CodeNewbie.

Got feedback for us?

We love receiving feedback! We're always looking to improve our club and our community. So if you have anything you'd like to mention, please contact any manager.

Happy conding! 🚀
