Final major project :Development Blog Week 6.

 Final major project. 

Development blog week SIX. 

 

What did I do this week? 

 

Following my giant this week is my third week in my pre-production .This week l created several mind maps for what I plan on the  webpages having . l created a logo name mind map were l listed how each logo name idea would be perceived by users .Alongside this l created a questionnaire in order to get unbiased information on which of the name between Dave , search and achieve would better suit my webapp idea; the majority of the respondents said that they preferred  the logo name search instead . (SEE IMAGES BELOW OF THE LOGO MIND MAP AND QUESTIONNAIRE). 

l created a footer mindmap to show what social media account i would like to see as well as the contact details and the physical address. (SEE IMAGE BELOW OF THE FOOTER  MINDMAP). 

This week, I also created mind maps for the different webpages and the content I would like each page to include. For the homepage, I wrote out what elements l would like to have such as the navigation bar, header image, and different job sectors I plan to feature. (See image below of the homepage mind map.) 

In addition, I created a jobs page mind map, where I detailed what I want the side menu bar to include, what the search bar should display, and what features the job board should have. (See image below of the jobs mind map.) 

I also developed a user page mind map, outlining the content and functionality I would like. This includes the navigation bar, user profile features, notification bell icon, CV application icon, and AI assistant button. I also planned the layout and content of the side menu. (See image below of the user page mind map.) 

Furthermore, I created an employers page mind map. This includes ideas for the subscription button, post-a-job feature, navigation bar, company profile, side menu, and the browse candidates feature. (See image below of the employers mind map.) 

I also designed a login page mind map, outlining what I want the sign-up and login sections to include. (See image below of the login page mind map.) 

I also used my mind maps as well as the color mood board that I created previously to create different color versions on what l would like my website to look like. 

The first one that I created was a neon green website based on the below mood board. (SEE BELOW THE MOCKUP WEBSITE I CREATE USING CANVA). 

 

 

 

The second website that l created is a neon green, black and white based on my below mood board. (SEE BELOW THE MOCKUP WEBSITE I CREATE USING CANVA). 

 

The third website that I created is a blue website that l made based on the content mind maps and based on my blue mood board. (SEE BELOW THE MOCKUP WEBSITE I CREATE USING CANVA). 

Breakthroughs that I made?   

I didn't make any breakthroughs this week. 

 

Plans for next week? 

Next week l plan on getting peer review on the different websites and which one they would prefer as well as creating the final logo, color palette as well as the typography i plan on having for my final idea.  

I also plan on creating promotional material such as business cards, flyers, email newsletters . 

I also plan on starting my build by coding the front end and the backend of the login page.
