"The most difficult front end development project I've worked on was creating a website centred around a teaser version of the client's game. They wanted to use the website as a way to advertise their new app and wanted to include a small, playable version of their game. My team created the code for the game, but inputting it and ensuring it worked and looked good was challenging as I've never worked with games before."

"Creating websites that are user-friendly and accessible is extremely important to me as I want everyone to be able to enjoy my work. If the client agrees to it, I will add alt text to images so screen readers can describe the picture to those with visual impairments. Similarly, I'll create websites that allow users to enlarge or minimize the font to make it easier to read. I test my web applications on various browsers and devices to check how easy it is to use as well."

"In my previous role, I used HTML, JavaScript, Coffee Script, CSS, SQL, and PHP. I prefer Coffee Script over JavaScript, so that is where most of my experience lies. However, I am proficient with HTML and CSS as well. I'm happy to learn any other coding language you prefer or further develop my current knowledge."

"Front end developers work closely with back end developers to create a visually appealing, cohesive website. They ensure a website looks good but also functions properly by utilizing their team's code. Front end developers should have an in-depth understanding of coding languages and design aspects to create a well-balanced website."

"I keep updated with industry trends, news, and techniques by reading industry magazines. Some of my favourite web design magazines are Creative Bloq and Smashing Magazine. I also enjoy web development magazines, such as Noupe Magazine and Sprye Studios. I read an article or two a day with my breakfast to stay up-to-date."

"My favourite type of front end development project is developing websites for nonprofits. Nonprofit organisations already do so much to help our community that I enjoy being able to help them."

"My greatest skill as a front end developer is my in-depth knowledge of different coding languages. I'm an expert in JavaScript, CSS, and HTML after years of schooling. Knowing all three coding languages helps me adapt to different work environments and meet different clients' needs. It also helps me create the best website possible."

"I make all of my code as simple and organised as possible to make it easy for my colleagues to follow. I also use comments throughout the code to make it easier to change. I avoid deep nesting when possible and group my code to limit line length and disorganisation. I also create a style sheet for every project for my team to follow along with. Ensuring my code is easy to understand makes working as a team much easier."

"Meta tags within an HTML document give information about the webpage. Meta tags don't appear on the website but search engines and browsers use them to help people find the website or navigate the webpage. Meta tags typically consist of data about the document's title, author, description, keywords, or character set."

"To limit errors in my work, I double and triple check everything in my code to make sure it's clean and functional. I test the code as well by launching the website on different browsers and platforms to ensure there are no functional errors. This allows me to check if I dislike any of the design aspects as well."

"A colleague was unhappy with the font I used on one of my websites as it didn't match the client's notes. I missed the note about the font type the client wanted and changed it immediately. I was glad my colleague caught the error before we submitted the website to the client. I now double check every clients' notes before submitting any work."

"I start by designing the mobile version of the website as that is how most people access the internet nowadays, through a phone or tablet. Mobile websites also tend to be easier to design as there is less space to fill. I will then reuse whatever design aspects or coding I can and create the desktop website. I focus on the different user interactions between the two platforms as aspects like dropdown menus or online forms will be different for desktop and mobile."

"Inputting a CSS float into your code tells the browser to put an element, such as a picture or text, to the right side or left side of the container. This allows other text or elements to wrap around it. This can be a design choice. For example, when a client wants to include a picture on the left side of their webpage and the text flow around it. It can also be functional as you can use CSS floats on web pages that dynamically resize based on the user's resolution."

"User-centred design is a process that web developers use to focus on the client's needs, requirements, and customer base. Through every aspect of the design process, the front end developer will focus on what the user of that website needs. User-centred design requires a lot of research to work but is very beneficial. It often creates a more successful website with more organic traffic as the developer makes it with the user in mind."

"When explaining my development process to non-technical clients or colleagues, I use simple language. This means I leave out industry terms and acronyms to avoid confusion. I also have a visual portfolio with past projects to show clients if they don't understand a certain development aspect. Having a visual to show usually helps people better understand the process. I make myself readily available to answer questions as well, either over e-mail or phone to clear up any confusion."
