Coding Foundations Project Requirements

Demonstrate what you have learned about HTML and CSS by replicating the CodePen.io homepage using the screenshot below.
CodePen.io is a relatively simple webpage that combines a number of things you already know, such as working with images, creating buttons, and text fields.
You can use the Visual Studio Code as your text editor. It is free, lightweight, and easy to use. Otherwise, you can use any other text editor you prefer.

Include these elements

  • Navbar that includes "Pens, Projects, Posts, Collections, and Spark with a down chevron (does not need to actually dropdown).
  • Images - use available tools to recreate colors, etc.
  • Don't worry about replicating any functionality features such as drop-down, scrolling, etc. Simply replicate the landing page.

The output should look something like this:
large

Project sources

Image for right portion of page:

You can find the Codepen logo here.

  • Includes all required elements
