Create an account on Glitch.com(if you haven’t already) and open up the CI21 Glitch Collection. This is our class’ archive of Glitch templates that you’ll remix to get started.
Use the files in this project to answer the questions below. For text-based questions, use semantic <p> tags to respond. The entirety of the questionnaire should be properly formatted HTML in the index.html file on your remixed Glitch project.
The questions begin open-ended and gradually begin to get more technical. Don’t worry if you don’t know how to answer later questions, just do the best you can!
When you are done, post a link to your Glitch profile page on this Questionnaire Response page. You’ll need to make sure you have a Dropbox account to edit the Dropbox paper doc.
