Link for Constable

Link for Constable was the first major project assigned by the teachers at the Awesome Inc Bootcamp. The objective of the project was to create a website introducing the public to your fictional candidate for Constable. The website should explain why your candidate was running for Constable. The teachers also requested that we include a sass file that gets converted to a css file.

For this all day project, I decided to pick Link from the Legend of Zelda gaming series to run for Constable since in his games he fights the forces of evil. As for the technical requirements, I looked at previous class examples to figure out how to convert sass into css. To convert sass into css, I created a package.json file and wrote a script that would watch my sass file and covert it into a css file. I also included some other scripts that helped me see my styling updates as soon as I saved my project. This made it easier to view my changes. In my sass file, I chose to change the bootstrap colors to green and gold theme to better reflect the Legend of Zelda color scheme. I also decided to incorporate a third party font to continue with the theme of Legend of Zelda.

Conclusion

I enjoyed being able to create something silly in effort to test what I had learned. I also enjoyed having time to incorporate things that wasn't taught in class, such as adding third party font in the project. This really helped me to not be afraid of trying something new in a time restricted project.
