Each module you should produce something substantial that takes multiple weeks for your professional portfolio. This project starts fairly simply and gets more complicated as you iterate, which is how websites are built in real life too.
Unlike the wireframe projects, this project uses mockups. Mockups are pixel-finished pictures of how websites should look, and getting the look exactly right is the goal here, as well as maintaining correctness in your underlying code.

Mockups only ever show a few snapshots of pages, but websites must work at all the sizes in between. It's a challenge, but it's one everyone else faces too. How do they solve it? Research will help you, as will collaboration.
