What did you do well?
I feel I prepared my wireframes well to be able to code everything within the brand, to follow my own guidelines I set out. To have a seamless design and great flow to the website. I do feel I should have added real content to keep myself more organized.
What did you do poorly?
I feel I could have coded my patter library more efficiently and in a timely manner. I admit I did drag behind, however for good reason. And I should have had real content prepared before coding to make sure my content will be able to fit the way I intended.
What could be improved?
I feel like my case study (view wire frames) could be more intricate, however a simple look to focus the user on the project I will show may be better in the end.
What problems did you run into?
I ran into some grid issues, with my navigation getting it to line up properly and be responsive. I also struggles on the grid of my connection section, and making sure I had all the sections I would need coded out.
What complications did you overcome?
I overcame the challenge of the navigation and coded it to be responsive after some hard work and problem solving, I managed to code it the way it should look based off my wire frames. I also managed to get the majority of my content out on my sections with real images.
Does the website communicate the right message?
I feel like it does communicated the right message design and looks wise, I feel that I could have written more as far as voice goes.
Is the website usable?
Once I get to the actual usable live pages, I would say yes, I have enough to be able to code the website without having to write much more code.
