Mother of twins trying to build a new career for herself in design and Webflow. Starting from scratch. #buildinginpublic #learninginpublic
I had a little trouble with the layout in my hero section in #webflow because I was using Flexbox on the wrong container. I added a new div block for my left and right div blocks that allowed me to use Flexbox correctly and, after a few nights of struggles. It is looking good!

Not looking too dissimilar now.

Off to a better start but still only managing around an hour. This #twinmum is just too sleepy to concentrate for a long time.

Proud to say that I was able to round the button and add padding without the step-by-step guide :)

A very simple start to building in #webflow this evening as I am exhausted. I added my first section, added a container for my H1, paragraph and buttons

Then, I played around with padding and margins got a feel for simple responsiveness. Looking very simple.

My task was to create my first home page.

It was a walk-through with an example site to inspire me. I chose my own colour palette and images.

I built it with assistance, but now I will pass from #Figma to make it in #webflow

So far, so good. (I had to use a similar font as the Figma example on the left has a paid font)

Fun fun fun

Today's task was to create a mood board to get some inspiration for a ride-sharing app design.

Here is the mood board I created.

To finish the night off on a positive. I am quite proud of how this one turned out. My mini project on creating tension.

I was given plain text and the image to use. It was fun seeing how much tension can be created as you tweak.

Autumn days.

The only babies out playing this morning. Not many babies around where we live in southern Italy venture out in the cold 😂

It was cold but the sun was glorious.

This task wasn't easy for me.

Fine-tuning colours... Task was

Keep the original colour palette from the previous task - Don't change the Hue.

Play with brightness
and saturation to lift and fine-tune the colours.

A mini project was to choose a typeface that suited the title given and give a reason. Here is what I came up with:

I had to ask myself 3 questions:

What is this website about?
What am I going to get out of this website?
How do I get it?

Here is a before and after to show what I came up with. It was fun to see the change in feeling

Any feedback is always welcome.

I created my first simple #wireframe using the grid that I created this morning. #figma seemed a little overwhelming at first but I am learning as I go. #learninginpublic #nocode

A very ugly first site on #webflow on my new #nocode journey. Don't worry! It was just a teaser, now I am off to start the fundamentals of design and have fun with #figma #learninginpublic #buildinginpublic
