After having a GitHub account to watch other projects for a couple years now, I finally took the leap and began to use it as a code repository. I added my Gather project to the site and am updating changes using the terminal on my Mac. A wonderful side affect of using GitHub to store my code for this project is that I can now work on my desktop or laptop without having to keep transferring files back and forth. I wish I had done this earlier…

Journal
Goals:
- created first round of visual mockups from last week’s wireframes
- researched more possible companies to work for, defined my skill set better, and updated my résumé
- re-worked color scheme again on my prototype site and began to build out other pages like scan/map
- updated my social media presence on all of my accounts
Issues covered/Response from advisor:
- résumé should stand out but be organized enough to allow the reader to scan quickly
- still figuring out how to get icons to display properly on my prototype
- learned how to use GitHub to backup and track changes in my prototype
Goals for next week:
- round two of my visual mockups, polish them up and add interactions
- continue to tweak prototype visually until it looks as much like my mockups as possible, create a few product pages
- continue to research the skills companies are looking for in a Front End Web Developer or UI Designer
