Macon County needed a website that made its content easy to find and navigate. The challenge was taking a lot of information and organizing it in a way that actually made sense for a general audience, including sections like the Lost Towns of the region which deserved their own spotlight.
I designed and built the whole site from scratch. That means writing all the HTML, CSS, and JavaScript, using Bootstrap for responsive layout, and deploying everything live through FileZilla. This is the only fully coded project in my portfolio.
Organized all county content into logical site sections.
Built the HTML with semantic tags and accessibility in mind.
CSS and Bootstrap for responsive layout and visual hierarchy.
JavaScript for navigation and interactive components.
Published to a live server via FileZilla and tested across devices.

Building from scratch is a completely different experience than designing in Figma. You are responsible for every pixel, every link, and every line of code. This project gave me a real confidence boost as a developer and showed me how much UX thinking goes into decisions that look simple on the surface, like nav labels and page titles.
