If you don’t know who the 3 Stooges are, please watch this video: http://files.granneman.com/videos/3-Stooges.mp4
Using your file manager (Finder on a Mac & File Explorer on Windows), not Brackets, navigate to the folder that holds all of your Web development projects (probably called Web Dev Projects if you followed my instructions on Pre-Chartreuse No. 1). Inside Web Dev Projects, create a new folder named stooges.
In other words, you should now have 2 projects/folders inside Web Dev Projects: colors & stooges.
Inside stooges, create a sub-folder named images.
Using your Web browser, download the following images & place them into the images folder:
Now open Visual Studio Code. Go to File > Open Folder… & navigate to the stooges folder. Select Open if you’re on a Mac & Select if you’re on a PC. You should now be in a new project in VSCode: stooges. Inside that project, you should see the images folder, which should contain 4 images. And that’s all that you should see at this point.
If you do not end up with a project called
stoogesinside VSCode, you messed up. Switch to theGetting Startedproject & delete the project you accidentally created, & then follow my instructions to create thestoogesproject in VSCode.
In the main stooges folder, create a file named index.html. Use a template to create the basic content for the webpage.
In index.html, place the following content:
- A
<title>of3 Stooges & Friends - A page title of
Stoogesusing<h1> - All 4 pictures of the Stooges, with each picture a clickable link to that particular stooge's page
- An
<hr>, followed by© [Year] [Your name], with[Your name]a hyperlink to your email address1
Create 4 more pages in thestooges folder:
larry.htmlmoe.htmlcurly.htmlshemp.html
On each of those pages, place the following content:
- A
<title>of3 Stooges & Friends: [Name of Stooge] - A small wayfinding menu that says
Home > [Name of Stooge], withHomelinked back to the home page (what element should go around this particular content?) - A page title of
[Name of Stooge]using<h1> - A picture of the appropriate named stooge at the top of the page, with his catch-phrase (figure it out!) as a caption
- A sub-title of
Visit the Other Stooges!using<h2> - Pictures of the other 3 stooges, with each picture a clickable link to that particular stooge's page
- An
<hr>, followed by© [Year] [Your name], with[Your name]a hyperlink to your email address
At this point, I should be able to click on each stooge & go from page to page to page to page, in a closed loop of eye-pokes, face-slaps, & hair-pulls.
