Introduction

Building this site is a hobby that in my spare time I have built using Bootstrap, php, javascript, html, css, JQuery and several other technologies.

The site is a work in progress and over time will develop. Currently there are the pages on the basic site, home, projects, about and contact, as layout in the navigation bar

Once registered and verified there is additional content to view such as a dashboard where you will have access to all the information you have registered with and should you need to change any of that information you can do it from the dashboard which you will need to be logged in for to gain access.

Some time ago I put a cookbook together just to demonstrate what was possible. The recipes are all from other sites and you can link to the source in the project.

All the projects as I complete them will be available via links below.

The accordion on the left if viewing on larrger screens or underneath on smaller screens has code snippets that can be copied and pasted for you to use with 1 click.
