8. Interactive Resume

As a web developer, It is better to send your CV/Resume built with HTML & CSS rather than pdf or doc file. Building an interactive resume is one way to show your foundational skills while also making your resume impressive to clients/employers.

10. Create CSS Animations

They’re easy to build and have fun, you can create them without even having to know JavaScript. You can change as many CSS properties you want, as many times as you want. To use CSS animation, you must first specify some keyframes for the animation. An animation lets an element gradually change from one style to another.

11. Video Background Site

Fullscreen images used as backgrounds have an amazing visual impact, but you can use video background in exactly the same way and draw better attention. A good video background can easily make people stop and take notice, increasing the time they spend on the site. This works best for Travel and Restaurants landing pages.

13. E-Voting Form Template

Basics concepts of HTML and CSS like tags, ID, color, margin, padding, font, checkbox etc. are enough to build an E-Voting form. E- Voting system is used for online surveys and full system requires some PHP and Javascript knowledge as well, but for now you can leave that part and build Layout for the system using HTML & CSS only.

14. CSS Hamburger Menu

Overlays are very similar to links, except they have a transparent background and appear on top of the original page. A hamburger menu is an icon used on a website that, when clicked, opens to reveal a navigation menu. You can add these additional features to your dummy site projects (restaurant, e-commerce etc.
).

15. CSS 3-D navigation page
