Survey Form

When I first embarked on my coding journey, I had no idea how transformative it would be. One of the earliest projects I created was a Survey Form, a task I completed while following freeCodeCamp’s YouTube tutorials. At the time, I was just beginning to grasp HTML and CSS, and this project became my playground for experimenting and learning. The form itself is simple yet functional, featuring a sleek design with responsive elements. Users can fill out their name, email, age, and provide feedback on their experience with freeCodeCamp. I implemented dropdown menus, radio buttons, and checkboxes to ensure the form was user-friendly and intuitive. The form also includes a text area for suggestions, making it a comprehensive feedback tool. Here are some highlights of the project:

• Design and Layout: I styled the form using CSS, incorporating a clean and professional look. The background features a gradient overlay combined with an image to give it a modern feel.
• Responsiveness: With media queries, I ensured the form adjusts gracefully on various screen sizes, a small but essential step in modern web design.
• Interactivity: Elements like placeholders and validation messages enhance the user experience, ensuring inputs are clear and purposeful. Creating this form was more than just writing code; it was an exercise in problem-solving, creativity, and patience. Each line of code taught me something new—how to align elements, how to make forms accessible, and the importance of clean, maintainable code.

Looking back, I’m amazed at how much I learned from this project. It was a stepping stone in my journey, and it’s still one of the projects I cherish most. I encourage anyone learning to code to start small and embrace the learning process. Projects like this may seem simple, but they are the foundation of building something truly amazing.
