Blog: R6D58: #100DaysOfCode (More Posts)
Hello. It’s Day 58 of the 6th round of the 100 Days Of Code challenge that I’ve been doing.
It’s been a great way to start the new week. I’ve done a lot of work today preparing a couple of new projects.
First things first, it was time for my regular update to my Photography website, which went live around Midday today. As always, I invite you to check it out to see what’s new!
Building a Photo Viewer
It’s my photography website that inspired something new for me to do. With my photography, I wanted to make something where a user could open a single page app, and cycle through a set of photographs and learn something about the best mode settings to use for the setting of that photo, and that has the information available to view at a glance. So to say again, it would be a Photo viewer that shows you the image data used. And since I’m not aware of an app that does that (although I’m sure one exists, I decided to make one for myself.
The very first draft design of the photoviewer
This is the very first draft design. As you can see it’ll be a simple interface, which can easily be smartened up with CSS with plans to add JavaScript to pull the data via CSV or JSON and display the appropriate data for an image. It’d also be a good way to practice DOM Scripting skills with JavaScript. So that’s one exciting project I’m looking to finish off soon. It’ll be difficult but I’m sure it can be done.
Building yet another new WordPress theme for my portfolio
Secondly, I also look forward to developing a theme for.. well… my WordPress subdomain. Since I’ve already produced designs for my portfolio and my blog, I may as well use the same design for my WordPress work. This subdomain was always intended to be a place where I could experiment with the latest features of WordPress, even though I have now created several works that use the platform.
From my own point of view, it makes sense to have proper design behind it
I also think it’s important that this is the 3rd or even the 4th site that not only ises the platform but carries on the design. And since I’m carrying forward design ideas from my other domains, I’m almost finished preparing the markup and the themes’ static files.
I’m excited about these new works and can’t wait to further expand my design portfolio.
