Scenario

In a project for a mock company 'Incredibly Obvious Technologies', a small Perth-based start-up, I engaged in a skill-enhancing exercise designed to mirror real-world challenges. The project unfolded in five stages, beginning with the creation of foundational content using semantic HTML. This was followed by the application of CSS for effective layout design and the strategic placement of relevant images. The final phase of the project focused on utilizing JavaScript to solve a specific problem, thereby demonstrating the practical application of my developing technical skills.
