Who I Am

Hi! I am a middle school boy who lives in New York City, and I built this website to share my book knowledge. Coding is one of my favorite things to do when I have free time, along with reading. So when I thought what kind of website I should make, it made sense to build a book recommendation site. I learned the basics of how to make a website from Codecademy. Codecademy is a free website that teaches you how to program. They teach html, css, javascript, python, and more. I enjoy coding so much because you can build anything with code, and I know how other websites are built.

Why coding is a great activity

Coding is very challenging, because it teaches you how to look for bugs in your code. If you forget one little element your whole website could go blank. Also Coding is great because you can share alot of your knowledge to other people.

How booky monster was made

This website was made from scratch, no word press no nothing. I started with the idea to make a website that had my summer reading list. At first I just did that, but after a while I wanted to take it to the next level. I wanted a home screen, and different age groups of books. I also wanted to have a navigation bar at the top of the screen so you could go back and forth quickly. With some help from my dad and some websites I managed to make a more complex website. I will update my website at least once a week.

If you are iterested in making your owm website, here are some sites that might be helpful.
