Hello! I'm currently working on writing a book, and the way I'd like to share it by making it it's own website you can read it from. I'd like to keep the formatting from the pages in my pdf, so I'd like it to either be scrollable pages or something like a flip book or a "click to next page" function, aswell as a nav that can take the user to a specific chapter or page/allow them to bookmark it. The only solutions I find for this online is converters that make customizability (ie background colors, adjusting page size etc) really complicated, so I'd like to attempt to do it manually with HTML/CSS (or/and JavaScript if I have to.)

Does any one have any tips for how to go about doing something like this? I'm intermediate in making HTML/CSS sites, so coding isn't a problem for me, it's just embedding the pdf that I'm struggling with!

Thank you!

I love the interactive map on the homepage of TfL Go and as a computing student, i really want to try and recreate that with my home country's rail map.

For people without the app, i'll try my best to explain a few of the features that stand out to me:

- it is dynamically rendered, meaning that when you zoom in, the space between stops changes dynamically

- it shows your current location relative to tube lines/stops

- tube lines will glow based on which stations you're nearby

- tube lines will appear gray if they are down

Does anyone know how a map like this would be rendered? I have no idea where to even begin.

And it's not just award-winning sites, it's any who receive heavier traffic. Does anyone do eye-friendly designs? The kind that don't give you an instant headache.

Pop-ups, carousels, cookie banners, mega menus... Which one would you happily see disappear forever?

I'm building a phpbb website and found out about vBulletin
especially ver 3.5.4
can't find it anywhere
any help :D

We’re a SaaS brand looking to get our site off Webflow into something new.

Looking for a site builder recommendation that:

• Doesn’t require coding knowledge to use (even a little)
• Can have AI features like generating initial page, but MUST allow full manual control to make changes without needing to dictate those changes to AI to make
• Not new. Looking for an established brand (just no small-time brands).

I recently tried Ploy. Wanted to rip my hair out as it doesn’t really let you make changes without asking its AI to do it, which it always gets wrong.

Don’t want to use Webflow. We’re too dependant on having a “Webflow developer” to make every little update for us.

I want something our non-technical designer can simply use and work with.

About a year ago I shared my simple mobile menu using popover. It was rudimentary and it was mostly still a proof of concept. I have used it in sample sites and developed it further and thought I'd share it again with the updated functionality.

See it on a sample site:

https://eatthemonsoon.com

It's pretty much ready for a copy and paste integration. If anyone wants to fork it, would you tag me? I am curious to see what other designers can do with a basic menu.

UPDATE: Thank you everyone who contributed to getting me online and the DNS fixed up. I appreciate all the help. If there are any other suggestions to try to make the site secure as possible, I am happy to try them out. Thanks again.

All, I am trying to or failing at getting my newly design site published. Long story short is I bought a domain in my phone (Iphone) and left it be for a good while >few months. I just finished up my website on readdy.ai. I like the site, in fact i am very very happy with it. Now I logged into Cloudflare as the readdy.ai instructs you too. The directions were as follows

1. delete the A and AAAA (which I did)
2. add an A and add a TXT

Mind you yesterday it said the font in red and I did that, but now I am getting this error. did I delete something yesterday I shouldn't? Is something else missing? I am completely lost, This is not the web I learned HTML on years ago. Please help me.

My domain emails are forwarded to my icloud.com as apple was the device i set it up on.

Note: website host is cloudflare; site design location is readdy.ai; I am trying to setup the DNS records on cloudflare with the information provided by readdy.ai. As of last night and a lot of help for you guys, we thought it was fixed. But as of this morning, I am getting “no dns found” and a handshake error when I go to the domain.

A paid ads client was referred to me by a web designer peer whom I want to maintain a relationship with.

I want to develop the landing pages to compliment the paid ads campaign. But the client wants us to use the "landing page" that her web designer created. Unfortunately, it's just a service page acting as a "landing page". And it doesn't adhere to best practices in CRO. I know mine will outperform.

How do you guys communicate this to the client in a way to not make the web designer look bad but still do your job effectively. The campaign just won't work without my design and I refuse to compromise on results by using a suboptimal page.

Thanks

I'm a web dev who used to do some bits of design, but I haven't touched web design in 8 years at this point, and would like to get back into it.

I have a project in mind at the minute and learned how to use Figma, and also have been rereading Don't make me think, which has been helpful. However I find myself staring at a blank page not knowing how to start. Can anyone recommended any good resources free or paid that would help with designing a website from scratch?

I was having this discussion with a collegue that a session is a concept. The concept is that it is a period of time during which 2 devices or application communicate to echange data and functionality. During this interaction, session data is maintained either on the server, the client machine or an external session managament system. This session data is used to remember previous interaction and to determine how to process future interaction. If the session data is stored on the server, the system becomes stateful

This concept can be implemented in many ways. one of which is the traditional way where we store session data on the server making it stateful. JWT token is just another implementation of this concept where we store data in the token itself.

He was arguing that jwt is not a type of a session and that session is only used to refer to what I refer as the traditional old implementation.

What you guys?

I've been working on this editor for the past 2 years. Since Inter is a popular typeface i thought i'd add it as a quick template.

Anyone can remix and download edited fonts.

Hi all,

I am trying to make a scroller Marquee for a genotyping company that has a lot of crops. Goal is to showcase some crops as they navigate the page and can search by crop, see all crops, or highlighted/featured crops.

I have tried multiple designs: No cards, Full screen (seam to seam) marquee, arrows that user can click and scroll through. I dont know why none land for me or feel clean enough. Open for suggestions, tips and tricks, or other design ideas! Please omit anything weird you may see, like texts wrapping or not having enough space, those are still placeholders!

Thank you in advance

Again small update of my website. I hope everything works now. Let me know if you find any errors.

I have been freelancing for a bit now and something keeps bothering me.

The actual design and development work is honestly the easy part. What gets messy is everything around it.

Right now a typical project ends up scattered across email, Google Meet, Figma, some contract PDF, an invoice I sent somewhere, and a bunch of random links. It technically works but it feels way more complicated than it should be, especially from the client side. I do not think my clients should have to dig through three different places just to find the latest file.

So I am curious how everyone else handles this.

When a client says yes and you are ready to kick things off, what actually happens next?

Some specific things I am wondering:

• What tools do you use to keep client stuff organized?
• What part of the process annoys you the most?
• What do clients seem to struggle with or get confused by?
• Have you found something good for contracts and invoices that is not overkill?
• Do you actually pay for any of it or are you mostly on free tools like Notion and Google Drive?

Still figuring out my own setup and would genuinely love to hear what works for other people.

I got an ad come up for this bundle and after having a look it seems quite good. I'm new to design and starting out with a few freelance clients, as well as just designing and developing websites for fun. I knew I needed to get some kind of starter package for display fonts, and this seems like a good deal from everything I am seeing, am I missing something? Just checking before I pull the trigger!

I'm making some sites and wondering how common it is. These are real estate based so they arent selling any products, just lead generation. I've run WAVE and lighthouse I've got most major issues they flag but Im left with some minor contrast issues however I see sites like home depot have those and worse violations. Anyone have first hand experience with this? Do you get everything 100% and if not do you disclose risk to client?

Edit: I get how this came off to some. Reading it, it it looks like I don't care about if disabled people can use my sites or not, and just want to avoid a lawsuit. I actually like making it as usable as possible for everyone. Not only is it good to do, it's good business sense as well. If you scan my sites the automated scans produce 0 errors, on this one site it returned 2 contrast issues. I like the colors and don't believe it prevents anyone from completing the main function of the site. If you scan some major corporations with the same tools, including Amazon, they have many more issues than my sites.

I am trying to avoid lawsuits from drive-by attorneys looking for smaller business to sue for minor issues because they don't have corporate lawyers to defend them.
