Over the last couple weeks, we learned a few new tools. Parallax adds to the visual stylizing of a page. Bootstrap is a tool that gives shortcuts to html, and Sass is like CSS shortcuts.
I practiced Parallax by putting a background image on a page and creating an effect that allowed the main content to scroll over the background image. This was done based off an example from the project files. Under the CSS properties for ‘body’, a background image was fixed to the top center which allowed the next section to scroll over it.
Bootstrap is a front-end toolkit that uses Sass shortcuts to generate HTML segments like layouts. It’s a convenient method of shortcuts, but websites that use it are often easily identified. For practicing bootstrap I practiced putting in a nav bar, a grid, and columns.
