CST272 Project No. 1

Getting Started—Create a Web Page

• To work on this assignment as well as all other projects for this course you will need to install the following "Workloads" from the Visual Studio installer: (1) "ASP.NET and web development" and (2) "Data storage and processing"; students who also are taking CST242 (Advanced Programming and Problem Solving with Java) additionally should install the ".NET desktop development" workload
   
• Start a new ASP.NET website project and develop an .ASPX web document of your own design with the following components:

1. The web document may include any content of your choice; it could be about yourself, something in which you are interested, something that you are studying, some person or persons or group that you like, or almost any other topic
2. There should be somewhere between ½ to 1 screen full of content; the amount of information presented is one element upon which the grade will be based
3. Use a variety of "block" formatting elements including paragraphs, headings (levels 1 through 6), unordered lists and ordered lists, etc.
4. Include various formatting elements including font size, boldface, italics, underlining, foreground color, background color, alignment and hyperlinks

• Grading is on a scale from zero (lowest) to 10 (highest); better grades are given to students who not only complete the specifications of the assignment above, but go beyond the requirements to create a logically meaningful/connected and stylistically pleasing web page

• Since Visual Studio projects consist of a large number of files in several directories, it will be necessary to create a ZIP file of the folder that contains the entire project.
   
• The completed project, which is the ZIP file that contains the entire application, is due to Prof. Struck as an attachment to a Brightspace dropbox by 11:59 p.m. on the date specified in the course outline.
