How would you rate the site's design, on a scale of 1(horrible) to 10 (fantastic)? Why?
The site's design is very plain colorwise because of the black and white. The text wasn't bunched up and it didn't hurt the eyes when reading through it which is a good thing. The header was nicely placed and the animated background in the header added a nice touch. The important parts of the website were underlined or bolded and it helped make it stand out. On a scale of 1-10, I would give this site a solid 7.
How would you rate the site's usability on a scale of 1 (horrible) to 10 (fantastic)? Why?
The search bar on the home page was right in the middle where it can be easily found. It was also found at the top of the site opposite of the other navigation links. Having them inside the header made them really pop out. On a scale of 1-10, I would give the site's usability a 10. I really liked how easy it was to differentiate the clickable links.
Does the site meet its purpose?
The main purpose of this website is to be a resource for web developers so that they can find all the guides needed in order to complete their web pages or projects. After going through the site, there were tons of helpful information that I found that were listed about HTML, CSS, and Javascript. As I work through my projects and reviews, I believe this site will be very beneficial to me because I can use it to understand the concepts of these topics even more.
