afullstop's Issues

🎃🍂 Migrate HTML designs from gh-pages to js

Description

This project is a website viewable at https://afulls.top/notaperiod/?name=Github. Currently, we have pages which has different designs stored at /pages/ in gh-pages branch. We would like to migrate them to the new js branch created by @Vailfire.

🎃🍂 Randomized pages

🎃🍂 Use more of Jekyll's features

Description

This project is a website viewable at https://afulls.top/notaperiod/?name=Github. Currently, we have pages which has different designs stored at /pages/ as well as a main page 404.html. If you look into the code, you may see a lot of repeated information, especially in .

It would be more beneficial to keep the content of each "design" to a minimum, such that the code is as clean as possible.

🎃🍂 Improve the UI of the website

Goal

Welcome Hacktoberfest! The goal of this issue is to improve the UI of the website of this project.

Description

Currently the UI is very plain and doesn't have a lot of content. The goal is to create a nicer looking UI possibly with headers and footers and more content!

Be Creative!

For example, you could make the website change background every 10 seconds. Scroll down to see other suggestions.

The new design must not be intrusive with user experience. Eg. No bright red backgrounds.

Ideas (?)

Dont let the below ideas limit your creativity. Multiple designs can be created and a different one can be loaded every time a user enters.

• Dictionary styled definition of full stop. (@conscou)
• Changing background colors (@conscou)
• Kindergarten drawing styled webpage
• Changeable themes and interactive content?
• Implement animation (perhaps animate.css) (@anu0012)
• typed.js implementation (typed.js)
• (!!!!) A very cool parallax.js implementation

It would be amazing for you to comment down below if you are interested in this project!

🎃🍂 Improve Site Ranking (SEO)

Description

Welcome Hacktoberfest 2016! This task does not require previous programming experience. This project aims to remind people that this (.) is a full stop, not a period. Right now traffic to this site is minimal. The goal of this issue is to boost the site ranking of this project. There are several ways in tackling this issue:

• Adding site favicon #23
• Add site metadata #26
• Better linking with different pages
• Make the site worth visiting (?)
  And more...

🎃🍂 Make this website configurable to be able to suit many other definitions!

Description

Welcome Hacktoberfest 2016! The goal of this issue is to make the webpage content configurable. Currently, the webpage reminds users that this (.) is not a period, but a full stop. By doing magic with listening to URLs, how about making the words configurable? For example, if user inputs:

https://afulls.top/?incorrect=Chips?correct=Crisps?name=Stranger

It will show them This is a bag of crisps, not a bag of chips!

You can format the URL however you like, the above is only an example. The goal is just to make it easily modifiable and configurable.

Examples

• This is not a tire, it’s a tyre.
• These are not pajamas, they are pyjamas.
• This is not a cookie, it’s a biscuit.

Adding a favicon to the website

@choyiny Currently there is no favicon on the website, but I think it should have one. Can I work on this ?
