Step 1: Set Up Your Environment

Using Replit, create a new project/Repl using the HTML, CSS, JS environment template. To do this, click on the Create button and choose the HTML, CSS, JS button. If you don’t see that button, click on the + button and then choose HTML, CSS, JS.

Name this template something easy to remember like BrandNameLinks.
Step 2: Code Your HTML

Now, using the tags and attributes you learned about in the unit, code a simple list of at least six links related to yourself or the brand—things like their official website, Facebook page, YouTube page, etc. At the top, include a header with the brand’s name and an image to represent the brand.

Then, center-align the list by using the align attribute in the div tags. In this case, we would add a DIV with our list inside of it. Here is an example:

<div align="center"></div>

Step 3: Design With CSS

Now that the content and information are there, it’s time to get creative! Pick a color palette and apply CSS to the page to make it really stand out. Whether it’s a professional look or something more extravagant, put your CSS skills to the test and try to incorporate lots of design elements. Your design should include these things at minimum:

Adding a background color or background image
Setting a specific font and text/title colors
Turning links into buttons

For each item, leave a comment within your code explaining what it is doing. Once you’ve finished those items, feel free to get creative and try out some CSS and HTML tricks of your own!

Sure! Below is a simple implementation following your steps for creating a project in Replit with HTML, CSS, and JS. This project will include a header, an image, a list of links, and styled using CSS.

Step 1: Environment Setup

  1. Go to Replit and create a new project using the HTML, CSS, JS template.
  2. Name it BrandNameLinks.

Step 2: HTML Code

Create an HTML file (index.html) and add the following code:

<!DOCTYPE html>
<html lang="en">
<head>
    <meta charset="UTF-8">
    <meta name="viewport" content="width=device-width, initial-scale=1.0">
    <title>BrandNameLinks</title>
    <link rel="stylesheet" href="style.css">
</head>
<body>
    <div align="center">
        <h1>My Brand</h1>
        <img src="https://via.placeholder.com/150" alt="Brand Logo">
        <ul>
            <li><a href="https://www.officialwebsite.com">Official Website</a></li>
            <li><a href="https://www.facebook.com">Facebook</a></li>
            <li><a href="https://www.instagram.com">Instagram</a></li>
            <li><a href="https://www.twitter.com">Twitter</a></li>
            <li><a href="https://www.youtube.com">YouTube</a></li>
            <li><a href="https://www.linkedin.com">LinkedIn</a></li>
        </ul>
    </div>
</body>
</html>

Step 3: CSS Code

Create a CSS file (style.css) and add the style below:

/* Body background color */
body {
    background-color: #f0f8ff; /* Light blue background */
    font-family: Arial, sans-serif; /* Font type */
    color: #333; /* Text color */
}

/* Header styles */
h1 {
    color: #2c3e50; /* Dark blue color for header */
}

/* Image style */
img {
    border-radius: 10px; /* Rounded corners for the image */
}

/* List items styling */
ul {
    list-style-type: none; /* Remove default list styling */
    padding: 0; /* Remove padding */
}

/* Link styling */
a {
    text-decoration: none; /* Remove underline from links */
    color: white; /* Text color for buttons */
    background-color: #3498db; /* Button color */
    padding: 10px 15px; /* Padding around button */
    border-radius: 5px; /* Rounded corners for button */
    transition: background-color 0.3s; /* Smooth transition */
}

/* Hover effect for links */
a:hover {
    background-color: #2980b9; /* Darken button on hover */
}

Comments Explanation

  1. HTML:

    • The header <h1> displays the brand name.
    • An image placeholder represents the brand's logo.
    • A list of links to various social media platforms and the official website is created in an unordered list <ul>.
    • The <div> is center-aligned using the align attribute.

  2. CSS:

    • Body: Sets the background color and font properties for the entire page.
    • Header: Changes the text color of the header.
    • Image: Applies rounded corners to the image for a more appealing design.
    • List Styles: Removes default list styling and extra padding.
