Have you ever been nervous about handing your child over to someone to look after especially when your child has medical needs and suffers from severe allergies and skin conditions?

Are you getting lots of phone calls and messages about whether it's ok for your child to take part in certain activities or eat certain foods?

What if your child has an allergic reaction and you're not around to care for them... Where and How do you relay all this important information?

The Little Ones Manual is an example of how to put all this information together so everyone is on the same page about looking after your little one. Instead writing down all the information about what to do on paper, text messages and phone calls you can use the Little Ones Manual to keep it all in once place.

Next time you get a phone call or text message, you can easily refer them to your little ones manual and finally be able to answer all those repetitive questions you keep getting asked!

Thank you for visiting my project!

You can view the live website HERE

• The website has to work well on all kind of devices like mobile phones, tables and desktops.
• The website has to be easy to use and quick access to information
• Visually appealing website

• As a user, I would like to get information on following the daily skincare routine in order to maintain consistency.
• As a user, I would like to quickly find out what foods are safe to give the little one.
• As a user, I want ideas on meals I can make because of allergies.
• As a user, I would like to gain a quick understanding of how to look after severe eczema and manage flare ups.

• To make sure everybody is on the same page so we can avoid extreme skin reactions.

These wireframes were created using Balsamiq during the Scope Plane part of the design and planning process for this project. I have decided to go for a 1 page website to make it easier to access information quickly.

You can find my wireframes below:

• Merriweather as the headline text and Special Elite as body text. I particularly like the vintage typewriter look for the body

• coffee stains and parchment paper

• Vintage, Parchment paper and coffee stains look.

For the navbar I have used Boostrap to create a responsive navbar. There is a hamburger icon for mobile devices to make it more user-friendly. I have implemented the scroll spy option from bootstrap to help the user navigate easily to each section of the page. For this to work properly I have fixed the navbar on the top of the page. I have also added a JavaScript function to collapse the hamburger bar once a selection has been made for better user experience on a smaller device. The navigation bar features a logo on the far left, which links to the home page of the site.

I have decided to add 3 main section cards with buttons which spreads over 100% width of the screen. The 3 buttons link to the corresponding sections on the webpage The cards respond well when viewing on desktop, tablet and mobile.

Here I used the grid from bootstrap to create 5 different lists to make it easier to read the information quickly and easily.

Here I also worked with the grid from bootstrap to create a different set of lists which interact with the user when hovering over the food items. I have removed the effect on hover that gives the user the impression that it's clickable in order to avoid confusion. I have also styled the food groups into different colours to make it easier to quickly identify them.

I have purposely left this background colour the same as the safe foods section to demonstrate they both fall under the diet part of the webpage. This makes the information more easy to understand. Initially there was a hover effect on the meal plan but this has been taken out as it became an unneccessary distraction for the user. The striped rows on their own make the meal plan more legible and quick to grasp the information.

Here I have used flexbox from bootstrap to create the 3 sections so they are mobile responsive.

• search bar
• contact form
• downloadable allergy tests
• users to easily contribute to and update content

• Git to handle version control.
• GitHub to store and share all project code remotely.
• Imgbb to store external images for this project that were not entered into the database.
• Balsamiq to create the wireframes for this project.
• Google Docs excel to create sample tables with data.

• Bootstrap to simplify the structure of the website and make the website responsive easily.
• FontAwesome to provide icons for the website.
• Google Fonts to style the website fonts.
• Canva to design elements for the website.

• This project uses HTML, CSS and JavaScript programming languages.

• Plan
  My plan is to create a skincare section that highlights the problem areas on the skin to watch out for. I would also like to include daily routines for maintenance and managing flare ups.

• Implementation
  I added a nav bar with scroll spy to quickly move to various sections and a JavaScript fucntion to collapse the menu on smaller devices after a selection has been made. I also added 3 main cards with buttons on the top section of home page which provide the same function of scrolling quickly to the desired section. I added a image background to distinguish this section from the others and grouped the treatments and daily care into different list groups with short notes for extra information.

• Test I clicked on the skincare "lets go" button on the home page and it scrolls down to the correct section. I noticed it wasn't always clear where the user was on the nav bar, so I added a highlight to display the active menu section. This helps the user understand where they are in the site. I clicked on the skincare menu item in the nav bar and it scrolls down to the correct section.

• Result Skincare section is displaying as planned and the links work well. Tested this section on various browsers and devices and it is reponsive and user friendly. Adding the highlights to the nav bar menu improved the user experience.

• Verdict
  The test has passed all the criteria and works like planned.

• Plan
  I want to create a section on the website that lists all the current foods that are safe for the little one to eat. I will divide the foods into different groups to make it easy for the user to quickly read and find the information. My first plan was to have different pages for each section but I soon realised this would make it more cumbersome for the user to click through each page.Therefore after creating a one-page site the user can easily click on a button to quickly scroll down to the required sections. This way the user can quickly get to information much faster and with ease.

• Implementation
  Food items are highlighted on mouse hover for User Interaction.

• Test
  I clicked on the safe foods "lets go" button and it scrolls down to the correct section. On the nav bar I clicked on "Diet" and selected "safe foods" and it scrolls down to the correct section. I also tested to make sure the food groups collapse and are responsive on smaller devices.

• Result
  Safe foods section is displaying as planned and the links work well. Tested this section on various browsers and devices and it is reponsive and user friendly. Adding the highlights to the foods list improved the user experience.

• Verdict The test has passed all the criteria and works like planned.

• Plan
  My plan is to create a sample menu plan with some simple meal ideas to spark some imagination. I would also like it to be responsive for smaller devices.

• Implementation
  I originally created this using bootstrap tables but soon discovered it wasn't responsive on a small device so decided to recreate the meal plan using flexbox. I delibrately added this mealplan to the safe foods section as they are relatable to each other.

• Test
  It display full size on desktops and laptops. The supper section stacks well on top of each other and the other rows respond well to change in sreen size on smaller devices.

• Result
  The Mealplan displays well across all devices.

• Verdict
  The test has passed all the criteria and works like planned.

• Bug
  Theres a gap on the far right of the screen in mobile view. Especially visible in the skincare section.

• Fix
  I changed the div classes and margins on sample routine and skincare section and it seems to have removed the gap on all smaller devices except for iphone5. For the iphone 5 I added an overflow to the html and body tags

• Verdict
  No more gap on far right of screen in mobile.

• Bug
  The supper section on sample meal plan was not being responsive

• Fix
  I changed the flex classes on the div and it is seems to be responding well to different screen sizes.

• Verdict
  Sample Meal Plan is now working as planned.

• Bug
  The text in the routine section gets cropped off on mobile on both left and right sides

• Fix
  changed the margins around this section.

• Verdict
  Routine Section displays correctly on mobile.

First of all, I would like to thank my lovely mentor Simen (Eventyret_mentor) for guiding me throughout this project. He helped me to make my project a breeze to achieve and love his sense of humour too! He definately kept my spirits up after a long day. He gave me a lot of tips in order to improve my code and to implement some other features in order to make my website more user friendly. I look forward to our chats!

I would also like to thank my wonderful little human for inspiring me to make this website for him.

I want to thank our Slack community as well. Whenever I had a doubt, I did some research on Slack and I always found someone who has the same issue as I did. This helped me a lot to get to the solution sooner.
