Section 5: Reflection
My experience using JavaScript and CSS libraries for this project is the following: At the beginning I was struggling to make sense of the possibilities of what I can create by using these libraries, I still have not grasped it.
This feels like being given the tools to create any sort of website you can think of and that itself can be intimidating. This project contains the most barebones examples of what can be accomplished with these libraries.
I am excited to see what I can create after having a better grasp on how to use these libraries properly. Therefore the biggest benefit of these libraries is being able to create the most engaging, visually appealing, and interactive website possible.
The biggest challenge for me was having to integrate each library in a different way; All of them have particular nuances to pay attention to which created lots of frustration in getting them to work properly.
It is worth mentioning that I will only get better through practice so that is what I am prepared to do. I am excited and a bit nervous using this newfound knowledge in the next assignment.
I do know however that it will be way cooler than what I created in the first semester. Only onwards and upwards from here!
