The purpose for this website is to fill the need for a single, online location where I can upload personal projects for public display. My site functions as both a project showcase and online portfolio. Having a single location for a project showcase is immensely useful as I can easily convey my hobbies, technical ability, and project accomplishments within a single website sitting. It will start small, with only 2-3 personal projects uploaded, but over time I hope to add on to the site as I learn and complete more projects. The site itself will also function as an example of my ability in HTML+CSS+JAVASCRIPT.
This personal website is a solo project, as I am the only member. My roles were to design, detail, and write the site.
The target audiences for this project are potential job recruiters and myself Potential job recruiters: This target audience is any party who may have an interest in judging my work for technical ability. The site functions as a portfolio as well as practical resume. This isn't exclusive to job recruiters. I could use this site when applying toward the CSS major. I plan to mostly have completed java applets embedded into the site, potentially with code snippets to accompany it. Myself: Having a single location where my finished projects are located is useful to me because I can easily see my completed projects over a long time span, as well as track my improvement over time. This is a significant practical benefit, as without this site, I’d have to preserve all my files on my home computer or download them off an online repository to view a working copy.
