How I built this portfolio

When I started learning, I was tempted to Wordpress or something similar. However, since I'm at the starting phase, I decided to jump in with HTML, CSS and a litte bit of JavaScript.

The JavaScript Challenge

I've never really used JavaScript so I leaned into online resources such as stackoverflow to create a burger menu which toggles the mobile menu. Here's a bit of the code:

const toggleButton = document.querySelector('.mobile-toggle');
const navMenu = document.querySelector('.site-nav');

toggleButton.addEventListener('click', () => {

    navMenu.classList.toggle('is-open');

    const isOpen = navMenu.classList.contains('is-open');
    toggleButton.setAttribute('aria-expanded', isOpen);
});

This function simply toggles a CSS class, which keeps the JavaScript lightweight and the animation performance high.
