Coming Soon Website — Now live

PERSONAL PROJECT — 2015
My website is finally online - or at least the coming soon version of it.
Check it out: http://weinhardt-design.com

This site is a kind of placeholder for the actual portfolio site which I'll start working on soon.

Even though there isn't much content I still spent a lot of time coding this piece. I used middleman as the framework and Bootstrap as a base for components and the styling.
Many things happened behind the curtain and most of it was preparation for the actual portfolio site (SASS variables).
In addition I treated this personal project as if it's a commercial project I'm working on.
Project management in Trello with agile milestones and to-do's.
Pushing code into a Git repository.

I wanted to challenge myself and increase my frontend development knowledge by creating this website from scratch.

I started with various sketches and scribbled concepts.
With intent I skipped creating wireframes or hi-fi mockups (Sketch) since and jumped directly into the browser instead.
So I started building the basic html structure and layout with the help of Bootstrap components. By the time the styling was also done.
Et voila... a responsive handcrafted website.

Unfortunately I had some problems when I needed to compile the site using middleman's build feature but I managed to handle it somehow.
