GRC 338: Assignments

Hello world

For the HTML/CSS assignments in this class, you’ll be publishing your work on GitHub pages.

This assignment will serve two purposes:

  1. You will learn how to publish your work on GitHub pages. (Follow the tutorial here.)

  2. I will have your GitHub account username, so you won’t need to submit your URL to Canvas every time. (More on this later; it’ll make more sense when you publish the next HTML assignment.)

Instructions

The assignment instructions are very simple, but it may take you a while if you have no experience with GitHub—which I believe is not the case for most of you. Either way, don’t worry, it’s not complicated, just follow the steps on the tutorial.

  1. Grab the following code:

    <!doctype html>  
    <html>  
        <head>  
                <meta charset="UTF-8" />  
                <meta name="viewport" content="width=device-width, initial-scale=1" />  
                <meta http-equiv="Cache-Control" content="no-cache, no-store, must-revalidate" />  
                <meta http-equiv="Pragma" content="no-cache" />  
                <meta http-equiv="Expires" content="0" />  
                <title>GRC 338: Hello world assignment</title>  
        </head>  
        <body>  
            <h1>Hello world</h1>  
        </body>  
    </html>
    
  2. Publish it on the URL username.github.io/grc338/helloworld, where username will be your actual GitHub username. (Again, it’s all on the tutorial.)

  3. Submit your full URL to Canvas.
