Hi,
I recently finished the capstone project for the ‘Build a Website with Github’ course and I decided to post my Github Pages link here for feedback.
I combined elements of CSS Grid and Flexbox to accomplish the structure of the website, and I used hover states to achieve the change in background colour when hovering over some elements.
I chose the colour scheme “yellow on purple” because I felt they contrasted really well with each other and I used a mostly off-colour palette so it wasn’t too bright for some viewers with poor eyesight or viewing in a room with low lighting.
I decided not to add the code for mobile deployment as I’m not very confident with how to use that. I’m considering taking a specialized course for that.

Your work is nice, creative, and motivating.
Please how do I host a page on Github and share the link as you did?
this is my Github URL OIlmania-Iloma (Oilmania) · GitHub.
I’ll love to learn from you 
Hi,
there is a course on Codecademy that covers this actually. If you have a membership, it is accessible through this Pro Skill Path: https://www.codecademy.com/learn/paths/learn-how-to-build-websites.
If you don’t, it’s very simple. You just have to:
- Go to the repository you want to host on a Github Page.
- Go to Settings
- Select Pages
- Go to Source and select the branch you want to host (usually ‘Main’)
- Click ‘Save’
After that, the page should provide a link that you can use to view your page. If you update your work and try to view your page, there is a chance you will not see any change. This is just because the Page has not applied your changes yet. Wait 5 mins then refresh the page, you should see your changes.
If you want to edit the page and see you changes quicker, I would recommend downloading your repository file to your PC, and then opening your index.html file in a web browser. When you make changes to the code and refresh the page with way, you should see the changes instantly upon refresh.
Hope this helps you. Good luck
