My Project

  • My website was created using Replit, a free platform for beginner web development.
  • In the process of working on this website I learned HTML, CSS, and JavaScript using resources my mentor pointed out to me like W3Schools, GeeksforGeeks, Khan Academy.
  • I also began getting familiar with the basics of SQL.

My Project

  • The link to my website: https://misthirajai.github.io/index.html
  • Some additional features I would love to explore if given the chance would be a database integration with my website using some of the new SQL skills I’ve picked up.
  • After completing the development of the website on Replit, I worked with my mentor to migrate the code to GitHub and to publish it to a GitHub Pages site linked to my very first Git repository. This allows the site to be publicly accessible and hosted on a free, open source platform that I can continue to update in the future!

  • I learned how to stay focused on what is required of me in the moment. I gained patience and became a time-conscious person.

  • Time-management has always been one of the biggest challenges for me. Moreover, due to the different time zones it could sometimes become difficult to communicate.
