Your first project is to create a Hobby Page. This can be about one of your hobbies, a particular interest of yours, or a public figure you admire. You are not required to make this about yourself or disclose anything personal. The page will be built with HTML, styled with CSS and use a bit of JavaScript.

Requirements

• The page has a title which informs the user what the site is about

• The page has a logical layout and clear structure

• There are images on the page, with where appropriate

• The page is visually interesting, for example with borders or colours

• A list is visible somewhere on the page

• A user can click on a link that takes them to another website

• The page has a header element, and a footer element

• Somewhere on the page, the user can see today's date. The date should always be correct. You'll need to use JavaScript to generate the date, and DOM manipulation to display it.

Documenting

We'd like to hear about what you created, and how you created it. For this project, you're required to include a README.md file. These are written in and give an overview of the project. You might like to include sections which follow the three headings above: planning; building; and debugging.

Getting started

• Setting up a web page

Sections of freeCodeCamp's curriculum used to be a part of our application requirements. The curriculum doesn't cover JavaScript and they estimate it as 300 hours of work in total. Although completing it is not required, it will give you a fantastic foundation in building websites.

Git

Git has a number of features available, and we're not expecting you to learn them all. During the application stage, we ask that you focus on learning to add, commit, and push your changes.

GitHub

• Understand the purpose of HTML, CSS and JavaScript

• Understand DOM Manipulation and what it can be used for

• Write documentation of completed projects in the form of a README

• Upload code to GitHub and deploy a website to GitHub Pages
