INSTRUCTION



Exercises 1: Web Analysis
We are provided a website that has several other high-quality websites in this exercise, and we must pick two websites to analyze. We must pay attention to the analysis's design, layout, information, and functionality. Additionally, we must note the website's advantages and disadvantages and take into account how they affect the user experience.  For both analyses, we must write no more than 250 words.



Exercise 2: Website Replication
It is our responsibility to duplicate TWO (2) of the three websites' current home pages. Any picture from a stock photo or a free stock icon can be used. It is not necessary for the image we use to be an exact copy of the one from the source website. The arrangement, typeface, and color scheme ought to be our main concerns.

I'm using Acumin Variable Concept and Epilogue for the fonts. I went with medium, semibold, and bold for the typeface. In this exercise, I also utilized the pen tool to draw the logo.

Exercise 3: Creating a Recipe Card
In this exercise, we need to create a recipe card using HTML and CSS. The goal is to design a basic webpage that displays a recipe's ingredients and instructions in a visually appealing format.

Create an HTML file named "index.html."
Create a section that displays the following information:
Recipe title
Include necessary images for the page
List of ingredients
Step-by-step cooking instructions
Create an external CSS file named "style.css."
Apply CSS rules to style our recipe card.
Use CSS selectors such as element selectors (e.g., body, h1, ul), class selectors (e.g., .recipe-title, .ingredient-list), and ID selectors (e.g., #instructions) to style different parts of the card.

Progress:
