Hackathon: Day 3 - Bootstrap 4

Mar showed us how we can use bootstrap to make a website layout using a grid system.

Bootstrap's 5 classes:

col- (extra small devices - screen width less than 576px)
col-sm- (small devices - screen width equal to or greater than 576px)
col-md- (medium devices - screen width equal to or greater than 768px)
col-lg- (large devices - screen width equal to or greater than 992px)
col-xl- (xlarge devices - screen width equal to or greater than 1200px)
(W3Schools.com, 2018)

These commands allow us to easily design a website for multiple screen sizes and devices.

We played around with Layoutit! which is a grid editing tool for Bootstrap.
It allows you to drag and drop components to create a web page and once completed you can download the HTML, CSS and Javascript that was used in creating the page.

We played around with Bootstrap and attempted to use the bootstrap grid system ourselves in Atom.

My webpage changes when the webpage is re-sized due to the "col-6 col-sm-9" and "col-sm-3" classes. 


I edited elements of an already-existing theme on Epic Bootstrap, which was really easy to use.
This could then be downloaded as CSS and/or you are able to download the SCSS variables.

[Research] Traditional Poster Design (4CTA1214)

Image
As you can see from the superman poster, there are only four main colours used which includes red, blue, yellow and brown. All elements are filled in with block colours with no shading which was a common colour theme for traditional posters of this kind. This poster may have been used to advertise a new Superman comic or movie depending on the year it was created. The expression on the characters face fits the title shown on the poster explaining that he is returning. This poster advertised Coca Cola, and looks as though this specific poster was used in the USA - due to the currency used. The whole aim of the poster is to incorporate this drink into working peoples daily lives. This is seen by the slogan, 'Work refreshed' and the small graphics on the bottom right of the poster. Displayed is a man working in a factory environment and a lady is working in an office environment both drinking cola during their breaks - to feel refreshed. In some ways the bottle and
