The most obvious limitation of the websites that I have made throughout the course is that I struggle with mobile-first design. I understood in theory why we were told that mobile-first design is better – because it’s easier to design a site for a smaller screen and then translate that into one for a larger screen than vice versa. However, I had to keep reminding myself to put that into practice. It was difficult to remember, mostly because I was coding on my laptop and the natural response was to code something that worked best on the device that I was coding on. So, I had to constantly remind myself to make my browser window the ‘xs’ size first in order to make sure the design was mobile-first and responsive. I do feel that my websites reflected this forgetfulness.
Another thing that I think I could have employed in my work is GIT, which was confusing for me at the time, but now that I have Ubuntu Terminal installed I will attempt to learn it once again.
