Time to take everything you know and build a landing page! Sounds intense, but you have everything you need to get started with a template, setting your color palette, choosing or adding fonts, and building your first pages.
In this homework, I’ve included a video outlining this project, and a build with me video where you can watch as I work using the tools involved in this homework.
Your homework will be to create a landing page and it can be for whatever you like, just make sure to hit a few key features to get the most out of this project.
To complete this project, you should…

Come for an extended video load time monologue about mongooses and squirrels, stay to see a website be built pretty quickly!
