A Seattle Seahawks fan page with my predictions for their 2017 season.

This project was part of my Intro to Programming Nanodegree at Udacity in early 2017 and my first contact with code. For that reason I was very proud of it, even though it looked painfully awful (as one would expect from a first-timer).
The idea was to make a website using the basics of HTML and CSS I had just learned. Back at the time I didn't know anything about Responsive Design or JavaScript, never heard of CSS Preprocessors or Template Engines and would probably have had a meltdown if I've heard anyone mentioning a cloud deployment.
One year later I've decided for a redesign and to use some of the technologies I've learned during this time so I would finally be able to show it to someone else without hurting their eyes.
So I've implemented the following:
- Complete Redesign - Fully redesign the website using a mobile-first approach
- Responsive Design - Automatically adapt to the device's screen size
- Sass/SCSS - CSS Preprocessor
- Express - Web Framework for Node.js
- Pug - Template Engine for Node.js
- Deployment to Heroku - Cloud Application Platform
I also tried to keep changes to the original content to a minimum, even though my predictions turned out to be terribly wrong.
