Feisty Resumes

I put this together as a favour for a friend.

She’d built a mockup of the website she wanted with Wix, and asked if I could rebuild it in some way that it could be hosted for free.

The quickest path was just plain HTML and CSS and so that’s what I did, and while I was at it I tidied up the design a little and made it mobile-friendly. The HTML is simple enough that the owner will have no problem making edits to the HTML directly if she needs to.

It’s hosted on Netlify so she can get previews (or help from me if she’s stuck on something) if she opens a pull request with her changes, and as soon as she then merges it’ll go live.

This was the first time I tried Netlify Forms. I was very, very impressed. All I had to do to my mock form to get it completely functional was to name the <form> tag and add an attribute as a hint to Netlify.

No Javascript on this one at all, which is a breath of fresh air.

Shoutout to Hillary Burson, who designed the logo – looks great.
