Hello! Recently I completed the Responsive Web Design Certification on freeCodeCamp and on this post I want to show you the projects I built, as we...

These are great! Honestly. But, since you want some feedback, here are some of my thoughts on each project:
#1 Tribute page
#2 Survey form
#3 Product landing page
#4 Technical Documentation Page
#5 Personal Portfolio
General thoughts
I like the fact that you took the time to reflect on what you've learned while making theses. I also like the fact that you went out of your way to make this post to ask for feedbacks. I think these are great ways to improve. Keep it up! 👍
Wow, thank you so much for taking the time to write a comment about each one of the projects, I really appreciate it.
Also, thank you for the feedback, I definitely need to work on making them more interactive, that's why I'm very excited to learn JavaScript and be more creative.
PD: The documentation page is also my favorite one 😅
Color theme in the second project is just astounding.
Hi Maru, you have done some awesome work. Especially your projects 3 and 4 are really well designed. I am also doing FCC responsive web design course (currently on module 3) hoping to make cool projects like yours.
You can bro!
😁
Hi! Thanks a lot, good luck with your certification. Once you build your projects I would love to check them too 🤓
Thanks. Yeah sure, as I am inspired by you I will post about it here😊
Cool! Sonos todos muy bien hacidos!
Se puedo permitirme pienso que deberia hacer sitios mas interactivos. Por ejemplo el portfolio podria tener mas :hover effect quando el user pasa su mouse sobre los elementos (como el logo - cambio de color, Maru - la linea que se mueve, los dos botones que ce animan, con una inversion de colores por ejemplo...)
Estoy de acuerdo! Es algo que debo añadir para que sea más interactivo.
Gracias por su comentario :)
Así que te aconsejo que no lo pongas en codepen sino que lo hace "hostar" (no sabe come ce dice en espanol).
Another thing to notice reviewing the various links.
El segundo, "survey form", no te pone de ninguna parte quando selectiona el link. Pienso che serie mejor que simplemente pone un mensaje "Es un test, los datos no son registrados" o que hace una pequena animation y que anula el href con un prevent default. Si quiere he escrito un articolo sobre esto.

Gracias por la observación, es cierto. No sabía cómo arreglar eso así que veré el artículo 🤓
Saludos!
No dudes en preguntar si tienes algunas preguntas.
To start off I would say that for an aspiring web developer you did a great job overall on all 5 projects you showed here.
They all have a pleasant look, great colors, they're easy to navigate and they seem to adapt well on mobile 👍.
More in depth:
#1. Tribute page
I like the B/W choice here, it gives that feel of history (very personal opinion though), it is very well summarized and moreover there's a link to a more in depth article at the bottom for those who want to learn more about the topic.
I would have personally fixed the navigation bar at the top, like you did for your 3rd project, and maybe increased the font by a couple pixels.
#2. Survey page
Like others that left a feedback I don't have much to say about this project, it is very well put together, nice colors, easy to understand and heck it even has required fields checks. It is good looking on mobile too 📱.
If I really must point something out is that I did a quick test for accessibility and it showed for example some of the colors you have chosen as foreground did not pass the WCAG (Web Content Accessibility Guidelines) for the color ratio with the background they have. I did't go in depth on it but I guess it was the gray color of the placeholder text for the input fields that is too light, which usually it is like that by default so I'm not sure.
And please, please, please, take it as an advice for the future not a critique or something you did bad, I just think it is important to be aware of accessibility and to adopt it at the beginning of each and every new project.
#3. Product landing page
Again wow, I would buy for sure a product with a landing page like this one.
It goes Straight to the point, it is easy to understand and summarize the key values of the product.
Here I would have personally collapsed the navigation bar as an hamburger menu on mobile.
#4. Technical documentation page
I love the initial page that's supposed to give a quick hint on what the documentation is about. Like all your projects it is nicely done and well put together.
Within this project I would collapse the buttons into images, like twitter, or again create some sort of hamburger menu on mobile because you can see the text struggling to stay within the menu boundaries, especially with small screens. Might also add smooth scrolling effect when clicking the "Getting started" button, I think it would be a nice added bonus.
Also I would have some lines between each topic to visually have a break between them, for example like this one:
#5. Personal portfolio page
I will just say that it is well balanced. Not much text, only the essential information is shown for each section of the page and some external links to other personal profiles are provided for those who are interested.
Again I would implement some collapsed menu for the mobile but here I want to say that's just a personal preference because even on small screens it fits very well and it is pleasant to see.
If you plan to use this as your portfolio, I would suggest you to implement a contact form instead of directly displaying your information on the page. I think it is a better solution that adds a privacy layer, even if a little one, between you and anyone who contacts you for the first time. I saw you're still intensively learning javascript so there's time for this last tip and I'm sure you already took it in account.
⚠️ Of course I can't stress this enough, my feedback is purely made of tips and/or improvements that might be useful to you and by all means are not meant to diminish your work and/or to correct it in any way using either the "I'm right, you're wrong" or the "I'm more experienced so I'm right" mindset.
Keep up the great work you're doing and don't stop learning, it is a wonderful thing.
I can't tell you how much I appreciate the fact that you took the time to write recommendations about each one.
About the second project, thank you for pointing out the issue with the color ratio, it is something that does concern me, in the future I really want to make sure my websites are accessible for everyone.
I really wish at that time I knew how to make a hamburger menu because I totally agree it would have looked better (I'm learning how to do it now).
I assure you I will take all of your recommendations into account as I continue to learn more and slowly add improvements to the projects 😊
Oh I love it <3 They are all so cute <3 Sigue practicando!! Mis primeros proyectos fueron también con free code camp y aprendí un montón! Mi tip por ahora es inspirate mucho en otros sitios por ahora en interacciones, dise'o y ve que cosas te atraen mas. Esperoe estes increible y suerte en tu journey!
Muchas gracias! Me parece un muy buen consejo 😊 definitivamente es algo que haré. Saludos!
I like your projects, I completed the fcc web section but not the last couple projects. Your projects compared to my very minimal gray colored flat but "passing" projects really show how each project can vary by whomever makes them. These look very polished on the front end.
How long have u been coding Maru?
I've been studying on my own for almost a year, I wandered a lot (going from one course to another) because I couldn't decide on a "path". However, this was my first time actually building projects, each one took me a week approximately
They say the best way to learn is too build. I am 2 months in and i have built a few projects to practice as well
Totally! It also helps you determine your path, if you enjoy what you're building it means you're on the right track :)
I would love to check your projects too
I want to put them on codepen but they are not responsive yet. Do u have code sandbox?
I think it looks good. The colors and other aesthetics are very nice and inviting, if that makes any sense. Also, the layout of everything is pretty good, not distracting, and not boring at the same time. Lastly, its better than anything I can do.
Thank you for taking a look at them! I'm sure you can do a good job too, just try it! At first, I was very scared but you learn a lot in the process.
this is great. Keep it up
Thank you! 🤓
That's some cool stuff with programming 🔥🔥
Cool.
I feel you spent a proper amount of time deciding colors. I bring you a tip on choosing black - prepressure.com/design/basics/rich...
Also brown isn't a real color - it's dark orange depending on the surrounding light intensity.
Thank you for the tips!
Wow! That's a lot of projects you've got there.
I really like the first one, the Tribute Page as Grace Hopper inspires me to code.
And I really enjoy your color combinations, they're just artistic.
Couldn't have done it better myself.
Good job!
Thanks a lot! And yes, Grace Hopper is a big inspiration for me as well 💪
Good content!!
Great ♥️
You did a great job!! Loved the color combination and how things are simple at rich at the same time. Keep it up 💪
Your projects are extra beautiful, No dought! Keep it up ;)
Thank you! I appreciate it 🤓
La verdad es que cada uno tiene un buen diseño, Buen trabajo.
Muchas gracias 🙌
You are creative. I remember last year I was making these projects. I merely copied the code so many times.
Bonitos diseños!!
Sigue adelante Maru 😊
Gracias! 😄
