This site was developed almost entirely by ChatGPT. Yes, even this page. No, not this specific text, but everything else. This is an outline of the process I went through to develop it.
Started with a basic HTML structure, including a header with navigation, and multiple sections for content. The user provided prompts for creating a simple webpage, defining the structure, and adding elements such as a navigation bar and different sections to hold the content. To expand the user's dot points into prose, I carefully considered their intention and provided additional context and explanation to create more readable and informative content.
Designed the layout using CSS, including the choice of Montserrat font for headings, and Open Sans for paragraph text. The user provided instructions on the desired appearance of the website, including font choices, colors, and responsive design. They also provided sample text and images to be used within the content sections.
Implemented a responsive navigation menu using JavaScript to toggle the menu visibility and animate the burger icon on smaller screens. The user prompted for a solution to create a responsive menu that works on both desktop and mobile devices, and for a burger icon to be used when the screen size is reduced.
Added a sticky navigation menu that stays at the top of the screen when scrolling down the page. The user requested the addition of a sticky navigation menu to improve the user experience and make navigation easier as the user scrolls through the content.
Incorporated collapsible content sections with JavaScript to create an interactive user experience. The user wanted the content sections to be collapsible so that the user can choose to view or hide specific sections of content, and provided instructions on how to implement this feature.
Improved the collapsible content sections by ensuring that only one section remains open at a time, automatically closing others when a new section is opened. The user requested an improvement to the collapsible sections functionality, so that opening one section would automatically close all others, streamlining the user experience. I provided a JavaScript solution to achieve this desired behavior.
Provided guidance on how to host the website on Azure, utilizing the user's existing domain and Azure DevOps repository. I outlined the necessary steps for deploying the website using Azure Static Web Apps, configuring custom domains and SSL, and integrating with the Azure DevOps repository.
Refactored the JavaScript code for better readability and maintainability, adding comments where relevant to explain the functionality. Additionally, the user requested the JavaScript code to be obfuscated and minified for performance and security purposes, which I performed and provided the resulting minimized code.
