WDS71 - Standard Website Layout(Part 3)

In the last two articles, we are creating a layout for the standard website by including various components we created while learning HTML and CSS. We have already added a header,  navigation bar and content with 3 rows which are not responsive. So let's start today with making it responsive...

Make it Responsive

If we see at our layout of the content, it always shows 3 columns side by side(Although not in Codepen as they add their own code to make it responsive). We will now write a piece of code that will change it to only one column on smaller devices.

@media (max-width: 1200px) {
    .column {
        width: 50%;
    }
}
@media (max-width: 600px) {
    .column {
        width: 100%;
    }
}

What will above code do? If the width of the browser window is less than 600 px, the width of each column is 100% so that only one column in each row. Similarly, if the width is less than 1200 px, the width of each column is 50% so that there will be two columns in each row.

Making Unequal Columns

It's easy now. Just set the right width for each column. We will set 25% width for left and right column and 50% for middle column. We are also using the concept of responsiveness and hiding left column when the width is 1200 px or smaller and hiding both side columns when the width is less than 600px.

Footer

Finally, let's add a footer to our website which will hold things like trademark and extra site links.

.footer{
  background-color: #F1E8E6;
  text-align: center;
  padding: 20px;
}

Here we are with our complete layout. Let's have a look...

That's all for today. We have completed our very own website layout. In the next article, let's see what to study...Not yet decided...
Till then #keepCoding

Python Project - 1 (Password Locker)

Hello reader, this is my first post on this blog. I created this blog for various purposes including First and most importantly improve my coding Help others to learn various concepts in programming  To complete my hobby of blogging So, I am starting various series simultaneously, hope I will able to continue them. In this " Python Project " series, I will create simple python projects and will give step by step procedure to do that. I think you should first try to complete code yourself, then if you get stuck anywhere, feel free to check steps, refer complete code or comment for more help. Let's begin... Idea and Need: You probably have accounts on many different websites. It is a bad habit to have the same password and it is difficult to remember all passwords. So it is a good idea to use "Password Manager Software". So why not create it yourself? So let's see what steps you should follow... Steps: We have to create a menu which has the

WDS85 - Animate the CSS(Part 3)

In the last two articles, we learned about animations in CSS and various ways to customize them with the help of iterations and animation delays. Now in today's article, we are going to learn more about them so that to customize them even more. Let's begin... Reverse Directions and Alternate Cycles The animation-direction property in CSS decides whether we want to play animation forward, backward or in alternate cycles. Following values are possible: normal - This is the default. Animation plays as normal(forward). reverse - The animation plays in reverse direction that is backward. alternate - The animation first plays forward and then backward. alternate-reverse - The animation first plays backward and then forward. Speed Curve of Animation Just like we used various ways to customize transitions in CSS some articles before, same functions can be used to change the speed of the animation. The animation-timing-function property specifies the speed curve o

WDS83 - Animate the CSS

In the last two articles, we learned about CSS transitions and created some pretty cool elements with transitions and transformations. Now in today's class, we are going to learn animations in CSS which creates animations without the use of javascript or flash. CSS Animations A CSS animation lets us change an element's style from one to another. We can change as many properties as we want. To use this CSS animations, we have to first specify some keyframe rules which include how and which properties are we changing. The @keyframes Rule When we specify CSS styles inside the  @keyframes rule, the animations will gradually change from current style to new style at certain times. To get these working, we must bind animations to an element. Let's understand more by an example... @keyframes myAnimation { from { background-color : blue ;} to { background-color : red ;} } div { width : 100px ; height : 100px ; background-color : b
