- Yes, we used HTML to code for this assignment.
- Yes, we used a standard library when we used code from Bootstrap.
- Coders are angry because the world of code is always changing, and everyone wants to be the best. They all want to be good at their craft and feel useful, but if the more valued language changes to another one, someone is likely going to be left behind and nobody wants to be that person. That's why coders are very defensive about their preferred languages, and they are very competitive when it comes to understanding multiple languages.
- How similar or different do you think Tim Berners-Lee’s original vision for The World-Wide Web is from today’s web? State ways where you think today’s web is better, and today’s web is worse.
- Out of the four databases, I preferred SGD. It provided a lot of information about the gene, and the page had a nice flow. It was user friendly, and the font wasn't too small. UniProt was similar and a close second, but I liked how SGD provided lots of information right there on the page instead of through separate links, like UniProt did for almost all of its information. The web page I liked the least was Ensembl because it had little information on the gene, and the diagram/chart didn't have a header, label, or description. Moreover, its overall layout was unappealing, seeming a bit congested without a smooth flow.
