Web Development: HTML + CSS only Website
Let’s create a simple HTML + CSS only website. There are a lot of simple website we can create with just HTML and CSS. For this project, let’s create a restaurant website. It can be your imaginary restaurant or a real one. The project should have at least 4 pages: home, menu, location, and about.
Think about branding (logo), the pages that you’ll be included in the project, and the layout, where the logo, navigation, and content will be laid out on each page. Sketch out your website first so that you get an idea of how it will look before you start implementing it. You can use any drawing tool that is available in Myanmar or download the free GUI tool Pencil from https://pencil.evolus.vn/. You can find tutorial for Pencil at https://pencil.evolus.vn/WikiIndex.html.
Include background color/texture, text color, typography, and images. Make sure every thing — color, typography, images, and design — works together to create a yummy website (after all this is a restaurant website and you should make every one who look at the website to want to come and eat at the restaurant)
Here are a few examples:

Tusk Thai Cusine http://www.tuskthaicuisine.com/
Esan Thai http://esanthai.com/menu/
