![]() ![]() Most of these applications will need the code to be refactored and tweaked to make them more readable and to eliminate needless repetition and some refactoring will involve better, less resource-heavy, methods. Then the more you know, the more you realize you don't know and so, the real journey begins once you've gained some rudimentary skills. At the beginning you don't know what you don'w know. But that's probably par for the course in any learning curve. Turns out that this web development game is much more in-depth than I ever imagined. The whole purpose of all these projects was to have a portfolio of applications to show the skills I've developed. My main task at the moment is to start fleshing out a website while also honing my skills at building different kinds of webpages. There are about 30 applications here, some are revisions or initial versions. But I think I'll post this as the main page and then gradually update it. This isn't complete as there are other apps in the pipeline. This is the main page linking to all category of applications I've been working on over the past year, and includes single applications worked on more recently. It's especially useful for uploading images to platforms that have very specific requirements for thumbnail sizes (LinkedIn Features has this where they have uncommon 'width x height' thumbnail image dimensions, so in the early days of adding features this app was very useful. There are other open source image editors that do this, but this was a good learning less on how to get new image dimensions and to format it into a user friendly program. So, outside of CSS the app was quite useful anyway. This actually can be achieved easily with CSS, but I just didn't realize it at the time.īut this app also came in handy when I wanted to resize images for thumbnails on LinkedIn and on YouTube. So if you input 400 into the 'new width' filed, and click get height, it will show you the new dimensions of the image having a width of 400 pixels, which will be somewhat smaller than the original. If you get the height value wrong the image will appear skewed. ![]() If you needed to fit your image into a box that had a width of 400 pixels, then you would need to also reduce the height proportionally, so that when the image is rendered it looks correct. Let's say you have an image of dimensions 435 x 723 (W x H). Essentially the app takes an image, shows you its dimentions, width x length, and then, if you put a new height or new length in one of the inputs, it will give you an output of what the new image dimensions should be. Admittedly at the time I didn't understand that there were several ways of handling images using CSS, so I decided to create this app. This application grew out of a bit of frustration with image elements I wanted to have on web pages.
