Landing Page Project

This project is a part of Udacity Front End Developer Nanodegree program. The code in this repository is meant to satisfy the project #1 rubric of the Front End Web Developer nano degree. A landing page is the conversion of a static page to a page that allows some sort of interaction. The dynamicity is achieved through javascript. and to show how javascript can improve the usability of an otherwise static site.

This is my first project, and I hope to be successful in using the tools that I learned to implement what is required of me in this project.

Open and view the Project using the .zip file provided or at my Github Repository.

The project is also hosted on Github.

Development

  • First challenge is to build the navbar dynamically based on the sections of the page. This can be achieved by using the below mentioned methods of javascript

    document.getElementById or querySelectorAll
    for or forEach loop
    document.createElement
    Link.innerHTML
    appendChild

  • Next step would be to add functionality to distinguish the section in view. This can be achieved by using the .getBoundingClientRect() method of javascript. Active states have to be added to the sections as well as the corresponding nav links.

  • Last part is to add the functionality to scroll to sections. This can be achieved by using the below mentioned methods of javascript

    scrollIntoView().

Features
