Hi everyone, I’m Faizan, a Web Developer.
I want to share a little story and some lessons from my journey building my first full website.
The Challenge
When I started, I had an idea but didn’t know where to begin. There were so many options — HTML, CSS, JavaScript, frameworks — it was overwhelming at first.
What I Did
Picked a simple design I liked
Coded the layout using HTML and CSS
Added interactivity with JavaScript (menu, form validation)
Deployed it using GitHub Pages and Netlify
What I Learned
Start small; don’t aim for perfection on day one
Use open-source code snippets and adapt them to your needs
Write readable, maintainable code — it’s easier to debug later
Share your work publicly on GitHub and build your portfolio
Let’s Connect
I’d love to connect with other web developers, designers, and learners.
