The code above was created by adapting the code in(https://dev.to/getamano/angular-8-x-9-x-internet-explorer-not-working-quick-solution-3ha7) as shown below:

// import 'classlist.js';  // Run `npm install --save classlist.js`.

@media screen and (max-width: 750px) {
  .column {
    flex: 55%;
    margin: none;
  }
  .form-div{
    float: none;
  }
  .img-class{
    float: none;
  }
}
@media screen and (max-width: 600px) {
  .row {

    margin: none;
  }
  .form-div{
    float: none;
  }
  .img-class{
    float: none;
  }

The code above was created by adapting the code in(https://www.w3schools.com/css/tryit.asp?filename=trycss_mediaqueries_flex) as shown below:

/* On screens that are 992px wide or less, go from four columns to two columns */
@media screen and (max-width: 992px) {
  .column {
    flex: 50%;
  }
}

/* On screens that are 600px wide or less, make the columns stack on top of each other instead of next to each other */
@media screen and (max-width: 600px) {
  .row {
    flex-direction: column;
  }
}

for making the registration page responsive. Moreover, the logic was referenced and the block of code is not copied as a whole.

Libraries Used

Design Choices

  • Use of Bootstrap CSS framework - I have used Bootstrap because it supports most browsers, is lightweight and responsive.
  • Use of ngx carousel library - I have used this carousel library since carousels effectively inform the user about the web application's features on the home page itself.
  • Use of white background - White background is easy to read on and is very natural. Dark text on white background enhances readability. The color-scheme of registration-form (white-smoke), navigation bar (grimmy's grey), footer (gun powder) and all carousel images are selected in a way that they are in contrast with the background color (white).
  • All the design elements are consistent throughout the web application. All the headings, sub-headings, paragraph text, footer options, form-elements and buttons follow the same layout and format. The position and colors of all the elements are consistent and are designed in a way to create a typographic design.
  • All the forms provide front-end validation and provide user feedback with proper error recovery messages.
  • The web application implements a responsive layout and is cross browser compliant.
