Exercise 3: (Personal CV Page)
For our third exercise, Mr Shamsul
tasked us in designing and building a personal
CV
page using basic HTML and CSS. This exercise will help us
organise information into
sections, practice styling text and create a clean,
professional-looking page layout.
Instructions:
- Add your name as the main header at the top of the
page.
- Write a short paragraph describing yourself, your
interests, and any hobbies.
- List your most recent education details. Include the
institution name, year, and
course or program.
- Create a bulleted list of at least five skills you have
(these could be related to
school, hobbies, or any other talents).
- Add a simple contact section with an email address and
a link to any social media
profile (optional).
- Use different font sizes and weights to make sections
and headers stand out.
- Choose a basic color scheme for the text and
background. Use colors that are easy
to read and look professional.
- Add padding and margins around each section to give
your CV a clean, organized
layout.
- Use borders or horizontal lines to separate sections
for a professional touch.
- Add an image or profile picture at the top.
- Style your CV with a unique font and background color
or pattern to reflect your
personality.
- Create a folder for the task and include subfolder
(images) and the HTML file in
the folder.
- Create a single HTML file for the content. Name the
file as index.html
- Add the CSS rule within the head section
- Upload the folder to Netlify (I will show it in
class)
- Embed the link into your blog and submit the post in Google

Before starting my CV, I went to look for
inspiration on other CVs on Pinterest. The
main inspiration for my own CV are taken mainly from these
two.

I didn't want to just put the images for the adobe icons for technical skills, so I
challenged myself to make 4 rounded squares for each of the
app (Ps, Pr, Ae & Ai).

I wanted the icons to have 2 on each row but no matter what I did, it came out like this
so
eventually I just left it.
To make my image match the colour scheme of my CV, I went to Photoshop to edit it,

I wanted to have a favicon like every website for my submission, so I watched a
Youtube video on it.
