Free form

 I'm been trying to find a free form submission service for the longest time. I was using google forms for the longest time but it's really ugly. It doesn't offer much in the way of customisation either. I finally came across something called Formspree and it's hard to believe that it's so easy to use! And it's free for 50 submissions a month! There's no way I'm going to get more than 50 submissions on my wee little portfolio site, so this suits me perfectly! Unfortunately the success page is a formspree page but hey, it's free. I can't complain. It makes me feel great when I manage to find workarounds 😁

Portfolio on GitHub

As part of the bootcamp, I've been building a portfolio website based on a template provided by the school. Honestly, I hate the template. It is hideous. But I guess it's a great starting point for someone who is unsure about what to do. It was also an opportunity for me to practice publishing a website online. Unfortunately, I had to pay for a webhosting service. After submitting my third update to my portfolio website, one of the instructors suggested that I could use GitHub Pages instead. *mindblown* This is amaziiiiing. And it's so simple. When I finally get down to creating my own portfolio from scratch, I am definitely going to put it up on GitHub instead. Also, speaking of GitHub, I'm slowly understanding how GitHub functions. It is taking me awhile. Especially because I don't use many of the functions that are available. I look forward to learning more and becoming a GitHub extraordinaire :D JK
