Below is your first coding assignment! It's due by end of day Monday, September 15.
***
Goal:
- Create a page describing an online manifesto in HTML5 alone.
Constraints:
- Don't use any CSS, or any tags that control appearance (we'll do this later).
- Your page should be contained in one html file.
- Your content should be suitable for use in a classroom context.
Content:
- We suggest that you use the Cluetrain Manifesto (wikipedia), but you are free to use any classroom appropriate manifesto you like.
- Many manifestos are too long for this assignment. Feel free to edit or summarize as you like to make this manageable, but ensure you fill at least one desktop screen.
Validation:
- Validate your page using the W3C Nu Markup Validation Service validator.w3.org/nu/. Address as many of the resulting warnings and errors as you can.
- Test your page on various browsers ("crossbrowser testing") using Browserling, Browsera, BrowserStack or SauceLabs — or any equivalent tool. These make it easy to see how a page is rendered in different browsers without actually running those browsers. Test at least half of the following browsers:
- Firefox for Windows
- Firefox for OS X
- Chrome for Windows
- Chrome for OS X
- Chrome for Android
- Internet Explorer for Windows
- Safari for OS X
- Safari for iOS
Deliverables:
- Using wolfware classic assignment "prog 1", submit the following as a single zip file by end of day Monday September 15:
- Your version of the homepage HTML5 source.
- A text file of 1-2 pages documenting the results of your validation including any remaining errors and warnings, and your summary of the results of crossbrowser testing.
- (Optional) post your impressions of the crossbrowser testing tool you used to our forum for extra credit.
Grading:
- 10% proper turn in
- 10% proper content
- 20% using html5 only
- 20% avoiding CSS and styling
- 20% good validation
- 20% good cross browser testing
