My Codecademy Journey

Imitation is the highest form of flattery, they say. As a test of my own frontend skills, I re-created Codecademy's course dropdowns below, to better keep track of my Codecademy progress on my own website. Replicating web design helps me verify that I've learnt enough to create frontends in HTML, CSS and JS.
