Design, build, and publish a complete, functional website from the ground up.

How to complete Web Architect

Building and publishing a site from scratch means going the full distance (structuring pages, styling them, and getting them onto a live URL anyone can visit), not just editing a drag-and-drop template. It's the moment you understand how the web actually fits together, from code to domain to deploy.

  1. Decide the scope: a single-page portfolio or a small multi-page site is plenty for a first build.
  2. Write the structure in HTML and style it with CSS; use a framework like Astro or Next.js only if you already know one.
  3. Test locally in your browser, checking that it reads well on a phone-width screen too.
  4. Push the code to a GitHub repo and connect it to a free host like Netlify, Vercel, or GitHub Pages.
  5. Optionally point a custom domain at it, then load the live URL in a fresh browser to confirm it's public.

Tips

  • Ship something small and live first, then iterate; a published one-pager beats an unfinished masterpiece on your hard drive.
  • Use a responsive meta viewport tag and relative units so the layout doesn't break on mobile.
  • Free static hosts auto-deploy on every git push, so your live site updates the moment you commit.

What counts as done

Your site loads at a public URL for anyone, renders correctly on desktop and mobile, and its pages and links all work.
