Welcome to this years HTML challenge for Hacktoberfest (What is Hacktoberfest?) A project with beginners and aspiring developers in mind, utilizing HTML, CSS & maybe a dash of JavaScript to achieve a simplistic yet elegant website for the greatest start up of all time; Keiko Corp.
Everyone is encouraged to participate, regardless of your skill level. This is a practice project and should be considered a playground. This project has plenty of options for collaboration, here are just a few of the many that we welcome pull requests for:
- HTML elements
- CSS styling
- Images
- Text/Copy
- Documentation
- Fix Typos, Code Bugs or Accessibility oversights
Incredibly, Bruno the CEO of Keiko Corp has built the fastest growing tech start up in Silicon Valley, without ever having launched a website. Bruno's marketing team are insisting they need a website in order to gain the confidence of the potential clients to reach this quarters sales targets.
Bruno has put together a quick Froala mockup to demonstrate the layout and simplistic design they are looking for. Although Bruno did request the website be as immaculate and as impressive as his hair, the design is totally open to interpretation and modification during the first iteration of development.
Ok, so you have read the brief and checked out the designs. Ready to contribute, but not sure how or where to start?
